What will 2010 bring?

After two disappointing seasons the NY Giants go into a season with a new defensive coordinator and some new players. The coordinator is proven so hopefully the defense will resume their dominance which they had in the Super Bowl year.

What a Team!




This Giant team will get better. A hall of fame quarterback. (You heard it here first). The offensive line is peerless. The backs are very good. The receivers are top notch. And what a defense!! And depth all around. Tuck is all pro and the rest of the defensive line are pro bowlers. The offensive line makes huge holes that a truck can pass through. What a team.

See you Monday night in Cleveland.

Who Won the Game


All hail the perfect team!

All hail the perfect quarterback!

All hail the greatest achievement ever in team sports!

All hail New England's admittance to the pantheon of competitive immortality!

But everyone should wipe away the drool and realize there's another team playing in the Super Bowl -- a team that, in some respects, has attained a level of success that's comparable to what the Patriots have done.

The New York Giants have won 10 straight road games, including three in the playoffs. More than half of the Giants' victories came on the road.

That's as mindboggling as 18-0.

Giants sign Jaquar safety Knight for three years

Knight looks good but I was surprised to see Wilson go. He sure got a lot of money from Oakland. Wow! Sorry to see Mitchell go. Reese brought in his first reinforcement Monday when he signed former Jaguars safety Sammy Knight, an 11-year veteran to replace Gibril Wilson, who signed with the Raiders when free agency opened. Knight signed a three-year deal worth $5.15 million and got a signing bonus of $1.25 million.

That's quite a bargain compared to the six-year, $39 million contract (with $16 million) that Wilson got from the Oakland Raiders on Friday night.

Giants great coach gets just reward.


Coughlin was always a good coach. The impatient media was not able to think beyond the moment and they affected fan opinion. He was good with the Jaguars and has been good with the Giants. He certainly was a welcome relief from the previous years when snapping the ball became and event and a ten yard field goal attempt made one cringe.

His money is well deserved and the Giants should be contenders for a long time to come. Especially with this young talented team and Eli is only going to get better.

Let's Get this Straight about Eli!


Much is made out of how Eli did not have that great a year until the Patriot game and the ensuing playoffs. What many do not realize is that the receivers started catching the ball as of the Patriot game and thereafter. The Giants led the league in drops. What is a quarterback to do. The second factor is that Plaxico had never really practiced with the whole team and this was definitely a deficiency. Then Steve Smith got healthy. So now Eli has Plaxico, Smith, Toomer and Boss with Tyree in reserve. And they are starting to hold on to the ball. Of course, you can't say enough for the contribution of the emerging Bradshaw along with the solid Jacobs. So Eli and the defense was always there. The rest of the offense had to catch up.

The Giants sign both kicker and punter.



The Giants signed Feagles to a two year contract and are about to sign Tynes to a seven year deal. http://www.nydailynews.com/sports/football/giants/2008/02/12/2008-02-12_giants_to_give_lawrence_tynes_fiveyear_7.html
Feagles is the best directional kicker and Tynes has shown his clutch ability. After all no one has ever kicked a field goal that far in such cold weather in Green Bay.
