Giants beat the Ravens in preseason action
Here’s a good overview of the game, starting with Feely’s game winning field goal. However, the news isn’t exactly good news:
The offense, led by quarterback Eli Manning (4-for-7, 74 yards), looked out of sync against the Ravens’ first-team defense. And the defense looked awful against the Ravens’ first-team offense and worse, according to Coughlin, it was “soft” up front.
We expect the Ravens defense to an OK job even if we have high hopes for our offense. But we need our defense to make their offense look pathetic. Here’s a description of the Ravens’ first drive, which they call perfect.
While even Boller went 12 for 18, the real concern is the Giants not stopping the run. Jamal lewis and Musa Smith did just fine against the Giants.
Of course, we do have somthing to be happy about. Everyone who was healthy before the game was healthy after the game.
