Shockey1979 110 Posted September 27 Well... if the offense struggles this week.... then all hope is lost Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
minutemancl 313 Posted September 28 The Saints defense has been very bad. If the Giants can hold of Cameron Jordan, the offense could have another big day. Our defense has played well and the Saints offense has been great. However the 1 non-divisional game they've played has been outside, not in a dome, in Cleveland and they only scored 21. Hopefully it is a fun game. It could get out of hand if the Giants offense stalls and Brees and co start rolling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Go_Giants 19 Posted September 28 I don't believe the Saints coaching staff is as horrible as the Texans. The only two positives I can think of for the Giants is teams that have played in over time have not done to well the next game and that the Saints are not playing in a dome. Other than that if we have no Vernon and no Apple I have no idea how we slow down the Saints high powered offensive attack. All the Saints have to do to slows our offense down is send pressure and have their defensive line men do stunts and twist much like what Dallas did. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

minutemancl 313 Posted September 28 Vernon goes from never missing a game to missing 4 in 2 consecutive seasons with us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Go_Giants 19 Posted September 30 I think this is the season, if we lose we then have to go on the road to face a rested Panthers team, then have a short week against the Eagles. I do not think there is any recovering from a 1-5 start. I wish we had Vernon and Apple for this. Unless the Saints do what the Texans did and not manufacture a lot of pressure on Eli, I don't see how the Giants can win this. The Saints have a horrible defense again so thinking we can keep it close. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

YogiBiz 67 Posted September 30 (edited) I completely expect the offense to at least keep pace. Cam Jordan (while really freaking good) is no JJ Watt, so maybe Wheeler doesn't give up 3 Sacks again. They don't have a comparable guy to Clowney or Mercilus and if that secondary continues to be average at best, I think we have a chance.

Acgott 244 Posted September 30 I love when another game is in OT. That’s the fastest quarter ever. And amazing start. My god Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Go_Giants 19 Posted September 30 The Giants weren't aggressive throwing the ball even mid range till around the end of the 3rd quarter by that time it was too late. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Saints were at the 3 and we needed one stop to get the ball back. They allowed 97 yards in 6 plays. The offense was miserable and the defense was just a bit better.
