Big Blue Huddle

I am planning on making the trip at some point.  Probably be three people in my group and we would be interested in a get together.

I have said it before, his biggest problem is in between his ears. 

He is a turnover machine and the "coach killer" label given by Jim Mora has once again been proven.  2010 was an anomaly but for some reason three years later media still talks about him "returning to 2010 form". 

If I asked if you want a short, fast QB with a strong inaccurate arm who takes a lot of sacks and turns the ball over a lot what would your answer be?

The height thing is like arm length with the OTs.  Ideally you like to see a certain number and being in that range gives a QB the best chance of success.  Brees and Wilson are exceptions and prove that it can be done but they are both extraordinary athletes.

 

Grizz you could also make the case that he was definitely getting picked by the end of the 1st round. 

I have not seen tape of the of the Bowl game.  Going to look for it but I wonder how much extra attention Oklahoma gave him or if he was blocked just by Lane Johnson.

"Hankins possesses the length, strength and remarkably light feet to be a star but struggled with conditioning at Ohio State. "

I know he was overweight at one point but every coach I have seen quoted disagrees with this idea that he had conditioning issues.  Why does every reporter still seem to write that this is an issue when he played every single snap ?  With everyone healthy what is the highest percent of snaps any Giants DT will play?

Listening to NFL radio tonight when a Packers fan called in to Tim Ryan and Pat Kirwan asking what was missing from the Packers pass rush of a couple of years ago. 

Kirwan quickly responded with "Cullen Jenkins".  I don't have exact quotes or text of the conversation but he went on to discuss Jenkin's importance to the Packers pass rush of their super bowl year.  He mentioned that Jenkins ate up double teams by moving down the line and opened things up for Mathews and others. 

I hope he can help us in the same capacity, although from what he described scheme had a lot to do with the problems he caused for OLs.

Correction- Pat was never GM with the Jets. But I agree that he meant what UConn said.

I stand corrected, for some reason I thought he was a GM but I looked it up and he was not.

Whoever Kirwan is, what does he mean by, "This team isn't going anywhere...?"

Kirwan is a former GM.  I think he means they will be competitive as long as the philosophy and some front office people remain.  He means they will not disappear from being a perennial title contender, at least that is how I take it.  I listen to him regularly and he has a lot of respect for the way the Giants manage their team.
