*SDMF* Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 People around me were cheering "FIRE Gillbride!!!" I have never been more proud to be a giants fan. By the way, that no call facemask was garbage. The refs almost bstole the game from us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishgutmartyr Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 You guys are watching an offense bail-out a defense that gave up 31 pts at home and couldn't stop the opponent at all during the second half of the game and are chanting to fire the OC? I think I'm going to stay out of this section for a while. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*SDMF* Posted November 23, 2009 Author Share Posted November 23, 2009 yeah, the same offense that went 3nout when a first down wins the game. the same offense that gets lucky throwing the ball 29 yards down the feild on 3rd n 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I called that play to my buddy. "Watch this fuckwad is going to throw a 30 yard pass here... ha ha ha...... WTF he actually did!" If that ball was dropped Gil would be unemployed today....

It was a dumb play call, even if it did work. How many times was that same exact play an incompletion two weeks ago? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackStroud Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 they showed the phantom face mask call on slo mo the guy had pulled the jersey over the face mask he did not grab the mask........he was tugging on the jersey it sure looked like facemask without the slo mo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightFire Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 hah and if my aunt had balls she'd be my uncle. Gotta love posters. Even when it works Gilbride still sucks. The guy will never win; don't be so predictable but don't throw on 3rd and 2, stop throwing so much but when 3 consecutive run plays stall there should have been a throw.

I am not saying a pass play is a bad call, what I am saying is throwing 30 yards when you need 2 is not going to end in your favor more often then not.

Mr. P Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 And how did that same exact situation work out in the Chargers Game? my point is, its manning looking at the field and deciding to throw it to the deep route, its not gilbride with the ball in his hand. now if you wanted to argue that it should have been a run instead of a pass then maybe we could. but im pretty sure most pass plays have more than one player running a route.

JMFP Posted November 23, 2009 Share Posted November 23, 2009 Speaking as someone who is a frequent Gilbride critic, he shut me up yesterday. A lot of it had to do with Manning, but whatever the case, the offense was clicking yesterday. Honestly, if the Giants had lost, I would not have faulted Gilbride at all. The fact is, Eli Manning saved that game from being another heartbreaking defensive disaster. When you're up 14 points late in the 4th quarter, the only way you lose if if the defense lets you down.

One of my criticisms of Gilbride is that there's a disconnect between the plays and game conditions (score, time, weather, etc). Yesterday wasn't the case. Manning was clearly locked in, and the defense was sucking late-game ass, as usual. So, I'll give him credit were credit is due.....he dialed up an aggressive gameplan because the defense was clearly going to lose the game.

I realize I'm looking a little far ahead, but after watching Eli, and then watching the Bears/Philly game, I'm thinking that the Eagles corners are in bad shape. Sheldon Brown in man coverage with his crappy hammy is something that will be exposed next time around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell if the Giants D plays that badly the Eagles D can just wander around and it wouldn't matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheldon Brown in man coverage with his crappy hammy is something that will be exposed next time around. and I saw Asante Samules (sp) was biting hard on the slant plays so I say we should see some Slant and go plays from Manningham or Smith. get Samules to bite then cut back to to outside hashmarks and burn downfield Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell if the Giants D plays that badly the Eagles D can just wander around and it wouldn't matter. I agree that the D needs to be straightened out in a hurry, starting on Thanksgiving. But, I also think that the offense will need to keep humming to give the Giants a chance at the playoffs.....our special teams and defense simply can't be trusted to win games.
