NFL-Giants: NY Giants football news

Last year I whined a lot about how teams went over the middle at will on the Giants. Not so when teams play Ray Lewis and Baltimore:

By the way, Lewis is 35 and he credits martial arts for keeping his body athletic – he actually says train for life rather than football and for him that means martial arts cause it teaches your body to move in all different directions.

If he can stay healthy for a full NFL season while still scaring the crap out of anyone asked to go over the middle maybe there’s something to this martial arts stuff.

But now the big question: Will the Giants defense learn to punish people who go over the middle?

Here’s the transcript. Here’s the video. I like the comments a lot. Talks about Sintim at SAM, Kiwi staying at end, that the giants defense wont change much, etc.

The Giants are still 1st in the NFC East but they sure didn’t play like a first place team. The defense got mauled – the Browns never even had to punt! The offense went turnover happy (3 interceptions from Manning). That’s a losing recipe every single time.

So this season’s undefeated record is gone. The road win streak going back to last season is gone. The offense that protects the football is gone. The stingy defense is gone. All wiped out by the 1-win Browns team that we Giants fans have to hope are not as bad as they’ve looked all season. Well until tonight when they looked like an actual NFL team while the Giants looked anything but.

I remember saying after the first couple of losses last year that I don’t mind too much when the Giants lose. Teams lose games and I understand that. But as a Giants fan I need my defense to at least show up and try to beat the other guys. Our defense was painful to watch they sucked so bad.
