Folk; talking about folk looking at mcbrair and mcbrair looking at him, folk siad ball wasnt properly placed,;

mickey also said that folk hit the ground and dirt flew up

they asked do you put another holder there; mickey says you may look at romo holding , reflecting on if you want to do that or not

on barber, mickey says baloney when you dont talk, explain yourself and hide behind the media, its in your contract to talk someone said on the show

mickey is getting on barber big time, puts the ball on ground and score, after only getting 135 yards and looked like giants are on verge of quiting, then barber gives the giants a gift wrap with the fumble;

The count, you sure were right, mickey is raking barber big time for not talking etc

you try to cover rb with inside linebacker, that shouldnt happen

ran ball 23 times for 45 yards, thats not even 2 yards a carry and your going to run it more, the offensive line was horrible to me, they stunk the place up

first punt return cowboys gave up since 2007 mickey thinks, and there were 3 guys right there, and dive from bobby carpenter misses, etc, blame where the blame belongs, but dont blame it on the offensive coordinator jason garrett who threw for about 400 yards

explain flozell foul; i thought it was a dead ball foul and would be marked off in 2nd half, mickey said he looked like no one hit him or etc, but flozell just pushed the guy for whatever reason

somene said how tuck grabbed his facemask; and flozell was upset

thats it;

Carpenter didnt dive.

he leaped over a giants player who was on his rear end right in his way. It was all he could do.

The Giants that just scored a touchdown, going 70 yards on 4 plays, looked to Mickey like they were on the verge of quitting?

Spagnola is simply showing his lack of perspective, which occurs quite often.

He has it out for Barber in particular and has since his favorite in that race (Julius Jones) lost out.

No kidding. Mickey hates Barber, someone should really call him on that nonsense.

Thanks for the summary as always.

That's ridiculous.

Barber sucked yesterday. Nothing wrong with someone calling him out on it.

The fact is that Barber has sucked for much of this year... And last.

Barber is right up there with Reggie Bush when you include the money as the most overrated rb in the league

I'd prefer it coming from someone who hasn't had an axe to grind. It isn't like he hasn't shown a tendency to do that. He was a longtime critic of Quincy Carter. Once he decides he doesn't care for a player, it is on.

I'd also prefer it coming from a non-imbecile. Unfortunately, Spagnola does not qualify.

I am not pleased that Barber is fumbling and it is a problem. But the last thing I am waiting on is validation from Mickey Spagnola of all people.

No, before we fumbled, mickey and the announcer were saying, when we were leading 10-0, and driving, then barber fumbled, but before then the announcers and mickey said that looked like the giants were going to cave in, destruct, because we were dominatiing the giants till then.

Quincy was an ******* to all the media. Plus he was a personal disaster and a doper. I have no problem with anyone having anything against him.

Sorry, but suggesting that Mickey is against Barber because he still carries a torch for a player who's been off the team for two years is just silly.

Barber right now is an average at best runner. Even your Coach Parcells said that a RB who puts the ball on the ground isn't worth it.

Besides, I thought Mickey usually got called out for being such an apologist and homer. Now he's being too critical?

Exactly, that fumble turned it around for them for a little. But, the defense still was the problem

The kicking situation is more concerning than Barber's fumbles. The coaching staff has now had weeks to figure this out and make an adjustment, but their blind "hear no evil, see no evil approach," now has the kicker and holder pointing fingers at one another. Its the coaching staff's responsibility to figure out what is going on and fix it, but they continue to do the blindfold act. Pathetic. We still don't know if the problem is McBriar or Folk. I doubt the coaching staff does either. I be DeCamillis wants to make a change and he must be growing frustrated with the inertia at the top.

Yep. He isn't all that once they figured out it's much easier to bring him down at the legs. I was surprised he got away with it as long as he did.



We need a different starter there, IMO.

How hard is it to hold a football? Really? Can anyone who actually did that at some level explain to someone who never played the game how hard it is. I feel like that can't be a very complicated thing to do. but then again, I never did it so I'd love to have some views on this. I can't really believe that this can be somehow a problem.

How hard is to fix an obvious problem?

Screw Garrett too, this performance was lacking substance across the board, save the QB and the RCB.

It's not that easy. At all. It takes some athletic ability and very good hand-eye coordination. That's why Jimmy had Novacek do it, because he had the best hands on the team.

It's not surprising at all IMO that McBriar can't do it. He's on the team because he can punt the ball a long way and that's it.
