Cards Giants Game Thread 2008

[Zeno]

I've seen the same type of posts in the last 3 game threads, but I think this time I'll agree.

I haven't felt that way the past few weeks. This week it just seems like they are running ankle deep in mud...slow slow slow

I don't understand how Moose Johnston can see that the Giants are specifically taking away the deep-in routes all game long and Haley keeps calling that play. Why is Haley on the field anyway? Shouldn't the OC be in the booth? I guess you don't have to see much to call a delayed draw.

How many times do we have to hear about Plaxico Buress and Jacobs being out? Honestly, even with them playing I think the results wouldn't be much different.

I agree. Hood being hobbled hurts us a lot more than Jacobs or Burress being out hurts the Giants.

Yeah, I just said that to my dad....what difference would it have made? 37 points instead of 34?

You learn more losing than winning. Just another step in the process to greatness. Today we learned Matt Ware needs to go, Rod Hood makes a huge difference when playing good teams, special teams coverage needs a revamp, and our o-line can't handle a good d-line. Next stop: Eagles, where Donovan McNabb was recently benched and Bryan Westbrook is looking terrible.

Hope the Cards can punch one in to make the final respectable.

the most frustrating thing about this game is that the Cardinals don't control their own destiny. The NEED someone else to beat the Giants in the playoffs. I don't see how they have any chance at all in NY in the cold/snow.

Giants are essentially treading water today and Eli puts up his best game of the year. It's okay to lose a game but this pretty much squelches any hope of actually making it very far in the playoffs.

I remember last time we were 7-4, we finished 7-9

We didn't still have the st.louis rams at home that year.

Yeah I know but it still scares me.

I don't think you understand how much Jacobs means to this team. Jacobs Helped this team RUsh for 200+ yards vs the best defence in the NFL. He spends the first 3 quaters destroying a teams defence while guys like Ward and Bradshaw run circles around the pieces. Today we've only rushed for 70 yards.

Gotta go for 2!!!!!

Neither Lynch nor Barber gained over 60 yards against Arizona. Jacobs would have made no difference in this game. Why run for 2.9 yards a carry when you can throw for 15?

The ball was in his effing hands!!!

 

[Zeno]

Ralph Brown should apologize to the entire staidum for that

Hope you don't meet him in the playoffs

STs has killedus!!!!

 

[FrustratedFan04]

Special Team play has just cut our hearts out here today. But why, oh why would you go for an on-side kick with 4 min and 2 TO's plus the 2 min war???????

I teach the 10 year olds...Don't wait for the ball. Go get it. I guess you have to teach the pros the same thing.

We see Steven Jackson twice a year. We'd have had a much better chance of winning today if the giants had tried to pound it with Jacobs. Fortunately for Giants fans TC isn't that hard headed and he let Manning destroy our awful secondary.

 

[Osbern61]

D gives up another run on 3rd and long, but just short.

You hope we don't?

I don't think opposing fans understand that...we suck versus the pass, we almost made Shaun frigging Hill a hero
