The Giants have a good run D. Even with Edge they may have been shut down last night.

Well, with Peyton, it'd not hype. Eli's praise is all as fake as Velveeta "cheese" though.

I like velveeta cheese better than eli :)

[quote=Beemnseven;213136]As much as I'd love to be wrong, I think the Giants are gonna win this one fairly easily.

Something tells me the Colts are long overdue for a letdown season.[/quote]

WRONG!!! hahaha... Giants LOST!

[quote=12thMan;213572]I lied about going to bed....Mr. Nichols?? What was that bullshit about? Just proves, LaVar is more into himself than he was leading on. I think he had one or two tackles tonight. Good luck with Mr. Nichols Giants fans![/quote]


The DoubleNichols, school of hard knocks, I thought was pretty funny. I know you think its because of login name, but if it was someone else I would have thought it was just as funny. Those guys, always try to come up with something that if there own. Some one started the "U" thing, then its "the" infront of every school now. then its giving their High School some cred. I have no problem with guys trying to be original or funny when introducing themselves.

I thought physically, #55 looked pretty good. He got some pressure here and there, and was cover Dallas a lot, pretty much all night when he was on the field. I went to bed, not sure what kind of stats Dallas had other than the TD catch, when Stahan was covering him (what the hell was that about)

I still think the O has the ability to put some points up. The D will get better for G-men over time. they have a new secondary and a couple new LBs. as the year goes on, thats the team we are going to be trying to beat out for the division.

Me too, the stuff IS good. It's just not real cheese, but hey, just let me enjoy it and don't tell me what it really is and there won't be any problems. :D

Like I said, I love to be wrong about the Giants winning!

Re: Colts/Giants
 

Was it me or did it look like Pierce was leaning over his linemen trying to hear the calls that Payton was calling out then shifting the D. Did anyone catch Aringtons intro "Double nickles from the scool of hard knocks" I did not see him hit anyone the whole game.

I caught it. What an idiot... so glad he's gone.

why is that being an idiot. Football is a game where you try and get an advantage over the other team. Pierce is a very UNDERRATED MLB in the NFL. He probably prepares more than half the LBs in the NFL. that was he does during film study, he can listen to audibles and call change the D. Thats what a MLB does. I dont see how that makes him an idiot. He played very well for us, should have gone to probowl. He was playing very good for NY last year when he got hurt, and notice how the D started to go to crap after he was hurt.

No, I think he was calling Arrington an idiot not Pierce.

I think Pierce is to defense what Manning is to offense in terms of acumen and that sort of thing. Pierce was trying to jam Peyton's calls and audible over him.

Re: Colts/Giants
 

Some might say that the signing of Mark Brunell factored heavily in not being able to sign Antonio Pierce to a long term contract. Same for Fred Smoot.

Not that I'm trying to start a firestorm with that comment or anything.

:D

Re: Colts/Giants
 

I'd take the Brunell signing over Pierce all day long.

I tell you what was another good [I]non-signing [/I]a lot of us are not totally aware of - Courtney Brown. He's out again with a knee injury. Just think, what two years removed from not signing him, I wonder if a guy like Andre Carter is able to come to DC because we passed C. Brown??

Man, you're not kidding. Courtney Brown -- what a sad-luck case he is.

Incidentally, one of the players I'll be watching closely is Andre Carter. He got zero pressure on anyone in preseason, and with only 4 sacks in San Fran last year, I'm not as optimistic as some are about his signing. We'll see what kind of contribution he'll make with Daniels on the other side.
