halfback20 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Well, he had it comming more than anyone I can think of. :lol: In all seriousness, It was a great run by the Giants, it's good to see a fan a passionate as HB is about his team. I was kind of numb today. I usually get furious when the Giants play this bad...but today I just kind of sat there. I kind of knew two super bowls in a row was too good to be true. Maybe next year.

Run To State Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Doesn't really work...he has proven that he can win big games. And while some of the blame for this game is on him...most of it falls on the offensive coordinator IMO. Terrible day for Kevin Killdrive. It is a better effort though. Kevin Killdrive didn't throw those terrible passes as the 4th qtr was winding down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than I can say for my Cowboys this year. :creepy: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
born2reign Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 This loss hurts. I really thought the Giants were the best team in the league even without Plax. I know that the Plax thing will come up, but I honestly don't think that was as big today as was the Giants play calling and the Eagles second half offensive adjustments that allowed them to move the ball. Eli took a step backward today. He will have to look in the mirror in the off-season and step his performance up next year to lead his team to and perform better in the playoffs. All this being said, congrats to the Eagles and good luck next week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than I can say for my Cowboys this year. :creepy: Adding insult to injury is the fact that teams can now hire Steve Spagnuolo without having to wait until after the super bowl. He's all but gone IMO. I hope Reese works his magic and finds a great DC to replace him. I'd also like to see Kevin Gilbride take a job elsewhere, but my luck isn't that good.

I'm not so sure Burress will be back next year though. If he manages to escape prison time, maybe...if he doesn't, the Giants need to find a WR in the draft or free agency to take his place.

If he manages to escape prison time, maybe...if he doesn't, the Giants need to find a WR in the draft or free agency to take his place. Osi will help, for sure. Plax has played his last game for the G-Men, IMO. The Giants priority in the draft should be wide receiver, IMO. I hope they get a guy that is flexible enough to return kicks as well. A good punt returner and kick returner has been a need all season, IMO. I'm thinking that Jeremy Macklin or Percy Harvin (if either is available when the Giants pick) would be nice.

halfback20 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Dominik Hixon can return kicks well, but they took him off of kickoff and punt returns when he had to be a starter. I think they should have had him doing both kickoff and punt returns today, as he is much faster than Bradshaw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wireman Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 It was a fun regular season as a Giants fan. However, they were not the best team come playoff time. Very weird playoffs this year. Congrats Eagles fans and good luck. Sorry HB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJAlltheWay24 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Home field advantage, doesn't seem to mean a lot this season. That is certainly true...I thought it would be for this game and I am glad that I am right. It still scares me that the Eagles can't score consistantly when their are right on the goaline.

NkuRoyal31 Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 Not really suprised by this, espically after all the other wins etc. I thought the Eagles could be the team to go into the Giants home field and knock them off. Who will be the home town between Zona and the Eagles? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
