Lubeck Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Bucky Brooks at NFL.com has been giving top 5 rankings. Not a single Giant has made a single list. You'd think at least Tuck or Osi would make it. And MAYBE Webster at CB. Yet they consistently have been delivering a top 5 defense the past couple of seasons. Now that is teamwork. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuck played injured the 2nd half of last season. Osi was out entirely Webster is just now emerging as a "recognized" talent Were a team of nobodies, but hey were solid all over the roster Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the Giants do have nice depth, especially on the DL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarence the Blue Puppet Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 Jacobs isn't a top 5 running back? NOBODY in the league wants to tackle this guy. The position is about more than just yards. Being a sports analyst has to be the easiest job in the world. In all honesty though, as frustrated as I get when the Giants don't get any respect, they always seem to play better when under the radar. So if that's what it takes to get more trophies, keep it up media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allstarjim Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 I should have been more specific...as far as I know he has only ranked defensive players. I think Osi and Tuck are both in the top 5 DE's in the NFL. Webster is DEFINITELY a top 5 CB. He allowed 1 TD all year. Nnamdi Asomugha allowed only 9 CATCHES all year, though. I think Canty and Kenny Phillips both have the potential to be considered top 5 at DT and S after this year, we will see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BIGBLUE01 Posted July 4, 2009 Share Posted July 4, 2009 yeah they went as alternates we obviously need to have some more impact players Dont type that last line to make it seem like you were right. You said only our kicker and punter went. Wrong, so did our QB and DE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We should have sent 13 pro bowlers like the Dallas Cowboys. Because thats what defines a SB Champ....how many they sent to the Pro Bowl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
