The offense was playing from behind all game, that means Eli Manning has to take some chances. We were down 16-0 right before the half when Eli Manning lead a good drive and scored a Touchdown, the Giants would get the ball in the 2nd half. But, the defense let a 50+ yard TD to Desean Jackson making it 23-7. This means Eli Manning had to take a chance and it was a interception. The defense let up another touchdown 30-7. Jacobs never really got the running game going, neither did Bradshaw who had 1 touchdown. We were without Mario Manningham which I thought hurt us in the long run. But we must remember that Eli Manning's foot is still bothering him, and Passing is all about footwork.
The defense let points on the board to easy. I laughed when Weaver the FB for the eagles out ran the Safety C.C Brown. Many people are now saying C.C stands for Can't Cover. The eagles ran on us, passed on us. And did what our offense should havec done. The Eagles offense looked horrendous against the Redskins who have faster Linebackers than the Giants and a healthy secondary. Yet the Giants were horrendous against the Eagles. This game really showed how injuries hurt a team, and how you need fast players on your team. We were playing behind the whole game and I think that Tom Coughlin will fix this. But we can't blame it all on the players as Bill Sheridan has been calling Zone Blitzes when we know that our strength is man to man. C.C Brown should not be in any kind of coverage plays, only on Safety Blitzes. I think we should look for a Safety in Free Agency or start Aaron Rouse, or bring a Safety from the practice squad. I forgot his name but Tom Coughlin liked him a lot.
Later I will put up my predictions for the season. And predictions against San Diego Chargers.
