Giants overrated defense fattened up on shit QBs during the winning streak, but they couldn't get it done against Tony Romo when it counted. So much for their big talk. All this team does is talk. Another disappointment. Now I have to listen to Dallas fans brag about how they ended NY's season for the next seven months.

Jerry Reese has serious work to do.

Meh. The hands to the face on Wynn was touchy and helped you keep the ball. And the non PI call on your CB against Terrence Williams, which would have given us the ball inside the 10 cost us points. No way the giants lost bc of the refs.

To say nothing of the phantom call on Carr that took away a fumble.

In all seriousness man, fuck them. They really are a classless bunch and proved it repeatedly all week long. I know this team's not going anywhere, but I honestly have not enjoyed a victory this much in a while.

And at Coughlin trying to say he doesn't notice when the players talk like that. Total horseshit on his part.

well after starting 0-6 it was just an inevitability for the season to end. despite the mini run in the middle of the season that kept alive a glimmer of hope this season was nothing short of disastrous. its hard to point the finger cause in reality each part of the team failed miserably. whether it was the offense who had a turnover every single game, the defense who couldn't stop a pop warner team in the beginning of the year, or the special teams who gave up numerous kick returns for touchdowns.

But on the flip side there were some players who had a great year. Antrel Rolle had nothing short of a spectacular year. During games when it looked like the team was going half speed Rolle was everywhere on the field making plays. Jon Beason who was basically left for dead after multiple serious surgeries throughout his career came over in a trade and from day one became a force on the defense. Justin Pugh also played very well. Sure there were some rookie mistakes here and there but on an ancient injury riddled offense line Pugh showed he can be an anchor on that line for years to come. Despite the lack of TD's Victor Cruz showed he was worth the money and was once again Eli's go-to guy all year. Might be some other players I am missing but those are the ones that most stick out at this point.

Jerry Reese has a lot of holes to fill. Giants need impact players and more depth. I don't see Tuck and Nicks coming back.

Victor Cruz talked about a 'disconnect' between Eli and the WRs. WTF were these cats doing during the off-season?

[EmpireWF]

Schwartz should be an improvement.

Losing Joseph sucks.

[strahanfan92]

Yes it does.

[CrimsonGhost56]

Jacoby Jones meeting with the Giants today

[CrimsonGhost56]

giants resigned Jon Beason today and apparently the deal with Schofield is off after issues with his knee (tore his ACL in 2010) during a physical.

[jms493]

So the Giants have Bear Pascoe as the only TE?

[jms493]

Scratch that Pascoe is not on the team anymore??

Daniel Feels
Larry Donnell
Adrien Robinson

Who the fuck are these tight ends???

[CrimsonGhost56]

farewell justin tuck. signed with the raiders today. they gave him a 2 year/11 million deal. tuck gave the giants a chance to match but they declined. one of the best Giants in the past decade, sad to see him go.

[EmpireWF]

His play in Super Bowl 42 was unreal, and he caused the safety to start Super Bowl 46.

[DJ Rhude]

Damn
