Sorry I've been on this election the past two days, what have players said about Mike?
Nothing publicly that I have seen. I doubt you'll see a quote attached to a name. Again, I'm just guessing or speculating. Smoot could tell you more than me.

About whether or not Mike is losing some of the guys in the locker room. We know Haslett has lost key guys in the locker room, but I don't think there has been a question about Mike and the locker room until now. (basing this off what we had been discussing earlier and some tweets I've been seeing this morning)
Mike better get his shit together and fast.
The "losing the locker room" talk is a bunch of BS. These guys are professionals. They want to play in the NFL, if not here then somewhere else. They're not going to play at 60% or half ass it because MS has pissed them off about some stupid comments after a tough loss. Or because Haslett plays conservative cause he's trying to hide the crappy coverage on the back end. That term is ridiculous. They need to make some adjustments and go out and beat a very beatable Eagles team.

Brandon Banks ruins everything
Speaking of Banks...what the heck was that last play supposed to be. Even RGIII was standing on the field with his arms out saying "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
Or maybe he was saying "KYLE, ARE YOU INSANE?"
I still can't figure out what was supposed to happen...it was a worse-looking play than Zorn's swinging gate. That was just telegraphed. I knew what that play was supposed to look like and so did the Giants...but what was Banks supposed to be doing?
There was half a minute left too...down by only a TD...why now throw the ball down the field a few times? There was no need for a backwards hook and ladder or whatever that was.

They are "supposed" to be professionals, but it very well can happen. These guys are human after all, and have emotions just like anybody else. Money isn't the only driving factor behind their play. I can go through and show you time after time where these guys do things that "professionals" simply don't do.

Was there with a high school friend that was a lifelong Giants fan, and my son who is a Giant fan, but I was hoping the Skins would change his mind in person, the swinging gate cemented his Giants fandom :(
