Lubeck Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Please dont think Patriot is a typical Giants fan, infact I think this entire board doesnt support any of his statements one bit.... I'm surprised he hasent been banned by now. I look at it this way....out of all the comments Eggie could reply to and try and spark a conversation he goes after patriot.

BadEgg Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I look at it this way....out of all the comments Eggie could reply to and try and spark a conversation he goes after patriot. Hmmm...re-read the thread. I went after no one except Manning. And then I responded to the only person who addressed me directly. At least I think he was the only person, as I cannot guarantee that I read ever post. I think it is the opposite. More often than not, Patriot attacks me. And that is fine with me. He has every right to. And he is very entertaining. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BronxRik Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Why don't you wait and see what Romo the Homo does on Sunday before you are critical of the MVP of the last Super Bowl. The Homo never has gotten to a Super Bowl because: "HE SUCKS". Your comment is all that can be expected from an uneducated Cowturds fan and supporter . Soooo.......I'm guessing you're not a big Romo fan, huh? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were walking down the street and a mentally handicapped person started pointing and making fun of you, would you respond or would you feel sorry for the lad and move along?

NeMesiS Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 the dog has a difficult time understanding why everyone assumes there would be a dramatic difference in Eli Manning as a QB...the reality is, he was not spectacular during the run last post-season...he simply didn't make mistakes that he has a tendency to do. The dog still believes that last year's run had less to do with Eli Manning being a great QB, and more to do with a defensive coach and front 7 that dominated. Last night was what the dog expected - he is still about average as far as QB's in the NFL go...doesn't mean they can't win it all with him (obviously), but why the crazy expectations that he would have this elevated game is beyond me... The Dog didn't think Eli was 'Spectacular' during last year SB run? Shocking! You're right, there was nothing spectacular about going into Tampa and having more than a solid performance against the 1# ranked pass defense and overall defense. I guess there was nothing 'spectacular' about Eli scoring a TD with less than a minute before the first half end against the Cowboys. Or the fact that he out performed a legendary QB, in -20 degree weather, on the road. Or, with 2:39 minutes left on the clock, he drives his team 83 yards, is involved in one the greatest play in SB history (if not the greatest play) and score the winning TD for his 6th come back from behind win of the year. Oh, BTW, he did that against one of the great team in NFL history. But you're right, nothing 'spectacular' at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeMesiS Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 The Skins defensive backfield was banged up. Manning should have lit them up. Anyone of the top 5 QBs in this league would have. In light of the Giants outstanding defense, primarily their coach, I am thrilled as a Cowboys fan that Eli is the QB. Oh, believe me Badegg, so are we.

BadEgg Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Oh, believe me Badegg, so are we. Leave Eli with all of his weapons and you take away the Giants pass rush, they are a 7-9 team. This team lives and dies on its defense. Just as it did in last year's playoff run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gateb Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 The Skins were getting a good rush and our WRs looked pretty tired in the 2nd half. Why Gilbride was having us throw as much as he did in the 2nd half is beyond me. They couldn't stop the run. I think we were spoiled by that first half and how sharp we are. That's really rare for an opening game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BurnThePhilFans Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Badegg our team lives and survives through only our defense??? First off thats absurd as you should know Plaxico demolished your secondary in the first meeting last year scoring 3 touchdowns, Jacobs has had his way with you guys too and the man you constantly rip on (Eli) has had several good games vs the Cowboys. And even if it were true that all we have is D what point are you trying to make? Thats like me saying you guys are a 7-9 team without Owens. Get over yourself. Weapons are weapons. I guess the Patriots are a 8-8 team without Brady and Moss? Your like a 5 year old trying to prove a point that doesn't mean anything Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In light of the Giants outstanding defense, primarily their coach, I am thrilled as a Cowboys fan that Eli is the QB. That' not a given, it just seems likely. And Eli could have as well, but he plays virtually mistake free football, relies on his big target(who had 133 yds last nite) and a very good run game and D. He sees the big picture, not just mastering the reg. season and one and done in the postseason. Dont forget, Eli's 1st win was against Dallas. I'm glad your thrilled.

xxi-xxv Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Are Payton Manning and Tom Brady spectacular? Why you ask? Well if 60% comp, 95+ Qb rating and 6-1 TD to INT ratio are spectacular, things that they rugularly do then ELI was spectacular. Its really this simple. You take the stats(which all the ESPNites love to look at and the overrated QB rating system) and the end result an MVP award, a SB championship and beating a #1 #2 and #1 seed in each conference all the while on the road then yesELI was spectacular. If one feels he was not? Well then I suppose there is no such thing as a spectacular QB performance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 The Giants O looked a bit inconsistent overall last night. The Eli pick was just awful, but there were a few near picks that quite obviously weren't his fault. And drops, drops, drops. Plax and Jacobs both had passes hit them in the hands and dropped 'em.

Lubeck Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 Plax was pretty well covered but everyone I was watching the game with agreed that he should have caught it. But given his performance we all agreed he got a pass. Jacobs though, he needs to work on catching the ball. If he could get open in the flat with the field open infront of him and only smaller DBs to stop him, that would be dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Two tickets for every player man Jerry Jones went all out with that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
