Game Plan
Well it has been hard to get back into the groove after the NFC championship lose. But I have rewatched the game and noticed some similaritites between that game and the Dallas Game.
1. AL HARRIS WAS OWNED. I mean really Al is a great corner but when it comes to bigger recievers he tends to get pushed around. WHy was Al left on the island so long with no help. I dont know what the philosiphie was going into the half but it seemed to me the lack of abilitie to control Buress was huge.
2. Safety Play Overall Bigby was Ok. But Collins was often out of possition many times. I am a bigger believer in Aaron Rouse who showed he could play in space better than Collins and had the ability to make the big plays ie INTs. He also matched up better on big recievers if the Corners got ate up on the crosses.
3. Gave up the run. We had a guy in Grant who the previous week matriculated 220 yards on the ground. Like the dallas game we gave on the run way to early 19 carries in the championship was not going to be enough and the D line simply wore down.
4. Way to many deep routes.
Just like the Dallas game I told the guy sitting next to me if the pack goes away from what got em there they would lose maybe not ugly but it would not be good. THere were way to many times the underneath stuff was open. There were dropped balls yes but you have to keep at it. Crosses and Slugo's and other stuff underneith will often get lineman to play on their heels.
5. Bretts play. Lets be honest he was flat out showed up by Eli. While it was wicked cold Brett seemed to be more effected by it that Eli. The shot of Brett trying to stuff heat packs down his face mask was classic. He is still the man when it comes to being tough but the Giants out toughed all the pack.
Well ok I ranted my bit and got it out there. Now off to the business season and we will see what that brings cant wait for next year.
