That was very Bavaro-esque. Him manhood just went supernova with that play. He needs to be used more in the passing plays. Gilbride has gone away from our strength...again. I formation with Hedgecock and Jacobs. Call "I 32 iso" then "I 31 iso". Do some play action and watch Boss, The Real Steve Smith and Super Mario get loose. I all starts with the Juggernaut following Hedgecock.

While I absolutely 100% agree with you, Jacobs has been crap this year, which has made it hard for Gilbride to get anything going off the running game. I don't know what's up with Jacobs, but he's not nearly the same player.

I like being a monday morning quarterback and I think I can tell you what is wrong with Jacobs. The plays the Gilbride has been calling for Jacobs is not really his strong suit. He keeps calling stretch plays. Jacobs is a North-and-South runner. He needs to square his hips as fast as possbile and he is being tackled going east-west right now. The last game, even though we lost, was one of his better games. They called draws, delays and a bunch of plays to the 2 and 1 hole for Jacobs. Jacobs can bounce it to the outside but he needs to establish the inside run first. Just let him follow Hedgecock and a pulling Snee all day long. It is a beautiful thing to watch.

Also, teams are stacking the line. They have 8 and 9 man fronts. You can actually call play action on every play when Jacobs is in.

Jacobs has been more than fine the last couple weeks. We keep throwing deep and keep missing, and can't sustain drives because of it. Either we start hitting those or we need to keep it more simple. The level of difficulty in executing or passing game is a little ridiculous right now.

i agree, we need to start playing more ball control & give our defense a chance to rest during games... it's good to take a shot downfield every once in a while but not on every drive... the 3 & outs & short drives are killing us & giving our opponent excellent field position

My only problem with Eli right now is the delay of game penalties. Those are drive killers.

we sure do. cant tackle and hit hard where two years ago we hit harder than anybody. is it sheradin's fault not giving the defense a real sense of urgency? we might not make the playoffs and we started the day in first place and end it in third. unbelievable.

5-0 against crappy teams & 0-3 vs. good teams... guess that means we're not really contenders this year... unless this team can do something about their piss poor pass coverage, we mine as well forget about postseason play... we still have some very tough teams left to play & we need to go at least 6-2 the rest of the way to give ourselves a legitimate shot to get in to the playoffs this year, especially w/so many good teams in our conference... i don't see it happening this year.

Kenny Phillips going down was a big loss. Add that Aaron Ross has been injured as well and we have 2 of our starters in the secondary out.

3rd down and goal from the 20 yd line & we call a freakin' draw play... unbelievable! >=(

4 losses in a row.

The Giant defense is god aweful. Someone fire the defensive coordinator. The SOB was calling blitz when they should have rushed 4 and dropped everyone and their mothers back. First five games were great because the players remembered what Spags left behind but as Sheridan puts his finger prints on the defense they get worse and worse.

We are pretty much screwed- playing with a lack of confidence. Sheridan is in a little over his head, but what is our approach on offense right now. 1st and goal at the 4 and we don't try to put one in the endzone? When a TD basically ends the game and any other results leaves the door open? That was just mindboggling. The D played well up untill the last drive, which was a disaster. But they had made several big plays in the 4th quarter before that.

V, I know what you mean man I'm watching the game as soon as they decided on kicking the field goal I knew they lost the game.

Brandon Jacobs needs shut his trap and play football. This chump is talking to much shyt and not backing it up. After every somewhat decent run he acts stupid too. Almost Shockey like with get a bit annoying.

started out 5-0 & now i'd be shocked if we ended the season even at 9-7... i knew this tough stretch after the easy start would tell the real story, & the real story is we're just not a good football team.

Sheridan definitely is way over his head. His play calling is HS level ****. Also, the offensive play calling is in question again.

Jacobs rushed 11 times for 67 yards. That is 6.1 a pop. Eli is at his best on play action. Can we please get back to the old battering ram approach. Please.

Was at the game yesterday and had that great giant's fan feeling that you get when you know you are going to let the opposing team come back and beat you. Of course, they obliged. They really suck. Thank god for the Yankees.
