Shockwave Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 Props to the defense so far. Playing stout against a talented offense. Be nice if the offense gave them a break.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y*so*blu Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 An aggressive long bomb for a touchdown? That can't be the Giants out there. Can't help rooting for Daniel Jones; he hasn't been the problem this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y*so*blu Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) 2nd Quarter: We're at midfield. Great play action to Golladay for 23 yards. Judge needs to realize we're in 4-down territory here; he doesn't and we go for a field goal on 4th and 1, which misses. Saints' next drive stalls with an ankle injury to Tony Jones Jr. and a pass breakup by Jackson. They go for an ill-advised 58 yard field goal which also misses. Still a scoreless game. Giants ROAR back with a huge touchdown pass to John Ross! He lost the ball and fell on it when he was already across the plane so that's six for us, either way. XP is good. Saints offense finally gets off the blocks now; good throw by Winston extends their drive into the red zone. Now a short touchdown throw to Juwan Johnson. Tie game to end the half, and this one could go either way. Actually there are 30 seconds left and the Giants try to do something with them, amazingly, but a Hail Mary attempt by Jones is short and picked off. At least he tried.

The playcalling isn't there either. Just mindless runs up the middle into the teeth of the defense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y*so*blu Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 3rd Quarter: Bradberry gets cooked on a long bomb to Marquez Callaway to start the half. I loved the guy last year but he is just too slow. Absolutely inexcusable touchdown run by Taysom Hill; four or five Giants should have tackled him and didn't. Worst we've looked all game, 14-7 Saints. At least our offense answers aggressively; passes to Golladay and Rudolph allow us to zip right downfield but HOT GARBAGE playcalling by Garrett kills it from there and we take a field goal. 14-10. This guy needs to be fired, yesterday. A Saints TD is negated by a hold on Williams. Now they're backed up and Hill (?) throws a late floater that is intercepted by Bradberry. Pick a quarterback. Giants can't do much thanks to an Engram drop on 3rd & 2. Jackson goes down on the Saints' next drive. Quarter ends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

y*so*blu Posted October 3, 2021 Share Posted October 3, 2021 (edited) 4th Quarter: Saints are knocking us around with the run, exactly what we should be doing to them really. Long drive ends with another easy TD run by Hill. 21-10 Saints and the defense looks defeated. That's what happens when you go in expecting to lose. Next drive doesn't go quite how we want so of course it's time to punt, even though we're down two scores with 9 minutes to go. Saints' next drive gets too cute and peters out. Once again, pick a quarterback. Jones takes advantage with a touchdown pass to Barkley down the seam. DJ keeps it for a 2-point conversion and now it's 21-18, which at least makes this interesting with 7 minutes left. Saints short out but get off a good punt and Daniel will have it with 3 minutes left and both timeouts. Drive is on. Kenny snags one, bounces off Jenkins and takes us to their 30. Another bad running call on 3rd down stops us there and Gano has to tie it with a 48 yard kick. 32 seconds on the clock and Saints can't do anything with 'em. Yeah, I'm shocked too. We're going to overtime. Edited October 3, 2021 by y*so*blu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
