[QUOTE=Mattyk;971991]Since the bye the D has shown some signs of improvement. Can't just slam Haslett all the time when the D is playing bad and not acknowledge him when the D is playing better. I'm not a big fan of him but he deserves some credit right now.[/QUOTE]

Id say so. 11 out of 12 quarters if really sort of shut down D. Fourth quarter against Dallas being the exception. Giants moved the ball alot but we kept them out of the endzone. Holding penalties and interference penalties being handed out like excuses by those that want to say the refs gave us the game but if they could keep up with us they wouldnt need to hold or interfere rite?

Ridiculous. The guy was pulling Monty out of the pile by his foot. What was he suppose to do? Let the guy injure him? Do they ever use common sense when handing out these fines? :confused:

That's what happened in the 91' season as well, right. All those teams just kept.....beating themselves.
It was awesome.......
Having the #1 Offense meant no more then than it does now.

[quote=Chico23231;972082]guess i dont understand why fans dont want to give credit to their own team.

Giants beat themselves? that sounds like a giants fan to me.[/quote]


Hell, even our resident Giants fan (giantone) didn't even say this crap. :laughing-




Haslett's defense has been on point the past 3 games. (minus that one quarter in Dallas) The only thing that bothers me is the lack of a pass rush. I'd like to see more stunts being ran on the DL.

Talk about ridiculous, the article shows that Ravens' Kruger was fined for wearing his jersey "too high". I watched the replay of Ravens game recently, I could see how Kruger violated the uniform rules but Kruger did same thing two games before and there was no fine for him mentioned. NFL really need to chill out the fining, it looks like as if they were on power high or something.

a lot of times they give a warning first. like they di to portis or ST about shoes and socks before the starting fining them for it.

Bingo,we can discuss who didn't do what for days,weeks ,months and years but at the end it is this simple.

there are a couple scenarios where the Skins and Giants meet one more time at FedEx in the wildcard round. that would be an amazing game of the week!

The Redskins would have all of the momentum. But the Giants have shown in the recent past how resilient they can be. It would be a great game.

....or at Met Life.

I think the only way we meet at Met Life is for the Championship game, I'm ok with that plan.

edit: I was wrong, if the Giants and the Skins both win out and Chicago and Seattle have some odd losses, we could be 5th seed at 10-6, and you all are 4th @11-5

I would rather play the Giants at Met Life than FedEx. Giants are always killers on the road in the playoffs. They don't play as well at home.

This I agree with, I like the Giants away better.
