Big Blue Huddle

From week 15 v. Detroit, one of my favorite plays of the season:

Great quickness by Snacks. Maybe it was a bad read also by Elliott not to go off the right side Double Team and that huge hole between the RT and TE with one defender to beat.

It all happened very fast Ed, it was like two-second play.

Also, maybe I should have included the wider view, because if he could've gotten to that weakside hole, there was a lot of room.

You can see Hankins beating his man too, though. DTs are really asked to do a lot in the Giants' scheme and those two guys were extraordinary together. I'm glad they got Tomlinson, he has big shoes to fill.

From the week 14 Monday Night victory over Dallas:

Just listening now. You guys did a good job. The sound quality is getting better each episode, and I think Ed's radio voice is really coming into its own on the intro!

Week Ten Monday night game vs. Cincinnati:

Ed, I would be interested in helping out if I can in any of a few ways: archiving good posts, selecting posts for re-posting as articles, or receiving and editing articles for use on the front page. I'd just need some assistance from you guys figuring out what your platform can do.

If someone's post is primarily informational, the longer the better. I enjoy reading facts or analysis by many posters here.

There are also some posters whose writing style I find entertaining, so if I have free time that day I will read those long posts as well.

When posters find excellent articles and want to share them, or spend a long time compiling information on draft picks, or free agents, or a historical story, or X's and O's, I think that BBH should follow a policy of archiving those on the history and chalk talk and draft boards so that we can read them later on our own time. Topics fall off the main board relatively quickly, and more than I few times I've found myself scrolling through a few days later trying to find something I didn't have time to read when it was posted, but was interested in.

The big question of any draft is how many of these kids will be hits v. misses. Fans and the media get caught up thinking about a team's immediate needs, and get attached to perceptions and predictions that are necessarily flawed. If most or all of these players turn out to be NFL-caliber, as was the case with last year's draft, but was not the case from 2011-2013, the draft will be successful, regardless of which positions were prioritized or which holes were filled.

Time to start rooting for the six kids who are now Giants and stop worrying about what might have been. Draft predictions and grades given a day after are a total exercise in futility.

Was able to listen to most of the podcast today, and really enjoyed it. Thanks for taking my question.

Matt,  Outstanding insight and knowledge of the "game inside the game".  We appreciate all your hard work!

Do you take requests for film breakdowns?  If so, I'd love to see the best of Landon Collins.

Thx...Cid

Sure Cid, I'll do my best. I can't promise it will be soon, but it's a long offseason and Collins has a lot of highlights to choose from this past season.

Thanks for all the positive feedback guys, I'm very gratified by your kind words.

Thanks Bob. I enjoy doing it and wanted to share it with you guys.

Week 7 v. the Rams in London:

Week 3 v. Washington:

Let's credit them then.

OK. Is there something else I should be doing other than leaving the NFL logo in the bottom right corner?

UConn: Thanks man. I am amazed by so many things I see from Harrison.

Ed: Snacks' center-of-gravity seems to be so low, and his punch into OLs bodies so powerful at the snap that, if he reads the play properly at the snap, he virtually always gains the advantage one-on-one.

I use the Windows' snipping tool to capture screenshots from the NFL Gamepass "coaches film," then add the illustrations with Paint. Semi low-tech.
