Is the little old lady from Poltergeist still alive?

Need the entire locker room, practice area, stadium exercised.

It’s a curse at this point that has happened upon the team and franchise.
Get rid of everyone and start over.

Unfortunately need to let Jones, Barkley, Engram and Toney go be happy and successful elsewhere.

Jones and Toney can stay
 
Penny's 15 yard taunting penalty cost the Giants that game. Up 'till then I had been pleased with his play thus fat this year.

I view it differently - while many expected a blow out by the Chiefs - the Giants had a good chance to win last night on the road in a tough place to play (Arrowhead) even with a lot of injuries. They played a very good defensive game but with some costly stupid mistakes (i.e. being drawn offsides negating a game critical interception, the taunting penalty and misuse of time outs). IMO this one was on on the coaching staff.

Outside of the timeouts it wasn't on the coaching staff, particularly the taunting.

Coaching has to get you over that hump. Needed some better play designs; a little more trickery late in game. I like he finally goes for it on 4th down; took him 20+ games to figure that out.

Coaching to me is more than schemes and game-planning. It is also the regimentation of players to not do stupid things that hurt the team's chances of winning. I view taunting as a coaching issue.

For a coach who comes form a culture of no mistakes. This team seems the exact opposite. Go back to the WFT game. An offsides that has no effect on the play- cost a game.

The way Giants played the safeties is what Rutgers should have done against OSU and MSU. The Giants defense let Chiefs pick up a lot of yards but kept them from scoring TDs. That is a very good defensive strategy. Why can't Rutgers learn from this?

The fact that nearly every time they show Judge on the sidelines it looks like he yelling and cursing about something, I'm not surprised that this team is undisciplined.

Maybe that style of coaching has some benefits. Maybe it keeps guys engaged, maybe it fires guys up, but it does seem to have drawbacks.

Considering there is no reason to show him any other time I think you've fallen prey to selective editing

Nah. They show him a ton, and it's pretty much always the same.

Other coaches, not so much.
 
13 positive one day only one the next day. Shows how bad these tests are. Barkley is one of the 13
 
Cleveland Browns not releasing Beckham but saying he isn’t part of the team anymore. Man am I glad he isn’t the Giants headache anymore.

Eh. I'd still have rather had Beckham on the team than the ongoing combination of Golden Tate/Kenny Golladay debacle.
His guaranteed money/dead cap in 2022 and 2023 is $0.
Browns can move on now and use that money for a non-injury prone player.
His contract is basically over.

What's the worst that could have happened if we kept Beckham?
Have the worst team in the league since 2019?
Don't worry - that has already happened.

The alternative is Golladay with the following cap hits on a team going nowhere:
2022: 23.6m (23.6m dead cap)
2023: 21.4m (10m dead cap)
2024: 21.4m (6.8m dead cap)
 
What a stupid tweet by Toney. He is defending Henry Ruggs who just killed someone driving drunk at 150mph. What a idiot. I don’t have the best grammar on here but this kid dosent seem like he could pass a grade school English class.
 
Really never thought I’d have to worry about the Giants becoming a clown show organization. But here we are.

Think I posted this already but the Giants were a clown show organization for almost 2 decades leading up to the arrival of George Young. It all comes down to the VP/GM. They needed to move on from Gettleman already and it continues to hurt them. No trades at the deadline, for instance could have moved on from Engram who is not signed for next year.........Gettleman is still trying to protect his own job instead of looking to make even small moves to try and rebuild.

He has shown symptoms of a mild case OBJ Syndrome. Hope it doesn't worsen.

What? Toney has been a bad pick so far and trending worse now.
He's had 1 very good game (10 catches, 189y, 0td).
5 no-show games aside from that and mounting injuries.

OBJ punched a guy who came into the game provoking OBJ.
Toney punched a guy during his one good game of the season

OBJ averaged over 100 y/g his rookie year with 12 TDs
Toney is at 49 y/g with 0 TDs

OBJ kicked a FG net out of frustration.
Toney is going out of his way to tweet about a guy who murdered someone.

If only Toney could have mild symptoms of OBJ as an actual player.
 
My roommate from RU just sent me this.
He's a Broncos fan and I'm not talking to him anymore.

 
It was close 'till the end, but thank you Steelers! That Chicago #1 keeps getting better.

I’m glad the Bears lost too, but I’m hearing everywhere that the refs screwed them bad on multiple calls. I’ll take it though.

I was only half watching at the very end.
Obviously we have a vested interest in Chicago losing but I was fine with the Taunting penalty.

He literally walked towards the other sideline and punter coming on the field.
On replay it looks like he was turned slightly away from the punter but it's a quick decision on the field for the refs to make.

I get that the rule sucks and needs to be changed.
But it's still the rule for now so I thought penalty was deserved.
 
Yes! Great day with both WFT and Eagles continuing to score points and win games.

Firmly in last place but bright side - was a great day for our draft picks!

So much for the Giants being clearly better than both Philly and WFT and those organizations being in disarray.
WFT already won the division last year and Philly is banging on a WC spot this year.
