welcome back Casvdry!!!
(clenched teeth) good win, life moves on for us though.
still think if some of the non-calls were called we would have caught fire, but as the game dragged on my Team seemd increasingly deflated...
them's the breaks though

We have to remember SBs are not won in sept. in both of the last two SB seasons we lost out opening game to NFCE teams. Dallas 45-38 in 07 and I think 16-7 to skins last year.
Also if you remember we followed up the bad loss to Dallas in 07 with an even worse showing in the 2nd game getting destroyed by GB 35-13. Then fell behind in 3rd game 17-0 to skins in third game. Had lots of people hurt that yr to.
Last season more then half way in we go out and lose 5/6 games and look bad doing it. We then somehow turn it around and win final six beating some of the toughtest teams in the NFL..

2013? LGNYG bring home another Title this year!!!
Giants lost last yr's opener 28-14. Maybe we are better off starting 5-3 or 4-4 & then finishing strong with a 6-2 2nd half. Every yr under TC we have started at least 5-3 or 6-2 & then struggle in the 2nd half. We played like ***** & only lost by 7. G-men will fix their problems & laugh last at all the haters out there.
Believe it!
Tyron Smith struggled with the combo of strength and power of JPP. He was off balance most of the game when trying to lock up the 3rd year DE.
However when Osi was in, it was a piece of cake for Smith.-- at least on the plays that I noticed. Osi just doesn't have the power to muscle through him and Smith's quickness and footwork negated Osi's speed around the edge.
They're about the same in quickness, but JPP is stronger-- in fact he's probably one of the most naturally strong players in the NFL. (lb for lb of course).
There were a couple of times when Smith was driven back by JPP, and there were a couple of times Smith stood him up as well after the young LT got accustomed to his strength. But still it seemed like Smith was anxious to get his hands on JPP because of the threat of his bull rush, only to have JPP go around him.
Our d-line did not look good. Granted, your o-line has improved but they still have issues. However, my concern is with our o-line. Our O-line is horrible. DeMarcus Ware blew by David Diehl. DD was not even a speed bump in that match up.
Our O-line has been bad for awhile but with the strength of schedule as well as other teams coming after up real hard this season, something needs to be done to fortify our O-line or this is going to be a long painful season.
