Defense needs to answer here. Momentum still seems to be somewhat in the giants favor at the moment. This game is far from over.

Wow! HUGE play there. Great play by Oliver and Murphy! Momentum shifter right there! I don’t blame them for taking a knee and collecting themselves, especially since we start with the ball in the 3rd.

Hell of a punt by Bojo. Horrible punt coverage that likely just gave the Giants points and some momentum after a bad series by the offense.

I hope Ty Nsekhe can come back in this game...

Come on Allen. Let’s get another 7!

Hyde! What a hit! You could see that guy’s Bell was rung.

Come on, hold em here!

Come on defense. Get this game back under control.

Hausch-money.

Motor!!!! 1st TD (of many more to come)!

Yeah I think he got a bit too excited when he saw a Brown open and put too much on it. But hey, at least he saw it, right! lol

Learning moment for Singletary there. He can’t pause and stutter step, he has to just get that yard and get the 1st.

There ya go defense!

Great drive by the offense! We are right back in this! Now the D needs to show that they can contain Barkley, and th offense needs to keep playing like that!

I was feeling good about this game too, and I should have known that was a bad thing...lol.

That was an awful series. I don’t know if it was the Defensive play calls or the execution or what, but it was ugly whatever it was.

Damn, they’re gouging the ***** of f us so far. That was way too easy for them. Yikes.

Music to my ears! (or eyes...?) Yes please!

I’m guessing Barkley, especially with all the injuries to the NYG wide receivers.

Not sure who’s story is true, Matt or Ron (nor do I really care), but either way Ron is admitting the Sabres/Canucks rumors were totally false.

Marner finally signed! The flood gates should hopefully break loose now and we should start seeing all the RFA’s sign I’d think. Hell of a deal for Marner! 6yrs x $10.893 per year (almost $1M per year than Eichel, and for 2 years less!). This makes Marner the 2nd highest paid wing in the NHL, and 7th highest paid player overall. 2nd to Panarin, who signed for 7yrs as an unrestricted free agent (so the rangers bought all UFA years). Marner’s deal bought 2 UFA years. The Leafs now have the 3rd, 5th and 7th highest paid players on their roster. IIRC, I don’t believe any team has ever won it all (in the salary cap era) with two $10+M players on their roster, let alone 3. It’ll be interesting to see how they manage the cap moving forward. They have a # of key UFA’s on defense next year too (Muzzin and Barrie) who are both due for nice raises (or at least Barrie, for sure). They are going to have to hit in the draft and keep that pipeline stocked.

Dustin Byfuglien (The Jets #1 RHD) just took a surprise leave of absence from the team on the 1st day of training camp. Here is wha5bthe coach and GM had to say - I saw some Jets fans wondering if he could possibly be considering retirement. I guess they always wondered if he would retire when the 2 years remaining on his contract are up (they said it was unusual he only took a 5yr deal at the time and there has always been talk that he doesn’t want to play past his mid 30’s). I guess there were also some whispers last season that he considered retirement but nothing ever substantiated. IF he does retire (and that’s a Big if), they would be even more desperate for a right handed defenseman. They already need 1 with Buff in the lineup, having lost 2 of their 3 starting RHD from last year. Without him, they are in DIRE NEED of a RHD (since they’d have lost all 3 of their top 3 RHD). They’ve already completed their rebuild too. It took years. They window is open right now. I love watching Buff play, but man, if he retires it could potentially be good for the Sabres...lol

There was a good article about this on WGR https://wgr550.radio.com/articles/opinion/mcdermott-didnt-blink

I have yet to see that “Ranting Ron” guy call anything, has anyone else? As of now I’m not putting a whole lot of stock into what he says. He seems the type that just throws stuff out there to generate conversation on his twitter feed.

https://www.cincyjungle.com/2018/8/31/17797904/explaining-pup-nfi-ir-other-injury-nfl-roster-designations-cuts-53-man-roster according to this article, suspended players are moved to the reserve/suspended list and do not count against the 53 man roster.
