abdomlahor Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 Have either of you guys been to a game? I'm currently looking into going on holiday to NY next year and will definitely be taking in a game when I'm over there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtsimonw Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 (edited) Yeah I only to Wembley so far unfortunately. kkr went to the Eagles collapse game, so he's no longer allowed to go. Edited November 13, 2013 by kurtsimonw 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted November 13, 2013 Share Posted November 13, 2013 I remember watching the Wembley game on TV. Pretty sure that was the first Giants game I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkr Posted November 14, 2013 Author Share Posted November 14, 2013 I went to the Wembley game which was one of the wins on the way to the Super Bowl and to the Eagles collapse game which became the inspiration for the "finish" theme the following season when we won it all, so i guess you could say that i was instrumental in this team winning two championships! I will happily accept all donations to get me back over there this season! Was the first year of the new stadium when i went, kind of gutted i didnt get to go to the old stadium and despite the loss to the Eagles i got to see the game of the season also, so it was an amazing experience. Got the bus over to the game from port authority for like $10-15 i think as we were staying in Manhattan. Any questions, let me know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I imagine just being over there and seeing a game is enough to make it worthwhile regardless of the result. Thanks, will do! 4 wins in a row. Who would've thought it?

kkr Posted November 20, 2013 Author Share Posted November 20, 2013 Against some shoddy QB's tbf, so lets see if we can keep it up against Romo. The Dallas D is beat up though so hopefully this is the game the offense truly turns the corner and builds some momentum! JPP NFC DPOTW! Becomes only the third Giant player to win it at least 3 times. The others were Strahan and LT. Not bad company! Hopefully this guy is getting healthier too, both he and Tuck are slowly improving lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted November 20, 2013 Share Posted November 20, 2013 I think it's very winnable. Their D looks terrible, it's just whether we can deal with their passing game. Like a lot of Giants/Cowboys games are, I expect a shootout. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtsimonw Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 We're a bad team who overperformed today. Dallas aren't a good team, but we're not in their league. Our record flatters us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kurtsimonw Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 Is that your "I'm done for the season, to make us go on a run" post? Mostly when I say that, its out of frustration that we lose a game when we play badly or something. But this, we played well and still lost against a bad team, we're just not a playoff team. A combination of bad luck, poor decision making, awful playcalling and injuries and simply bad play. I'd usually be more pissed off but in previous years we were good enough and messed it up, this year that's not the case. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkr Posted November 25, 2013 Author Share Posted November 25, 2013 Dallas are a terrible terrible team which tells us everything we need to know about Kevin Gilbride and the NYFG offense this year. 17 points we held them too and we were busting off 10+ yard runs like they were going out of fashion, so why the **** are we throwing it in the redzone every **** time!? Hakeem Nicks is a pussy, IR him now and let him rot for the season. He has clearly checked out and will be **** off to Carolina in the off season. Good riddance. Go with Randle, Cruz and Murphy to see which of those will stick around next year. Need a legit TE and an overhaul of the offensive line. D has been good but Fewell seems to come up short in the big moments with questionable calls so id get rid. Id still keep Coughlin, its a miracle we still had an important game today after the 0-6 start and that is a credit to TC and the team sticking with him, but 0-6 is just too big a hole especially with the passing game completely figured out and none existent. Fine T2 and JPP their game check also seeing as they guaranteed victories and failed to deliver on their promise. In fact make that a base rule going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abdomlahor Posted November 25, 2013 Share Posted November 25, 2013 (edited) We were horrible in the first half. Improved in the second but was still an anti-climax. Fewell let himself down in the final drive, pretty sure we rushed no fewer than three in each play. It's testament to our great defensive performances of late that I was expecting a stop though. Is it any wonder our redzone plays have been crap? Not sure if it was down to Gilbride or Eli seeing something and adjusting, but a shotgun draw on 3rd and goal? (Think it was goal, may have been outside the 10). Either way it was shocking. And not sure what Jacobs was doing on that 30 yard run. He had one man in front of him and he took it out of bounds. Take him on and punch it in. The coverage on Witten's second TD was bad too. Think it was Rolle who should have made a play. I'll'll let him off though as he's been our MVP by an absolute mile this season. The better team won, but it could easily have been different. Not that it really matters if we make the playoffs, because we certainly wouldn't trouble anyone. edit: and yes, the players did talk way too much before the game for my liking. Not so much JPP as he didn't say who's blood would be shed, just that it would be. But Thomas was just overconfidence and lacked respect.

kurtsimonw Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 We handled the gimmick nonesense with ease tonight. Tuck with 4 sacks clearly player of the game. 1st quarter was awful, but after that it was one way traffic. Nice win, but they're a really awful team.

abdomlahor Posted December 2, 2013 Share Posted December 2, 2013 We were caught with our pants down in the first quarter, but as you say, clear sailing from then. If only we'd managed to win last week. Sigh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kkr Posted December 4, 2013 Author Share Posted December 4, 2013 Justin Tuck NFC DPOW. Biff Fischerþ@armadillosports4m 1st 5 games, Giants allowed 113 pts in 2nd half (22.6 ppg). Last 7 games, they allowed 33 (4.7 ppg). Tom Rockþ@TomRock_Newsday1m TC asked if Giants made right decision to trade for Eli: "There's a couple things out in the hallway you might want to take a look at Presume that was in relation to a conference call with the SD media, still bitter about the trade.

I remember in an NFL top 10 thing, the Eli trade was rated as the worst trade ever. Of course, this is before Merriman disappeared and Eli went on to get his 2 Super Bowl MVPs.
