Big Blue Huddle

Quote from: Painter on May 16, 2024, 11:08:56 AMGiven what we saw of his play last season, which was a breath of fresh air in a dyspnea of a Defense, I can't but think of him as a good fit. I quite clearly recall that even as rookie, he was one of the few Giants Defenders who seemed engaged and effective in those otherwise early debacles against the Cows and Niners.

Moreover, as he has previously been rated as an above average Pass Defender from the LB position, there is all the more reason to feel positive about his "fit" in Bowen's scheme. Quite frankly, as I saw it, the only thing that kept McFadden from greater appreciation was the excellent performance of Okereke in Wink's otherwise shitty Defense as it was even well before the Williams trade.

Cheers!

I thought his forte was Run and Dog, not coverage. I'll defer to you instead of my memory snapshots.

The Browns, Cowboys, and Eagles were well above that, winning 11, 12, and 11 games (respectively). Bengals were 9-8 with Joe Burrow only starting 10 games. Seahawks are usually a tough team and its an away game. I don't know what you define as killer, but the Giants could easily go 0-5 during that stretch.

There is no question that the stretch you described is the hardest part of the Giants' season.  I think Dallas took a step back.  The Bengals might be, though, but I think that is TBD, as are the Browns and Seahawks (in my view).   So there is a potential that could be a killer stretch, but I don't think it's a sure thing.  Heck, I am not even sure I could say it's the likely outcome.

The U.S. is the largest market for Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, based on viewer numbers forecast for 2024. The country is estimated to have over 173 million Netflix and around 164 million Prime viewers.

Quote from: TDToomer on May 16, 2024, 11:15:14 AMWhat year was this? I saw #55 with the pitch throw to Jennings and I assumed it was Reasons but then I saw Rutledge on the Rams sidelines so it must have been 79-82 and #55 was Brian Kelley.
