Big Blue Huddle

If we don't finish last we'll be third. That is our realistic ceiling.

It's not even entirely clear to me why he should start at RT in week one over Eleumenor. You have two players who have played RT in this league. One has always been terrible. The other played at a solid level last year. Why would you go with the first guy in that situation?

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on May 02, 2024, 08:29:59 PMIf it were my decision, my leash for neal would be not much more than one game. The guy has had two years, and he's been awful the whole way. Enough. If he's not good at right tackle right away, he should be out. Elumenor did a totally solid job at that position on a bad team with a bad QB for our current new O line coach.

Enough with the kid gloves on Neal. The guy sucks, and he was a dick to the fans. One shot and he's out. He should probably already be out.

Short leash for Neal for sure. I haven't seen any signs of improvement.

Also brady had amazing defenses the first 3 superbowls
Look.at.mahomes now
He only has to.score 21 to 24 ptd cause the defense hold the other team to.less than 20
How many QB makes the WR 
How many QBs  playing now do you think makes the WR special ?
I would say less than 5 if that many

Quote from: Philosophers on Today at 01:11:15 PMJMS can't have an Evan Neal tyoe secind year regression from what was already substandard.

I agree on JMS. Especially considering he is quite old for a second year NFL player.

An Irishman was drinking in a bar in London when he gets a call on his cell
phone. He orders drinks for everybody in the bar as he announces his wife
has just produced a typical Irish baby boy weighing 25 pounds.
Nobody can believe that any new baby can weigh in at 25 pounds, but the man
just shrugs, "That's about average up our way, folks...like I said – my
boy's a typical County Clare baby boy.."
Two weeks later the man returns to the bar.. The bartender says, "Say,
you're the father of that typical Irish baby that weighed 25 pounds at
birth, aren't you? Everybody's been making' bets about how big he'd be in
two weeks ...how much does he weigh now?"
The proud father answers, "Seventeen pounds."
The bartender is puzzled and concerned. "What happened?" "He was 25 pounds
the day he was born."
The father takes a slow swig of his Jameson Irish Whisky, wipes his lips on
his shirt sleeve, leans into the bartender and proudly says,
"Had him circumcised."

I've shared this before. Pretty great read.

Wish the Giants had the problem of too many draft picks they wanted to re-sign that would command huge salaries.  Although, somehow, with the worst record in the NFC for the last decade they are still up against cap wise

Winner Pinnock, Bobby Ok, and Flott- Pinnock because he gets to stay at FS and continue to grow with Nubin at Strong. Flott because drafting Phillips gets him another Shot at boundaOK, Bobby Ok will thrive with all the talent around him on the front 7, and only get better.

Losers- Belton, Bellinger, and Gray- Drafting a safety let's Belton know that he will only get snaps if he beats Pinnock. Since Bellinger has been drafted we traded for a TE, and drafted another. I think he's the first person at risk of losing his job because Theo is a better talent now than Bellinger is now. Gray got stuck in the doghouse and never got out, maybe taking KR duties away finally will let him focus.

Quote from: Jolly Blue Giant on Today at 11:45:29 AMI'm finding a certain amount of joy watching the drama unfold between CeeDee Lamb, Micah Parsons and the Cowboys; although, neither has been declined a 5th year option (so it doesn't really address this thread), but a good story anyway. They both want an extension and more than double what they're being paid, and looking at 30+ million per year. Jerry's in a pickle because there's nothing they can do about Dak's huge contract, who flat-out refuses to have it altered or restructured in any way in order to help out the team

Minnesota has the same problem with Jefferson, who says he won't play this year unless he's paid a salary commensurate with top WRs (30+ million per). Will probably be our problem in a few years with Nabers, LOL

If Nabers has the same production Lamb has had they had better pay him. He won't be the problem, Thibs will be. The Giants committed big money to Burns and if Thibs continues to develop he's gonna want a similar deal in two years. Good luck figuring how to get that done.
