Giants Year Report
===================================================
Coach: Bill Parcells
Yrs: 8
Season Record: 9-7
Overall Record: 73-53 (.579)
Status: Bill Parcells has now coached his 8th season with the New York Giants. IN those years he has managed to lead the Giants to glory in the 1986 season as they won the Super Bowl. However things are starting to shake up in New York. The Giants finished this year with a disappointing 9-7 record, a 3 win drop form the previous year. Unfortunately for the Giants the Eagles 13-3 and even the Redskins 9-7, were ranked over them this season. Bill Parcells final year just finished on his contract. It�ll be interesting to see if he continues to coach the Giants or not. He has the luxury of a leading the team to a Super Bowl to dangle before the front office faces, but that was 4 years ago.

Giants Individual Player Statistics
-----------------------------------------------------------------------


Giants Team MVP
--------------------------------------------------------
LB � Lawrence Taylor
Giants Player Standouts
---------------------------------------------------------------
1. - HB � Ottis Anderson � 348 Att � 4.0 Avg � 1,406 Yds � 8 TD � 4 Fum -26 Rec � 251 Yds � 2 TD
Info: Ottis Anderson had his best season yardage wise since his rookie year in 1979 with the St. Louis Rams. The 33 year old runningback showed the youngsters how to get it done in 1990 with a 1,406 yard, 8 touchdown season. Anderson was a large reason for the Giants second-half season resurgence that gave them a potential, but failed, shot at the playoffs. In this one season Ottis Anderson ran for more yards than he had his whole Giant career from 1986-1989 (1,318). It appears this bruising runningback may have found his second wind.
2. - ROLB � Lawrence Taylor � 144 Tak � 12 Loss � 9 Sack � 5 FF � 2 FR � 20 Deflect � 1 Int[/ b]
Info: When you lead your team in tackles, sacks, forced fumbles, and deflections, then you know you�re good. There�s no doubting that Lawrence Taylor is one of the all-time best at his position with his furious playing. However at 31 years old many people are expecting him to start dropping off in terms of playing ability. But in 1990 LT proved all the critics wrong with an outstanding 144 tackles that led the league. Taylor vastly improved his pass protection ability in 1990 when he deflected 20 passes, a part of his game that was lacking previously.
3. - C � Bart Oates � 62 Pancakes � 6 Sacks Allowed
Info: The 27 year old center, Bart Oates, is just coming into his prime with the 1990 season completed. Oates had a solid 62 pancakes with only 6 sacks allowed all year. Oates has now established himself as one of the league�s top centers. There is a reason Bart Oates was the offensive lineman that received the most votes in the Pro Bowl, that�s because he�s just that good.
4. � WR � Mark Ingram � 51 Rec � 14.0 Avg � 717 Yds � 6 TD � 9 Drop
Info: The New York Giants seem to lack a true star wide receiver, but that has not forced the team to not work with what they have. Young 25 year old Mark Ingram had his first �breakout� year with the New York Giants this season. Catching more passes then his first 3 seasons combined (32 total) and leading the Giants in Yards received, and touchdowns caught! Ingram could finally be getting ready to establish himself and give New York the receiving threat they require. Next season will be a big year for him to prove that.
Giants Player Letdowns
-------------------------------------------------------------
1. - HB � Rodney Hampton � 133 Att � 2.8 Avg � 384 Yds � 4 TD � 1 Fum
Info: The New York Giants drafted Rodney Hampton to be the eventual replacement for aging Ottis Anderson. However with Andersons� explosive season, and Hampton�s fizzle, things may change. Hampton had 133 attempts to get it right, but with a 2.8 average the Giants were left wanting more. Hampton did managed to collect 4 touchdowns from short distance, but his performance was not what New York fans were hoping out of the kid in 1990.
2. - CB � Mark Collins � 43 Tak � 1 Loss � 1 FF � 1 FR � 14 Deflect
Info: All other numbers for Mark Collins were decidedly satisfying in the 1990 season except a large glaring 0 in the interception column. The New York Giants suffered in the interception department in 1990 and it costed them some key games. However Mark Collins lack of contribution was the biggest let down surprise of the year for the defense.
3. - DT � Erik Howard � 36 Tak � 3 Loss � 2 Sack � 2 FF � 1 FR � 3 Deflect
Info: Definitely a bad season for defensive tackle Erik Howard. Howard was rated the best of all the Giants defensive tackles and he churned out a horrendous 2 sack year. Howard will need to step it up if the Giants are going to have faith in him.
Giants Review
-----------------------------------------------------
Review: The New York Giants finished the year just short of a potential wild card spot. With a 1-4 start in the first 5 weeks things weren�t looking good at all. However after a bye week the Giants came storming back and finished the year 8-3, but it still wasn�t enough. 4 of the Giants 7 losses were 3 points or less, this should indicate that the Giants still have the potential to be the top tier team that they have been in previous recent seasons. However an aging and accuracy decreasing Phil Simms isn�t helping matters in the passing front. Whether or not backup Jeff Hostetler can take over is a large question looming over the Giants offense. Bill Parcells has a good chance of coming back to New York, although many teams are salivating at the thought of aquiring him in the off-season. With a couple free agent pickups at some lacking positions, the Giants could easily skyrocket back up to contention, the only question is, will they help themselves?
