Giants report: Notes, quotes
 

The Sports Xchange
 
 
Notes, quotes · Inside slant · Strategy and personnel
 

--The Giants, without a first round draft pick, have been quietly inquiring as to the availability of one via trade. The best-sounding rumor so far is for them to package their second round pick (43rd) and cornerback Will Allen (a former first round pick) to St. Louis for the Rams' first (19th overall). But what they'd do with it remains unclear.

 

--The team's obvious need for a LT may not be satisfied in free agency. On the other hand, with Kareem McKenzie signing, they can put him at his accustomed position of RT and move David Diehl back to RG, where he started as a rookie. Diehl was moved to RT last year and wasn't as good; in fact, a few personnel scouts suggested that the 6-5, 320-pound Diehl has a chance to be a Pro Bowl guard.

--The Giants are trying to re-sign RB Mike Cloud but have no interest in doing the same to RB Ron Dayne, their first round pick in 2000. A rumor last week had Dayne signing with Houston, but the Texans released a statement saying they had "no interest in that player."

QUOTE TO NOTE
"I have been here for eight years and a lot of my life is in that locker room. But this is a business above all. I understand the situation and I have no regrets or resentment. It was a fun ride." -- WR Ike Hilliard, released by the Giants because of salary restrictions.

Last thing I'd like to get off my chest for today...Was that moron really getting in the ear of the offense?  Please tell me I was dreaming when I saw that...

The offense has to play catch up football every damn week thanks to an pee-wee football defense we have...

Osi yelling at someone?  The guy has what 5 sacks?  Worse then the actual number of sacks is that

Dear Giants Fans:     It's time!   With 5 games remaining against wild card  teams and division leaders,  it's time for the players to stop talking macho, and just play the game like a pack of wounded animals.  It's time for the O and D coordinators to let it all hang out.  If they don't, it ...(more)

Get strong win a Superbowl & Fall apart.

There is no real excuse for it. However, The Giants lost Spag, the defense suffers, No Suprise there.

Plax being Plax end up in Jail, anyone really suprised there?

We send a great player headcase to New orleans, look whats going on there!

The most alarming thing about the Giants this year is that its not one thing, they are bad in a lot of spots (Hutched)

I read that on another post and I think that is really the answer.  Anyway, here is my take:

I like Eli Manni

we all love the good old soldier Pierce, but we all know he was never that fast, but made up with smarts, but now his even more diminished speed (age) has made it too much to make up with knowledge no longer.

not saying Chase is Flash (fitting name since he's always BEHIND the runner, chasing...), but Blackburnn cannot be slower than Pierce.  or perhaps Clark can move to MLB where

over the years, the Giants have been successful due to talent and great coordinators (and some OC, but not as much).  it seems like we've become the Kansas City Royals of producing coordinator talent for a couple of years and letting them go without even looking to see if they'll make a better head coach then the current

I really think Derrick Ward is the obvious missing cog for the Giants. I can't believe I haven't heard anyone mention this when watching all of the morons(experts) on tv. Also, the coaching staff really needs to stop worrying that

Dear Giant Fans:      While it is still mathematically possible for the G-men to sneak into the play-offs, we must control our pessimistic dooms-day feelings.  If the Giants can find a way to beat the " Boys " this week, they will be only 1 game behind in the loss column, however, will win the tie breaker if Da ...(more)

What is worse, getting assaulted by an overrated team or being an overrated team?
Didn't we all know at least a bit going into this game that it was by no means going to be a gimmie, even with the way the Broncos had been playing and the heavy favoring of the Giants because of t

Would be losing the next 2 to go 6-7, then beating the lowly Redskins and Panthers and a Viking team that's liable to be resting the whole team, and finishing 9-7. Imagine the idiocy if it plays out like that, all we will hear is how the ...(more)

(POLL) Would like to gauge what fans think the biggest dissapointment has been so far in the season.

Eli was expected to have a huge year after the huge contract but thus far as been an average to good quarterbak as far as $100 million status goes anyway.

Jacobs was expected to be a top 5 back but has looked hesitant at times and regressed from last year.

The defens
