BlueInCanada Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Oh oh oh oh Trevis Backham would of made a great TE if Gilly knew how to use him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 I think I proclaimed Eli a total bust during that 4 INT game against Minnesota. I'm pretty sure that's the same year we won the Superbowl. Honorable mention to any receiver that I lost a dollar bet on to Treehumper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 With all the nonsense going on in the Webb WAVIED thead with folks trying to find threads of others predicting greatness for Webb, I thought it would be fun for those of us willing to admit, to look back on our own gaffes. I think my worst was pronouncing Coughlin a bona fide failure after game 2 of 2007 season when Eli hurt his shoulder. Of course he only won a SB that year. doh I was right there with you in 2007. I thought the Giants may be the worst team in football that year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandolphScott Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Beckum would have been good under GASP. The Coughlin/MacAdoo system from 2014-2015. I mean, they got Larry Donnell 6 TDS and over 600 yards one season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iceman_NYG Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 My worst prediction was that Shockey would move on a become one of the all-time greats. He was good but flamed out too quickly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayD Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Hmm, nope. Everything Ive said has been spot on. Jk Seriously though, I had all kinds of hope for Barden. Thought Flowers was gonna be good, even after his rookie year. Definitely thought Web was our next QB. Oh I thought Kurt Warner was gonna get us a ring. Mm Im sure I have a few more failed predictions, just to tired to think of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Oh, also I thought we should have cut Tiki Barber after his season of 800 fumbles. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayD Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 You might have been right about that one Seph. We won I think like 3 games his last year completely on his shoulders. That would have been higher draft picks for us in Elis second year if we would have lost those games. Might have had an even better draft class. They did win a Super Bowl that next year though, so no point in messing with it lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Herc Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 Oh man I remember being so mad at tiki having that crazy last game against Washington. I thought it saved coughlins job and dropped us too low to draft Patrick Willis. Like Reese wouldve drafted a linebacker in the first round lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chuck Wagon Posted September 4, 2018 Share Posted September 4, 2018 I thought sitting Eli for Geno made really good sense at the time. ...prior to that....my 3rd grade brain thinking Rocky Thompson was the second coming of Kyle Rote.

fringe Posted September 4, 2018 Author Share Posted September 4, 2018 Sportswrath was but a twinkle in Nems eyes ( who was but a twinkle in his Moms eyes) in the rocky Thompson era. But, I was sure Tucker Fredrickson over Gale Sayers was the money move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as we know...65 was all about running backs.....like 5 of their 10 picks or so. Jesus ...they had NO idea how many fights I had over that period because the Gman sucked so fucking bad. I am sure I got CTE over all that shit by the early 70s. C. Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueInCanada Posted September 5, 2018 Share Posted September 5, 2018 I never seen the Giant's doing anything more than 8-8 last season even with a full team. McAttack was garbage the moment he took the HC and was only bailed out of games by better defensive play. I had no illusions the Giants would even make the playoffs again after sneaking in the previous year due to a weak division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
