How did the Giants go 71 yards in 40 seconds? Let’s see:

22 yard completion on Reeves;
11 yard completion on Reeves with a 15 yard facemask penalty tacked on;
19 yard pass to Kevin Boss on Reeves to convert a 3rd and 10;
That’s 67 yards in three plays. New York scored on a short pass to Amani Toomer right after the Boss completion.

Reeves is the closest thing to a piece of horse you know what... I can't stand the guy, I almost hate him as much as I hate Roy Williams.

People got mad at me for wanting Ed Reed over Roy Williams...:rolleyes:

To be fair, the stats don't reflect what coverage was called. They were playing zone. And Wade himself is reported to have said after the half, the players were out of position. And it was plural...

It is obvious that Reeves blows in zone-coverage, but zone coverage isn't just the responsibility of one guy.

Roy was also in that 22 yard pass play. He probably got burned in his zone as well, allowing Eli to make an easy throw in between the two players...

I have seen worse coverage for sure.
Reeves didn't cost us this game.

He was targeted all night long. They went after him over and over again, it seemed. Doesn't mean that he was all to blame, but I would like an upgrade at corner for next season.

Cutting Aaron Glenn came back to haunt us...

Reeves has been getting beat all year. This is news?

Still, to say that cutting Aaron Glenn was the problem is too simplistic. It's like getting married to someone, it ending and divorce, and romanticizing the girlfriend you dumped a decade before - who knows how THAT would have worked?

Instead, I think we need to acknowledge that Reeves isn't ready to start in the NFL and we should go get a SHUTDOWN CB in the draft. This is a deep year for CB's and we should be able to get a top one at #22.

We also should go after a SS who remembers how to wrap up on a tackle and knows what to do in pass coverage (instead of pointing and looking around when he's been beaten...again...and again...and again).

I have yet to be convinced that anyone named Jacques should be playing football.

For years now, the secondary has been the liability on defense. I watch every game and I like our chances better at 3rd and short than 3rd and long.
