Positives of this Game

SBXVII,

Just curious, why the negativity in this thread. If you don't see any positives you certainly have a ton of threads on the board to choose from. Seriously, we scored 17 points, the fake FG was a thing of beauty, and there were other positives. Yes there were more negatives, um we did lose. I'm over it.

We lost to the Dwarfs by less than 6 in their house. We were more competitive than either game with them last year.

The sky is not falling in. Back to discussing positives in this thread, please.

Sorry to pick everyones positive thread to shit in. Honestly it infuriates me to know we are the better team and found a way to lose the game. We let the Giants dictate the game. Allowed them to play a physical against us. I'll agree the G-mens D-line is awsome but their CB's are suspect. It didn't take me but 2 series to figure out that we would need to get Portis the ball behind the D-line some how cause he was not going to run through them. He had only 2 good runs. 17 points. Please. All last yr we scored less then 20 points and yet again with all the weapons supposedly at our disposal we still can't get over the hump.

I'll agree the fake Kick was a thing of beauty but it's pretty bad we had to resort to it. Every time we got into the red zone I kept saying Here's Cooley's chance...oh wait it's a run. Here's Kelly's chance....oh wait its a run. Here's Mitchell's chance do to his height....oh wait its a run.

I'm glad your over it. I think by Wed. I might be over it. See for me It seems like this town is totally different after a loss and I'm sure I'll feel it for a couple of more days. Not to mention having a family member who is a Dallas fan saying ...."Oh did the Skins lose? Sorry."

I really understand all of that, believe me, I watched the game and was discouraged, thinking the same things and just overall bummed, but this is the positives, and there were some. like i said, there are lots of negative threads, I will walk into work and get lots of crud also. but I like to have a place to come back and say, it had its good points even if few and far between.

The positives yes sorry:

1) The Giants looked better then expected.
2) The Giants had a good run game.
3) The Giants got decent production from their Rookie WR.
4) The Giants D-line is awsome.
5) The Giants scored over 20 points.

Any thing else I'm missing as far as positives?

Positives for me is that you didn't start stupid threads like "Another Vinny Special: DeAngelo Hall"; "When will Snyder wake up"; and "Can we start the countdown to a new QB and coach".

I think there were a lot of positives. Cooley got the ball alot and scored. It was good to see JC hit him in the endzone. ARE is playing where he should be and doing well. The 0-line played well in their first game and should get better. Rogers played very well and didn't seem hampered by his injury. Fletch had 18 tackles and Rocky had one of his better games. AH pushed the pocket, now we have to take better advantage of it. JC made a couple of mistakes but hit a high percentage of his passes. There were a lot of mistakes but I expect them to be corrected.

1.) Portis showed some good speed and cuts
2.) ARE is in the slot- looked good

No INJURIES!

Exactly what I was thinking when I saw this thread.

The only positive is there were no injuries.

1. O-line played well
2. Several passes completed for 15+ yards
3. Receivers ran routes past the 1st down marker on 3rd downs.
(remember how many routes were ran last year a yard short of the 1st down)
4. The D-fense actually produced some to's.
5. There was actually pressure put on an opposing QB
6. The run was kept in check
7. Goal line stands
8. Suisham is 1-1
9. Offense produced points and did move the ball against a great D......(remember the offense should get better...were one year into this offense)
10. Zorn's play calling was better ( at least we aren't as predictable as we were last year)
11. Despite all that went wrong the players didn't give up and still had a chance towards the end.

Honestly, I was pissed off during the game as many of u all were im sure. However, once I reflected on the game I have a decent feel of where this team is headed. I really think by week 6 this team will be a good team and if we don't play down to our opponents level we should be in good shape. The only ? marks for me is dumb penalites which can be fixed and also our DB's---------(which cant be fixed).......
