Giants vs San Fran
I must admit the D-FENSE has come together after all. The frustrations of a fan came out loud and strong after the first two games! Losing to Dallas when a win was well within reach REALLY boils the blood.
The Giants now have a nice winning streak going. 5 and 2 is much better than the 0 and 2 start! We must thank a Giants defense which has come together under Steve Spagnuolo.
The offense was mediocre against San Francisco. They had some problems moving the ball, except when the defense got the ball back for them via interceptions and fumbles. They scored with each take away. That is a GREAT job!
There could have been more if the backs were able to hold onto the ball. Eli Manning was locked in throwing the ball well. The backs had troubles hauling the passes in. Derek Ward, Brandon Jacobs, it did’t matter who the ball was tossed to. It didn’t hurt though since the defense just kept getting the ball back to the offense.
Lawrence Tynes missed the PAT after the first TD which is unacceptable. Tynes came back with 3 PAT’s and 2 field goals. That’s a good comback in my estimation. Antonio Pierce had 2 costly Personal Fouls, but came back with a HUGE interception which allowed the Giants to score again! Osi Umenyiora had a huge sack AND picked up the fumble to score from 75 yards out! BIG play!!
Now it’s off to London for a game against the winless Miami Dolphins. Let’s hope the Giants continue to play the way they have been and don’t have a let down. Remember several years back when an undefeated Bronco team came to Giants stadium to play a BAD Giants team? The Giants handed the Broncos their first loss. We HOPE this does not reverse!!
Wishing BIG BLUE continued best wishes on the other side of the big pond! Keep it up guys, you are finally a complete T E A M!!!!
