GMENNATION Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 Have I mentioned I hate prime time games? The narrative is obvious here. (1) Does Odell play? All signs point to yes. The extra week was wise, despite the fact that we obviously could have used him against Dallas. This season is a marathon, not a sprint. We need him to be right. (2) Please let this OL have a good game to ease our concerns. The defense should be okay against this Lions offense. Stafford is playing at a high level but we have one of the best secondaries in the league and they should stop him. Contain Theo Riddick out of the backfield and our defense should be fine.

Go_Giants Posted September 12, 2017 Share Posted September 12, 2017 I do wonder if Odell is using this to try and help make his case that he should be the highest paid player in the league. If he is then he might just not play Monday night to show the Giants how valuable he is and to make sure his ankle is 100 percent right. I hope he does play Monday, but I can't rule him out looking out more for his money than for the team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems to me if he came back and had a big game against Detroit- after that fiasco the Odell-deprived Giants went through in Dallas- his value to the team would be unmistakable. If it isn't already. Suppose he catches 8 passes for 2TD's in Monday's game- in other words, 2 more than their entire team could without him? Right now, I wonder if there is any one player on other team as irreplaceable as is Odell to the Giants. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odell is clearly the best player on the team and incredibly valuable to the offense, but the connection to how inept our offense was last week and Odell being out is incredibly over blown. Did people forget we averaged under 20 points last season and we're one of the worst offenses in the league? That was WITH Odell. Not down playing how great of a player he is. But the offense has proven to be inept with or without him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GMENNATION Posted September 13, 2017 Share Posted September 13, 2017 The whole Odell getting paid argument is completely ridiculous in the first place. He has years of productivity and moments that have built his resumè as not only the best player on our team, but one of the best players in the league, period. The man is going to make multiple truck loads of money and the Giants loss to the Cowboys Sunday night has NOTHING to do with it. A potential loss to Detroit on Monday night will have NOTHING to do with it. People seem to always make these crazy accusations about him. The dude has been a gamer for us since Day 1. When we were terrible his first year, he was one of the only guys visibly frustrated with each loss. And we called it "immaturity". Please. Odell does and has always cared more about winning than anything else. There is no conspiracy theory of him dogging this injury for money or anything else. He wants to be out there. As soon as he can realistically be out there, he will be. Of course the dude wants to get paid as much as possible, as soon as possible. But he's done nothing out of the ordinary in that pursuit. He skipped optional team workouts over the summer. Who cares?! If he felt he was in more control of his health training on his own, so be it! He showed up on Day 1 on training camp with no complaints and worked his *** off all August until he got hit low and got hurt. What more do you want from the guy? Just ridiculous Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jlash Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Someone already said it, but Beckham deserves a ridiculous contract regardless of how horrific you guys looked last week. He's been doing since his first game in the league as good if not better than just about everyone else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always has been. And speaking of has been... that's exactly what the Giants are. A bunch of has been's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go_Giants Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 An improvement. I disagree with it of course but at least we have something to talk about. If you wanted to say Eli is just an average QB that is debatable. One of the worst is too extreme. As for has been, the Giants were tied for the 2nd best record in the NFC last year, they can't be that bad this season. I am thinking you and the other Lions fans are just really nervous about this game and trying to convince yourself your going to win by wanting to believe that the Giants suck.

Let me tell ya... we will win this game based off of simple match. We scored 35 against Arizona. You scored 3 against Dallas. Based off of total law of probability, and factoring in time zone changes, Detroit will win..... 85-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Go_Giants Posted September 14, 2017 Share Posted September 14, 2017 Well the Giants did beat the Vikings 41-0 in the NFC Championship game. So who know you maybe you can pull it off. Guess it is a good thing I have Theo Riddick on two of my fantasy football teams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm guessing everyone in Detroit is pitching tents because Golladay had a fluke great game last week. I can't wait until you all need to take cold showers when him and the rest of your offense gets shut down on Monday night. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
