Larry Donnell!!!! So much for the Giants having no TEs!! Also I'll be realistic...it's juat Washington but this is a great start. And I'm more mad we kept Gilbride all these years lol Eli looks like 2011 again! Except with the nerve wracking lolol



So: 20 of 24 with 3 TDs (and no picks) by halftime. About that who "Eli wont pick up this new offense" bullsh*tBig smile

Seeing how Eli and the G-Men are playing tonight makes me happy that we already played and won against them in week 1.  They look impressive.

EDIT:  Also, I'm a believer in Kirk Cousins (I think he's better than RGIII as a pure QB), but he's playing like complete garbage right now.  The desperation in his play is stinky.

Yeah Cousins is far superior to RG3. Sure I just sounded like a fanboy but I sincerely was not impressed with Griffin his rookie year. I mean he ran the offense extremely well, which is all one can ask for, but it was unimpressive and when he needed to be a pocket and read passer, he was quite dreadful. Unless they can actually pass like R Wilson these running QBs don't pan out. 

The offense is really clicking, this is awesome. I hope the yappers shut their mouths soon, assuming this continues. Like a 10 year vet was really not going to pick up a simpler offensive systemLOL

Yeah, he really collapsed there in the 3rd. Those last two INTs especially were utter trash throws.

But no complaints for me. The real test for the giants will be when they play a real team, which I hope doesn't happen for awhile. That said, this offsense is looking quite fine.

And not to pull this card, but a few of his INTs were those infamous tip balls, or good defensive plays. He's really been on the money last 3 games. 
I will be raving all year, but this new OC is a breath of fresh air. 

I'll still put it on poor play from Cousins and the Skins BUT the secondary has been great so far, esp Prince who's been great and Rolle that actually went sh*t to pretty damn good! There's been good pressure so far, and the pocket is holding up VERY well protecting Eli. Damn it, I feel optimistic Shocked

I tried telling people not to sleep on the Giants. I would like to know how they manage to turn every trash pile TE that walks into their offense into a solid receiving threat.

That's how I felt after week 1 with my Lions.  Now, I'm not sure what to think about the offense and it's shakiness. LOL

Y'all don't count. You lion fans are just depressedLOL Team could be 14-0 and "Well there's definitely 2 losses coming up now!"
I will admit, I am less sold on Detroit. Thought for sure this would be a big year for them, esp for Stafford...but IDK with more weapons and experience guy doesn't seem to have "it" yet. 


I mean, it was the Fitz led Texans and the Skins...I will be realistic here about my G Men, but fact is the offense is clicking, the O line has pulled a 180 from last year, and the defense has at least been opportunistic. It seems like Amukamara may be finally developing into a cover corner. With DRC, Rolle and Steve Brown, yeah I feel hopefulShocked

I think KC/NE could be an interesting game. Pats are not up to their usual and KC has a great pass rush. I see a defensive slugfest perhaps!

We ARE depressed.  History doesn't bode well for us, but one thing I can say for this year and going forward is that Caldwell is a guy who will hold players accountable and won't put up with any crap (a real coach), so things could get better.  The offense just needs to be more efficient.

Well history aint 2014 :P

I will say, things look outright painful with Calvin in there BUT he made it happen, and that Jets pass rush is fierce. Stafford was under some major duress. Good sign there at least. 

OMG Steelers lose to Tampa Bay!! And in what fashion! 50 seconds left for TB and they give up that huge catch and run...and to the guy who was booted from the sh*tty 2013 GiantsLOL  What a game. 

Hoping SF can beat up on Philly, but I think it'll be pretty tight.

Hopefully in week 4 this is not Tampa Bay's coming out party against us.
 
Was some excellent games in week 3.

Crap, if figures.....

Our D sucks!

Hope now to see Philly pound on the 49ers.... As I type, the punt was blocked and Eagle touchdown!

God SF is painful to watch. They must think penalties get them points...a couple have been BS but that's in every game, they are just so undisciplined. 
Philly seems to have some major issues defensively, and struggle to protect Foles. Makes me a little more hopeful against them! 

I also still CAN NOT believe N'arlins gave up Sproles for almost nothing. Guy is such a stud. 

Edit: Wooooo SF! What a week. Let's hope N'arlins spanks Dallas.

Big plus I see...these last two games for you guys really felt like ones you'd manage to lose last year. But you won them both. So I definitely think there is potential there for the future.

But best not to jinx it.

Yes, let's not. LOL

But seriously, I'm really happy with today's win.  Solid defense and offense and most importantly, ZERO turnovers.

Yeah N'arlins....yikes. Things are not looking good. 
Also I will not get tooooo nervous yet. BUT Dallas has a GREAT o line, Murray is on fire...



Speaking of not good! 
How the mighty have fallen...NE is looking in trouble right now. 4 games in and offense is painful, they don't seem to have anything going yet ShockedO line finally seems to be shaky... 

Oh and watching KC is ridiculous! So many behind the line passes that magically turn into first downsLOL

Yes they be...my Saints have had issues since game 1....The offense is asleep, the D is in need of a makeover...small DB's are thing of the past.
Why the O game plan has not been including Graham till late in the games is beyond me...ohh and it is time to see about cashing in on Ingram for some D players. The Ingram project is done....

Although if they can get back on track they still can win the NFC South, 9 or 10 wins might get it.

Saints sux right now...
