The Offense sucks and the Defense sucks.

61 yard Field Goal and the Giants lose again, What a joke of a Team.

Giants' owners are playing twiddly winks as their team looks and plays pathetically!
3rd and 2 late 4th quarter inside Eagles 20, Giants go for FG on missed first down.
Giant D has more holes than Swiss cheese in 4th quarter. Eli, what is there to say............
time to retire!

Yes indeed. It is going to be a long losing year!

Awww Shucks..........I'm a loser.

2 fucking rushing first downs. Giants' O is way too predictable,but to not get a game winning TD
with the ball on the Eagle 2 foot line! This team deserves to lose........AND THEY DID LOSE!
(I cannot drive home this point enough!) LOL

This is the same Shit as last season. If I do recall they lost a bunch of games in the last few minutes or in OT.

 

[cagedlion]

^^^^you recall correctly. But what's really knawing at my grey cells is the Giants are worse than
the Jets. I know this does not sit well in Giant fandom!

 

[cagedlion]

Next game maybe McAdoo should put a leash around the neck of the cavorting dog that Odell Beckham
portrayed after one of his TDs. No question the guy has talent, but he acts like an immature asshole which, in my
opinion, brings down his game. And in the end all the Giants got was a humiliating loss.

...Raiders failed to show up for the game and got embarrassed.

Yeah I fell asleep on the couch and when I got up I checked the score on the Internet. I have a feeling this is going to be another losing Season for both our Teams.

^^^^^ Outstanding stuff, Classic to say the least on both Al and Bo'....

I totally agree with you:
"the greatest combination of power and speed I've ever see...in fact, the greatest athlete I've ever seen".

I once (literally) ran into the great Jimmy Brown in 79, while skating on the promenade at Venice Beach. With my head down, picking up speed while skating up a hill of concrete; I ran smack into Jimmy's chest, which knocked me backwards on my ass. Brown was looking away when I ran into him, was kind enough to lend me a hand up, yet he never moved when I ran smack into his chest with my head down.....

I've always thought of Jimmy Brown and Barry Sanders when I watched the infallible Bo'. IF only, IF only his career wouldn't of ended on injury, I have no doubt Bo would of re-set the bar for all RB's. Imo, he did just that in a short time, and would of re-set alltime records for all RB's....

Never ever have I seen a RB/FB like Bo', never. Much like Brown he'd go through you, over you, around you, or flat out drag defenders along. Like Sanders, quick as lightning with feet going one way, torso the other.....

Imo, Bo' also reset the bar for Baseball Players. He ushered in the era of the bigger, faster, quicker, stronger athlete, who could do it all.

Sad to say, but I only see the Giants as a spoiler. Giants are firmly ensconced in last place at 0-3.
Division foes are all at 2-1.
