Big Blue Huddle

The lack of respect with regards to other fans' viewpoints and perspectives is baffling to me.

CAGiantFan is now COGiantFan and T200 is April 14th 

Oh wow... so sad to hear that. Please pass on my condolences to Burt's family. Hope the family is doing well in his absence.

Hi Patti,

Sullivan has called the last six games. What's your assessment of his play calling and how do you compare him to McAdoo?

1st choice: Sean Payton
Sean's been around the block and is a no-nonsense coach. He can get the most out of this offense and is familiar with NY Giants football. If he can land a solid defensive coordinator, we should be good.

2nd choice: Josh McDaniels
He's had his chance in Denver and it didn't fare very well. I believe he's learned a lot from Little Bill from their years together and there doesn't seem to be any animosity as he's on his second stint under BB in NE. Although he has no ties to the Giants, Bill does. And bringing a little bit of the Patriots way to NY isn't a bad thing from my perspective. I would think he's learned from his Denver days and would presumably do things differently if he had another chance at HC.

I didn't pick one of the choices because it doesn't line up with my thought, which is this: for me, TC's wagon is hitched to Eli. I don't want Eli to have to go through a head coaching and philosophy change, another offensive coordinator and system during his last few good years. I figure Eli's got a solid 4-5 prime years left in this system. He's getting the ball out quicker and taking less hits, prolonging his health. McAdoo's system is good for Eli even though many fans here don't like the play calling.

I think TC can still be effective with more talent defensively. The offense isn't far off. Offensive line health has been the biggest factor. Defense is sorely lacking. It'll probably take 2-3 years to get it where it needs to be. I still feel defense wins championships but with this offense, we can run up the score as well. TC's made some questionable calls that, if they had worked out, would not be discussed past that particular game. I don't think he should be let go or forced to retire but I also understand it's a results-oriented business. Superbowl victories do indeed have a shelf life. 2011-2012 is getting smaller and smaller in the rear view mirror.

The last two games Jennings got the majority of carries and the running game improved. What was the reason or catalyst in the change?

Rhythm

I think he deserves more time and a healthier group than he's had this year. If the offensive line can stay healthy for 19 games next year, the results will be undeniable. The dial-a-running-back needs to be dialed back. Pick one primary, have a change-up (Vereen) and keep one for backup. Cruz comes back to take the slot and relieves some pressure on OBJ.

Add another doozy that goes against us.

I'd vote for Russell Wilson as ROTY. But he won't get it because Seattle is small market and Luck and Bob are bigger names.

I know this case seems complicated at first look but my view, based on my read of the Stand Your Ground Law should not prevent Zimmerman from being found guilty.

1) Zimmerman pursued this kid even though a Police Dispatcher told him to back off.

2) Zimmerman was also told by the same dispatcher the Police would be there in 2 minutes or so.

3) Zimmerman caused the confrontation to occur.  As the lead investigating Detective said "this was completely avoidable".

4) Zimmerman is in no way connected with Law Enforcement.

5) Neighborhood Watch people were mandated not to carry weapons.


Also, I know many people want to make this a Racial situation, but I think it is a non issue based on the facts.  Legally Zimmeman did not have the legal right to pursue this kid.

And just what, exactly, was Trayvon Martin doing that looked suspicious to Zimmerman? Was he checking for unlocked cars? Was he peeping in house windows? Was he walking down the middle of the street?

Had Zimmerman stayed in the car like he was advised to do, we'd never know his name.

Count me in for "as-is" also.

As mentioned earlier, the NFTs get moved off the first page by attrition due to low interest as it is. This forum continues to be Giants-related-information driven. We all come here for our Giants fix. It's ok to have some NFT/NGT info to share with the community.

Hopefully this will end all of the "Plaxico Back to Giants" talk.

Jernigan could bring Wildcat to Giants
BY HANK GOLA
At 5-8, 181, third round pick Jerrel Jernigan is going to have to make it on speed and quickness, which he has in abundance. A high school quarterback, Jernigancan thrown the option pass, run it and catch it. He'll also be tried as a return man.
If he works out, you could see the Wildcat in the game plan.

I guess I'm one of those guys that let the professionals do their job, especially when I know I can't do any better. Reese was brought on by EA because he (Reese) is a very good scout. Giants management saw fit to make Reese the GM. I'm not here to second guess anyone. But Reese is the GM and until he royally screws up a draft (which he hasn't to this point) then I'm still in his corner.
