First 20 minutes just lulling them into a false sense of confidence maybe?

I’m saying. If you would’ve turned this one with 5 minutes to go in the first half, you would think the Eagles are playing a great game.

anybody's game still

just feels like if we had pocession more, we’d be in control. giants have had the ball for what seems forever.
we’re not stopping them at all offensively. their running and passing freely. its disheartening to watch.
we’re stopping ourselves offensively….as usual
really wish we had that demps return fumble back. he’s determined to make up for it looking at his next couple returns.

4th and 26!!!!

It’s probably easier if he doesn’t get a full head of steam through a wide-open hole.

But I’m no coach or anything.

by D3Keith on Nov 9, 2008 10:21 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Exactly. Any back who gets through the first line untouched is going to be tough to deal with. Jacobs is even tougher… but the problem is the same. We need to stop them at the line. Jacobs doesn’t have the speed or agility to bounce it outside or change direction a ton if he’s met at the point of attack.

by JasonB on Nov 9, 2008 10:24 PM EST up reply actions   0 recs

Honestly though...

They have Jacobs and Ward
We have Westbrook and Buckhalter

Couldn’t we be doing this if we made an effort? If Andy cared about running the ball?

They are challenging. Waste of a timeout.

That will be their second timeout used this half.

by Nah_Roots on Nov 9, 2008 10:32 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

that should put them down to 1 TO left

by 0sirys on Nov 9, 2008 10:33 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

They might get this call back because his foot may have been behind the line of scrimmage, and it’s only a penalty if your entire body is past. Don’t be surprised if this doesn’t go our way.

by D3Keith on Nov 9, 2008 10:40 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

that eli over-the-line throw, and then the very next one where Boss dropped it in the end zone – they both point to the fact that we cannot or willnot cover tight ends. they’re so open on us, that it’s as if they have 12 men on the field versus our 11.

If we don’t get a stop here I think it’s over.

Like I have said before, this team has serious consistency issues on both sides of the ball and special teams. Every week there is a different issue. I wish for once they could play 60 minutes of good football on both sides of the ball.

by FuquaManuel on Nov 9, 2008 10:46 PM EST reply actions   0 recs

That’s what I told the Giants fans who were wondering if I was all hyped for this game.

Haven’t really seen my team put 60 together, not sure why I’d expect it now, but if they do, they can beat anyone.

Given how the stretch & straight on runs have worked, I don’t know why they bother varying it up inside the 15. Straight ahead = mauling.

no way we’re getting them off the field without giving up more points. actually we might get off the field, but that’ll be because they burn out the remaining 12 minutes on this last drive and take a knee to win the game.

His ankle was not over “the line”, therefore it is a fumble.

because of them.

4 mins. is a lot, 1 TO and the warning … but the thing is they are not going to stop the run anyway, so basically we’re screwed if they kick.

… problem is the smart thing to do (by the book) is kick here, but the birds are down timeouts and ca’t stop the run.
