JQK Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Fu*k The Eagles.That is all.I really liked Steve Smith. I don't see how the Giants are going to do anything through the air. Eli isn't the best passer, and we don't have any receivers who can make him look good... Stay Tuned Sports Podcast Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Apparently Smith isn't even going to start the year on PUP - they're expecitng contributions from him in the first quarter of the regular season.

NJTank Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 I know seriosuly, never did I comment about the Giants needing to clear dead money, which they are forced to do. In 2012 the Giants may be able to get a few good players, and compete for the NFC East, but the team as put together now looks like they are going to lose a lot of games. www.sportsecyclopedia.com For the best in sports history go to the Sports E-Cyclopedia at http://www.sportsecyclopedia.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saintsfan Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 The Giants are in a tough division without a great set of players, and at the same time that the cross town rival is looking set for a deep playoff run. Tough year to be a Giant, at least in NY. 2011/12 WFL Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ltjets21 Posted August 11, 2011 Share Posted August 11, 2011 Former Jets WR Jerricho Cotchery has agreed to a one year deal with the Steelers.Makes me sad....I loved him, he was a true jet but i don't blame him for wanting out. They took a player who had been away from the league for two years instead of him as their number 2 reciever. Just realized yesterday I have too many jerseys of ex-jets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rockstar Matt Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I wish my 'Boys never got rid of Nick Folk. I loved that guy and he was extremely consistent. And Buehler, while I like the guy and he is an excellent KOS not only because of his cannon of a leg, but also his love for actually playing football (doing things like tackling for instance, which most kickers seemed scared of), the dude sucks at PK. He'll make about 60-70% of them, but he's way to inconsistent. I'd much rather have Bailey for kicks under 45 yards, and anything more, let Buehler do it.

pmoehrin Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 The new kickoff rule is a joke. Did anyone return a kick Thursday?I don't know if anyone likes this rule.Its done for player safety which I get, but what about making it a little tougher to throw the ball. That's what's adding plays onto the game and making the games longer. An average NFL game now has about 20 extra plays in it then a game back in 1985 did. That is almost entirely due to the passing game. You also get about double the injuries on passing plays as you do running plays.That would make more sense then basically eliminating special teams, but the NFL won't do it because they are a QB centered league and they are not about to do anything that makes these guys less marketable.

BBTV Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 The new kickoff rule is a joke. Did anyone return a kick Thursday?I remember posting here telling people to calm down about this and that it wouldn't really make a tangible difference, but after one night (which is too small of a sample with which to judge) I'm starting to think I was wrong. I was at the Eagles / Ravens game, and kickoffs were essentially just a formality. No chance for returns, as they either went out the back of the end zone or were caught 8 yards deep. Of course part of that is that the Eagles no longer have David Akers dropping kickoffs at the 15 yard line, but still - it looks like the KO return game may not exist this season.

Sodboy13 Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 I think many of us here are old enough to remember when the league moved kickoffs back to the 30 because there were too many touchbacks. That was, what, 20 years ago, before the era of the kickoff specialist and everyone, including kickers and punters, getting bigger, stronger, and better conditioned? I eagerly await either the move back to the 30 next year, or the new rule stating a team automatically starts possession at their own 20 after an opposing score.

Dexter Morgan Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 Smith responded to irate Giants fans on his Facebook page by reiterating that the Giants didn't want him as much as the Eagles did."Instead of cursing at me and wishing my family and my knee harm, i wish you could understand that i truly wanted to stay here but that the giants DIDN'T want me here unfortunately," he said. "Thank you to my true fans for standing by me and offering your support during this time ... i truly appreciate it and will miss you all, even the haters bc i know ure great people deep down and are saying what u are just because youre such passionate fans."Classy.
