I'd take Josh Allen as the Giants QB in a NY second.

Word is McCarthy is staying.

"Two of Wellman's four seasons with Giants were two of best in terms of injury prevention that the franchise has had in more than a decade: 7th in 2016 and 8th in 2018 in terms of adjusted games lost by Football Outsiders. Clearly, Giants hope to build program off those years."

Hopefully this will help with the Giants injury issues.

Cry, Eagles cry!

 

Dallass getting whooped!

I tried to load Peacock on my Samsung TV. Can't get it, pre-2017 Samsung SmartTVs don't support it. I could load Peacock on my firestick which I use on my other TV. But I'm not happy about this move by the NFL, so to heck with it. I just won't watch the game.

As a Giants fan, I was never "freaked out" that Kafka might leave
for a HC job elsewhere. Why would I? The offense was not spectacular or even exciting in 2022 or 2023. Plodding would describe the Giants 2022 offense to me. Well, maybe not, plodding would describe a team with a running game. With our OL in 2022 and 2023, the running game was stifled. I had 1 glass of wine too many. At least we knocked the snot out of the Philly. Go Giants.

Sounds like drama in Giants land. I don't want to hear of employee hissy fits. The Giants don't need any more turmoil with a 6-11 2023 suck record. I hope this Wink issue gets rectified soon. Wink moves on and we start interviewing DCs ASAP.

Good! Fox does a terrible game production. Always filming the sidelines or some other garbage before the ball is snapped. Like who cares about the sidelines? I want to see where the players line up.

Dexter Lawrence was named to the Pro Bowl on Wednesday, the only Giants representative.

"It's the second straight selection for the defensive lineman, who becomes the first Giant to get selected to consecutive Pro Bowls since Landon Collins made it three times in a row from 2016-18.

He has tied a career-high with seven tackles for loss heading into Sunday's finale against Philadelphia.

Saquon Barkley was named a second alternate and Kayvon Thibodeaux a third alternate."

Third string QB. OL terrible. How?

I'm starting to wonder why Schoen/Daboll didn't just tag DJ and roll the dice with Saquon while hoping that another team wouldn't then outbid them. But so much for wisdom after the fact. Bah!

Cheers!

I think the reason they didn't tag him is because I believe there would of been a ~32mil hit on the cap. They could have just let him test the market, but that was too big of a risk. They were between a rock and a hard spot. I really thought DJ was worth around 20-25mil.

Daniel Jones was my biggest disappointment. Although, I should not have been surprised. I didn't want the Giants to pay him 40Mil per season. I didn't think showed he was good enough in the passing game LY. He won mostly with his legs.

The 1st game against the Cowplops this season, I knew, just watching his face and body language that he was in panic mode from the beginning (I thought: "who could blame him with that OL"). But as the game went on, I realized he just doesn't have it. I was very disappointed with his play and command of the offense.

For me, it's the Cowplops number 1  . The Egirls Number 2.
