Canty not playing against Cowboys

According to Ralph V and the Blue Screen, Canty won’t be playing against the Cowboys. He may miss more time. Amazing how quickly a strong position gets thin (now that we’ve lost Alford and Canty needs to miss at least one game).

Fred Robbins’ surgery more serious than I thought

He writes on his blog that he had microfracture surgery on his knee. Ralph Vacchiano says that a full recovery is not guaranteed and that it may take a while. No wonder the Giants went out and signed Canty and Bernard.

Gotta love some of the quotes here. Very interesting interview with the Giants new defensive lineman:

Dude!

Michael Boley, Rocky Bernard, and Chris Canty? Pretty awesome!

Osi Umenyiora, Justin Tuck, Chris Canty, Fred Robbins, Barry Cofield, Rocky Bernard, and Matthia Kiwanuka is pretty awesome because all 7 of those guys are good enough to start somewhere in the NFL.

Canty is the only guy I haven’t blogged about yet. Good ESPN article here (how often does that happen?) on the signing. They say he’ll play DT for the Giants, probably replacing Robbins as a starter.

But I don’t see why he would replace Robbins, the Giants best DT. If anyone cares, Pter King made Haynesworth and Cofield his 2 all-pro defensive tackles this year. Wouldn’t we better off demoting Cofield?

I have to think Canty willl see some time at DE as well because we have 3 guys who play only DT (Robbins, Cofield, Bernard) and 4 full time DTs seems like one too many.

6 years and 42 million makes him the Giants most expensive acqusition yet. Clearly they expect big things from the guy.

Nice video here. Says the Giants have the best offensive line + the best defensive line. That means we’re gonna win some games!
