Doc Brown Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Giants defense got embarrassed in Dallas so they'll be motivated to be much better in their home opener.

eball Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Ok, so one of the things we do fantastically well here on TSW is overreact to a given week's result -- good or bad. I'm going to try and buck that trend here, because as others have noted the Giants' offense has some formidable weapons. I'm confident McD will devise a scheme to limit big plays but it will absolutely be incumbent upon the Bills to score points on offense -- I think they'll need at least 24 -- and to limit the turnovers that plagued them this week. Despite the Giants' poor showing in Dallas they will be motivated to win at home and even their record. I believe they'll learn from their mistakes in Dallas and feed Barkley more. They also know they got no pass rush to speak of in Dallas and will probably start bringing extra bodies to try and pressure the inexperienced Allen. I'd like to see the screen game if that happens. It's a little surprising to me that the Bills have opened as favorites, and I would expect the line to move closer to a pick'em throughout the week. It's funny, I think I was more confident the Bills would beat the Jets than I am about this week's game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they weren't motivated to play against a divisional opponent that beat them 4 consecutive times leading up to the game, what are they doing in the NFL? Now, I do agree that it should be another close game, but the bold statement just doesn't make much sense to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Golden*Wheels Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 (edited) If he is still on their roster by next week, target Antonio Hamilton! Francesa on WFAN: 'Giants have got no defense No pass rush No corners But this is the easy part of their schedule, they have to beat Buffalo.' I hope they repeat their idiotic mistakes from last week, like not feeding Barkley, like thinking Eli is mobile, etc etc etc. Man the Bills have to feel good going back to MetLife again. Also says, the Giants should not be the underdogs in this game. Giants are better. Hmm! Edited September 9, 2019 by Golden*Wheels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said the Bills won a game they had no business winning and "have a quarterback, in Allen, who had their fans longing for Nathan Peterman." Uhhhh...no. Then he grudgingly said that the Bills do have a good defense but he truly believes that the tire fire Giants are a better team. The Bills could certainly lose that game but the Giants are not a better team by any stretch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frez Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 I watched the Giants game yesterday. The Giants have pretty good talent. My opinion is , the Cowboys were on fire yesterday and were unstoppable. The Buffalo Bills will have their hands full next Sunday. Im pretty sure the Giants are a much better more physical team than the NY Jets based on what I saw yesterday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Top notch entertainment. Yeah, I purposely listened today to hear the reactions of Joe Benigno & Evan Roberts (both Jest fans) and the aforementioned afternoon blowhard who loves the Giants and is a long-time Bill Parcells ballwasher who loves to rag on the Jest and Mets every chance he gets. I was thankful for several laugh worthy moments today. As a Met fan, I listen to WFAN fairly frequently, and the fans in the NYC area who cheer for all of the local teams are some of the most insufferable in the country. Probably second only to Boston sports fans. I hope the Bills have shaken off the rust and lay a beat down on the blue New Jersey team this Sunday.

As @Virgil points out, having him cover Barkley ensures good tackling. ON the other hand. E. Engram is a beast of a receiving TE. Perhaps put Edmunds on Engram and Milano following Barkley around? Otherwise, rush Manning and he should throw and INT or two. ed oliver is gonna be a beast. i don't know who the center is for the gmen, but eli needs a pocket to step up in. i'm also grateful lorax is calling the pass rush schemes pre play. they are gonna need to get it with the front 4 so the lbs can do their thing. hopefully lorax will be calling his own no. a lot. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on. He came out of retirement because the station manager or CEO of Entercom went to his home and begged him to come back because their new afternoon drive show was not doing well. They threw a boatload of money at him and he jumped at it and has been mailing it in ever since. Since his retirement, he's been all about promoting his stupid, overpriced app which is going belly up on October 1st. Who the hell would pay $8.99 per month or $98.99 for a one-year subscription to listen to his insufferable diatribes? Apparently, not many. ? Listening to him for free is one thing but to pay for an arrogant, mouth-breathing, boor who never lets any of his callers finish a sentence is absolutely asinine. I can only take him in small doses before I have to listen to something else. It's amazing to me the number of people in the Big Apple who worship at his bloated altar.

I don't think they ran a single one vs. the Jets. I hope they run some more designed plays like that vs. the Giants, and balance the pass/run ratio a little better.

DuckyBoys Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 We have crisp tackling on Sunday the Bills will win Barkley is the most physically gifted back the league has seen since Bo Jackson. Eli will throw 40 checkdowns within 10 yards of the los. I fully expect Hyde/Power to come up with at least one turnover from Eli and I'd expect the corners to sit on anything over 15 yards especially outside.

Certainly seemed to be the case yesterday. But I'm still not ready to crown his ass as an accurate passer. The thing about Josh that has impressed me the most is his nack for coming through in the clutch. That's whey I changed my avatar to Roger, who was on of the best at this. Hoping Josh keeps it up. And continues to improve all parts of his game. Edited September 9, 2019 by reddogblitz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
