Bigblue25 Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 How do you base your decision in regards to your next head coach who will be responsible for the course of the franchise on a 35 year old quarterback? That's what they seemingly did. Maybe they were doing their due diligence but tgey interviewed McAdoo and then interviewed 12 other candidates and seemed on the verge of hiring Hue Jackson instead. They really don't fire head coaches unless it's really mediocre(i.e Fassell.) They probably do give McAdoo at least the chance to find Eli's heir apparent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now I want McAdoo to earn the job he was given by production this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UK-Giantsfan Posted August 29, 2016 Author Share Posted August 29, 2016 If i were Jerry Reese id be considering ringing the 49ers and offering a 3rd round draft pick for Anthony Davis right now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 If i were Jerry Reese id be considering ringing the 49ers and offering a 3rd round draft pick for Anthony Davis right now Davis is the starting RG and backup RT on the Niners. That ship has unfortunately sailed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. P Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 and it seems like the 49ers were happy to have Davis back and had no intention of trading him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nas Posted August 29, 2016 Share Posted August 29, 2016 That's my point. The insistence that Flowers couldn't possibly be moved onto the right side hurt the chances dramatically that the Giants would improve the OL. I can agree with this take... to some extent.

Bigblue25 Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 Davis is the starting RG and backup RT on the Niners. That ship has unfortunately sailed. Yep. Don't know what happened but back in April he didn't want to be reinstated until they traded his rights and he was slamming the organization. Now he said he wants to be a Niner for life and even went out of position for them. He's a Jersey kid who went to Rutgers and spent his year of retirement in New Jersey, So I think Giants fans got their hopes up for him to come to his hometown team. Honestly even if he became available they wouldn't of traded for him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firstnten Posted August 30, 2016 Share Posted August 30, 2016 There are two things this offensive line has going going it this year. The Giants defense looks much improved, and the NFC east doesn't look super competitive. Other than that I don't see an upside. No matter what plug and play players they pick up from the trash heap. Giants.com keeps spinning that Pugh has more an impact on continuity that most think. Says when he gets in flowers play will improve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Really interesting play by the O-line this week. In-line blocking they were terrible, just flat-out getting destroyed on every snap. Mac switched them to more pulls and traps, and all of a sudden they looked pretty decent. It'll be intriguing to see what happens moving forward. Trap-blocking lines tend to really have a hard time with physical D-lines, and Dallas' D-line was anything but physical, but still, it was nice to see a legit running game at the end where we needed it.

gmenroc Posted September 12, 2016 Share Posted September 12, 2016 Yeah, the line certainly wasn't great, but they did okay. Eli, you can tell, was trying to move in the pocket a little bit, but by choice, not really being forced out. His footwork seemed to aid the offensive line a little bit. There's reason for some confidence there, but there's also still room for concern. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted September 17, 2016 Share Posted September 17, 2016 I thought the OL did faar better than advertised. Ofcourse - the real test will be against Minnesota - but I was honestly expecting a lot worse and was quite pleasantly surprised by the blocking in the run game. If this team could find a reliable pass catching TE - it could work wonders. I miss Shockey...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

osi724dasack Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Black Unicorn was the guy we should have paid. He's a tremendous blocker, huge and basically an extra Left/Right Tackle, who can go out and catch a few balls too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Storm Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 Shockey Developed Stone hands. Thats why he is out of the league Shockey is out of the league because his playing days were behind him like 5 years ago. He was drafted in 2002. By most tight end measures, he had a productive and stellar career. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
