Giants' opener at Dallas

[cagedlion]

1. a stuttering, fumbling offense
David Wilson is benched.......2 fumbles lead to Dallas scores.

And there goes the running game!

Worst OL and worst LB units in the NFL. How Fewell and Gilbride keep their jobs is beyond me. Monte Kiffen was available, but the lazy Giants didn't fire Fewell. And fuck Coughlin - this team is unprepared to play.

 

[cagedlion]

The Giants are worse than I thought. They will fight Philly for the cellar.

Completely unprepared to play. Perfect example of this idiot Gilbride. Wilson goes out of the game so they're going with Scott. Third and three and they call a run for Scott up the middle instead of putting the ball in Eli's hands? Nothing changing to move this team forward. The defense starts with the pass rush and tonight they're letting Romo drink coffee and eat a piece of cake before getting rid of the ball.

The Giants are worse than I had thought. They will fight Philly for
the cellar. The Giants suck. This account is pitiful.

 

[Messiah717]

I'm tired of watching this team come out to start seasons like this. When they're left wondering why they can't get over the 9-7 or 8-8 hump this is the reason.

 

[vette322]

....and I thought the DL was supposed to be new and improved...They look totally ineffective - Romo has thrown 45 passes and ZERO sacks.

Offensive and defensive schemes are stale - same BS as last year. Too many guys living off of 2 SBs.

 

[cagedlion]

A total defeat. One dimension offense. No dimension defense.
Giant D is worse than last year. Lack of talented depth at RB
was bad waiting to happen........LBs stink. And where is that
Giant pass rush? Fewell and Gilbride need to be fired.
And TC is finished.

The bottom line is that Eli and his receivers are the strength. No team can cover Nicks, Cruz and Randle at the same time.

Which is why when the Giants "threw away" a possession when they gave the ball to Scott around mid-field was so stupid. That was a big possession, seeing how they are in chase mode and trying to keep it to a 1 possession game.

 

[Messiah717]

Only the Dallas Cowboys in their own house would have the Giants still with a chance to win this football game. This would be a disaster of a loss for the Cowboys if the Giants pull it off.

 

[cagedlion]

WHAT AN HORRIFIC CALL! An Offense with 3 ace receivers,
you throw to a backup RB who never saw the ball............
Hey Coughlin, you don't even have a team.

 

[Messiah717]

Just run the damn football at that point if that's what you're going to do.

 

[Messiah717]

It's a shame because Dallas was at the point they couldn't stop a thing down the field. If they kept up the vertical game between the three receivers they had a great chance to pull out another improbable win in Dallas.

 

[vette322]

Just another dumb fucking play call late in the game that cost them. How the fuck do you dump it off to Scott, when you have 3 receivers that can't be covered? Typical Gilbride - reminds of that dumb call at the end of the Eagles game last year - throwing a fly pattern down the sideline (and getting an offensive PI), when all they needed was few yards for the GW FG.

Cowboys were ripe for the taking at the end, and the Giants didn't make them pay.

 

[cagedlion]

Giant offense had 6 turn overs. This team will not have
clock possession on their side. So, where is the Giant
running game.............in the toilet!

 

[Messiah717]

The Cowboys don't impress me at all. They're the same talented but flawed team as they have always been. They just turned Garrett into an extra cheerleader. Before the final pick six the turnovers were 5-1. The Giants shouldn't of been anywhere close in this game.

That's true and being a Cowboys fan it does worry me, but I think they will improve as the season goes along. Complete new D and a lot of changes on O. I don't worry about the D and hope the O gets it head out of it's butt. One big difference from last year is the O line played a lot better. That's encouraging.
