We are losing our Superbowl Team

[Diamondring]

With the losses we have, I feel that the Giants have lost the title without playing a single game and we might as well not look at the Giants play football this year.

That was just a joke but I feel that we are losing our Superbowl team because of certain departures. I also feel that we needed to improve the team but with some of the players we lost, the Giants might just be patching up the team. What you guys think about the Giants chances right now and how much of an impact the players we lost helped the Giants?

im concerned about MLB and RB.
i think they are fine though......but its too soon to tell, nobody gave the giants a chance throughout the season.

time marches on and things change. we won the super bowl and that is in the past. it's time to begin the trek again with some new players who may be even better than the ones that left. it's an exciting time to be a giants fan!

If it makes you feel better, we just won another and had a much different team.

I don't think a single player that caught a ball in SB 42 besides Bradshaw or Jacobs was even playing for the Giants this time around. Strahan is obviously retired, I think we have totally new DT's, our offensive line was completely different, totally new safeties, totally new LB's.

The key guys are still there. Eli, Bradshaw, we still have our stud receivers, JPP and Tuck and I'm really hoping Osi. Webster and of course Coach Coughlin.

After XLII who did we lose? Strahan to retirement, Gebril Wilson, Kawika Mitchell, Regie Torbor, Toomer was in the doghouse...

Right now I think our biggest problem is the O-line needs destruction. Jacobs was done, IMO, and we needed to move on. Ross was sometimes mediocre and sometimes brilliant and we'll miss the depth at secondary but we have a platoon of people coming back from injury. Manningham was nice to have but we have Nicks and Cruz ahead of him, so someone can step up and fill the #3 role. Goff is shopping around (I would like to keep him but we have Herzlich, Williams, and Jones on tap) and Chase deserves a shot in camp that he might not get.

None of these losses are critical, I'm more worried about the O-line and the future of Osi.

Long live GWAT!!

I'd like some insurance at RB, but other than that I'm not that worried.

We still have Eli, good coaching & scouting. We have just as good a chance of winning another SB as anyone else in the league.

[miked1958]

We are in an age where a SB winning team can't poss keep all it's players with the Cap structure and with a Ton of key players becoming URFA each offseason.

You not only have a prov resigning who is a FA, but also with guys still under contract thinking they are under paid. Cruz, Osi, BJ to name a few

This is why its almost impossible to repeat.Depth guys get grabbed by other teams for more money
