Next up, the Ginats

I remember the last time GB faced the Giants after losing two in a row. Beat NY and didn't lose again that season. 

 

#justsaying

I just want the team to look better. 

 

No more defense getting pushed around for 9:00 drives. 

 

No more Jerrett Bush getting block in the back penalties making our 3rd string QB start drives at the 6 yard line.

 

No more Crosby hitting the fricking upright. No kicker has ever hit the goalpost more times than Mason Crosby, I'd be willing to bet on it.

 

MM and the offense need to find a way to finish drives. No more FGs after every 1st and goal situation.

1st and goal? RTFB 4 times. I'd <almost> rather come away without points than see them throw it on 2nd and 3rd and then settle for a FG.

 

 

Who will be playing on the line this week?  What positions will they play?  I think the answers to those questions will determine the game plan.  

SHOVEL PASSESS!

Yea, the OL could be a real mess if EDS and Barclay cant play. Then your looking at Sherrod and Taylor, with Lang at Center. Are there even any more backups on the team at OL? We might even be reduced to having some DL guys playing on the OL if EDS and Barclay cant go, and we have another injury there, without picking up someone off the street or PS help this week. If we need to get in new OL reinforcements, who gets cut or goes on IR?

Marshall Newhouse = tits on a bull.

as long as he's not out there we stand a chance.

murray, moreno and williams were the first 3 games of the year, seems to me they fixed the run defense.

Maybe, or teams were throwing more, or having to run less (short fields) thanks to Eli's eleventy-billion INTs. 

 

Jennings was the last game.

What is the over under on the number of minutes into the game when Packer fans start yelling at their TVs for MM to put Flynn in the game?

AR12 was manning the qb position.

Eli fan?

This could be a brutal game for the Packers depending who is inactive on the offensive line . As Wolf use to say you have to have 5 Offensive Linemen to play.

 

NY didn't lose their first 6 games because they're a powerhouse. They needed a blocked punt returned for a TD to beat Oakland on Sunday.

GB is seriously short handed but this game is very winnable. Defense needs to show up.

Andre Brown is a big boost for them.  Victor Cruz is one of the smoothest catching WRs in the game.  S Antrel Rolle is having a great year, too.  JPP said he felt all the way back finally a week ago.   

DBs need to be ready to catch the ball this week.  Just like with Brett they should know they're going to have opportunities this week.  Eli has made some brutal throws this year.   

Have to be concerned with the size of Randle and Nicks.  We've had a bunch of trouble in the past with the big guys. 

Tolzien has a weird release.  Ball seems to come out pretty flat.  May have just been a footwork issue but to me it seems it comes out fast but without much arc on it.  Seems to have the right mentality. John Madden was talking about him the other day.  He pays a good deal of attention to the 9ers and Raiders.  Said he was suprised Tolzien was let go.  Heard good things from inside the 9ers organization about the guy. 

Best twitter follow for the Giants, imo, is Paul Dottino .  Knows the roster in and out and is interactive with the fans.  He's been covering the Giants since the 80's.  Definitely more of a homer, but he tends to have the best stuff on radio interviews.    More like a Dunne or Hodkiewicz than a Wilde. 

YES! 

Havin some bad vibes about this upcoming game; however, I will try my best to behave myself because I 'll be damn if I am going to end up on Hungry5's negative nellies example list!!!

 

So to the Packers' Defense:  Show the F up!!!!  Aaahhhhhhh!

Oh, you're on a list.

 

is that D.B. Cooper, 4th from the middle?

D.E. Cooper. You need to have your eyes checked.

Gnats are building steam after starting ofer 6.

Is this game considered a must W?  IMO, it is.  If we win this game, at the worst we would be 6-6 after the Lions game.  If we lose this game, we could be 5-7, with 4 to go, not looking good.  Even with our injuries, we have the talent to win this game, D needs to play well, and let Tolzein and JJ, JN and EL make some plays.  

If the Packers D is looking to improve their interception record, this could be the game. You know Eli's going toss a least a couple up for grabs. Beyond that it'll be tough sledding playing them at home, record aside. Looking forward to seeing some more Tolzien to Bostick.

After back to back uninspiring performances I'm glad this team is hitting the road. Change of scenery might do them some good. 

 

Giants are a bad team this year. They've strung a few ugly wins together. It's a battle of who makes the fewest bad plays. 

 

Nothing I'd love to see more than GB's MASH unit sticking a fork in NY's season. 

Like the Eagles, the Gmen aren't always that good at home.

@BrianCarriveau

Worthy and Richardson practicing today. EDS as well. Barclay. Perry, Hayward, and Jolly not practicing. 

 

Decision on Worthy and Richardson needs to be made by a week from today. Tretter done for the year. Moved from PUP to IR.

Matthews not wearing a club.

Not sure how much Matthews is doing cuz we didn't see team drills. But he had his helmet and looked ready to work. Brace/splint on his hand

 

 

Mulumba is back.

 

 

 

@WesHod

Rodgers spent a lot of time with Tolzien during individual drills and appeared to be giving him direction on footwork and pointing out things he'll probably see. Flynn, signed on Tuesday, split the reps with Tolzien during the individual drills. Tolzien is expected to receive the bulk of the snaps during team drills.

MM in rare form today. Asked to comment on AR stepping up to help Tolzien. He said things along the lines of great player, great teammate, loves to win, trying to get Scott ready by talking from a QB perspective..... he caught himself going on and on about AR and said "I know you all think I say too many positive things about Aaron so I'll say something negative. I don't like his mustache"

 

Asked about having Worthy back. "Great to see him on the field. He had two good pass rushes and he jumped offsides twice, so we knew he's back"

Thanks for the update.  I wasn't aware this is a flex game, and the schedule on my wall still states it's the Sunday night game.  Same with the Falcons game, but that will probably be flexed as well.  I'll have to re-print the schedule.

(Offensive lineman) Barclay is better (physically) than we thought. He was waiting on a (knee) brace to get here, so hopefully he'll be able to do something (in practice Thursday).

The trainers can't make up a brace themselves?

What is with all this good news?
