Short passing game is the way to beat the Giants defense. Don't give JPP or Vernon the chance to pin their ears back. Eat clock and keep making 1st downs. By 4th quarter Rod Smith is doing his best MBIII impression. :D

From the spot he caught the ball? Yes.

IF he did what a smart player would've done, charge up the sideline until FORCED OUT OF BOUNDS, he gets to at least the 42 easily.

The issue that night was 4 field goals and only one TD. The Giants ended up leading the league in red zone defense (lowest TD percentage) last season.

He walked off of the field under his own power...then he decided to add drama by bending down in the lockerroom and play to the cameras.

He got hit hard but legally.

Not sure about that.... plenty of guys have walked off and then found out later they have torn their ACL. That was a clean hit, but it definitely looked awkward because his foot had just come down and the hit occurred right while he was planting. Lots of torque and force on OBJ's knee and tibia/fibula.

Cool. We have had more of them than NY 3 of the last 4 seasons. But in your mind they "always" flip a switch before going 6-10.


yea they have also seen the SB more recently than us too. but lets forget that fact. or the fact they went as far as we did and swept us. Lets completely forget that. Lets also forget they did it with a rookie coach.

Im not saying the GIants are SB bound, but recently they have done it better than we have. Recently they have done the opposite than us and has had success. Do i need to hear "Eli is done" year after year" no, Eli wins. Say what you want about the guy, or what part of the team, but at the end of the day he can say hes been to the SB when Dallas had to buy tickets. Does it suck yes, but lets not write off what the Giants are able to do while we do this this this and this and still have very little success, or talk how the game came down to one catch or they needed the refs to win them the game.

We have had a HC prove to us time and time and time again he just doesnt get it, each big game in the playoffs our team comes out flat. But lets write that off for the rah rah crowd.
Do we have a better TE, sure, has that helped? no
Do we havea better RB, sure, has that helped, not last year.
Do they have a better number 1 WR, ? Yes, has it helped, no.
Did they go as far as us and swept us? yes. Why? We can say this and that but at the end of the game, they won, we didnt.

Our coach has had plenty of time to learn on the job, i dont think its hard to say "lets see some results"

Twitter is saying OBJ has a high ankle sprain but he is back on the sideline with no noticeable limp.

The Giants look vulnerable to the short passing game. Somewhere Dak is smiling.

Rewatch both Giants games from last season........we had no problem moving the ball. This drama only gets played out coz they beat us twice. Some say well they had Daks number. BS...first loss was Dak's first game as NFL player and he played well enough for us to win the second one. We just came up short........ I'm 100% confident if we play our game and stay away from silly mistakes, we will win.

In my opinion, Kizer needed to stay in college. He is at least 2 years away from being a NFL caliber QB.
