NFL Preseason Week 1 Games Thread

How are the Giants so consistently tough? Eli has proven to be on it when it counts, but the team itself usually starts kind of slow but finishes strong. That's a good organization.

Wrong again. That's the exact opposite of what the Giants do. They start great and fall off in the last 8 games of the season

2007: 6-2 first 8 games. 4-4 last 8
2008: 7-1 first 8 games. 5-3 last 8
2009: 5-3 first 8 games. 3-5 last 8
2010: 6-2 first 8 games. 4-4 last 8
2011: 6-2 first 8 games. 4-4 last 8
2012: 6-2 first 8 games. 4-4 last 8.

They've never started out slow and they don't finish strong.

Thanks Clay!

They seem to ramp it up pretty good for their post season runs. In any case; solid franchise.

The Giants are not going to win many games if they don't straighten out the run defense. Spencer Paysinger, Mark Herzlich, and Keith Rivers are the starting linebackers - and they were awful. The group showed little contain.

Not happy with the Giants offensive line. Two starters were out, but still – They had no push. The Chiefs have a really good offensive line. Power on the lines win games.

Landry Jones made me laugh. On his first snap, runs into the RB in the end zone – drops the ball, and then falls on it for a safety. I am not sure who has the worst backup QBs - the Giants or the Steelers.

The Giants have quality pass rushers and a lot of them. Thus, they always have fresh legs when it counts in the postseason.

Eli really is a clutch player. Case in point, he has an NFL worst 56 interceptions over the last three seasons but has another ring in the middle of it all. Talk about a guy that really knows when to turn it on.

Bills take kickoff back for a TD 13-13 in the 2nd

The league ebbs and flows, but NYC has been pretty consistent for a while now. Coughlin never struck as that awesome of a coach, but the old ****er knows how to get his results.

Good thing they got Doom out of the way.
That Elway knows his shit.

I hope he eventually fires any consultants he may rely on as his big, horsey ego blows out of check. The FAIL will be epic.

Give me the 'slinger with the upside every time. I've reached a point where I just loathe "careful" QB play.
