7-5 Post-Game Thread

Dan is the one who said in the offseason "We got a qb now" referring to Wentz. Yes Dan one that won minimal games and was on the bench most of the year.

In 20 years of ownership how many times did he say that? He obviously doesn’t know shit about QB’s. McNabb, Jeff George, Alex
Smith, Wentz, RGIII, Haskins, etc.

Have we ever had 2 games in a row versus the same team during the regular season (will the Giant games be the first time)?

Wasn’t Curl out some at the beginning too?

We always knew the DL holds the talent on this team, but once the secondary kinda formed this shield of St. Juste, Curl, Forrest, McClain & Fuller, that when everything kinda clicked. Much like the front work in unison to pass rush and stop the run, guys in the back are working together to cover the pass and support the run defense. It is more the sum of parts cause you cover more ground, but they are really working together back there.

Nobody is mentioning Davis' improvement either.

I would say we needed a dominating MLB and CB depth to round out this current D. Re-sign Payne and fix LB and we could be a top D for 3-4 years. Pity we haven't found a QB to leverage the D and all these O weapons. I really want to see what Howell can do so we hopefully don't have to go QB in the draft again, especially with the capital Wentz cost. For now though we have to roll with TH and see where he takes us.

TH can get us into the playoffs, and after that who knows. But this off-season we really have to solidify the QB position and not around an ageing/2nd rate vet. Virtually every other piece is in place.

I love, I mean freakin LOVE, that kind of football ! That kind of W !

Loved the physicality, I love our Oline, no pro-bowlers in there, but the unit has been playing well, better than pff says in my not so educated but not so humble either opinion.

That game was won in the trenches on both sides of the ball for us !

Also loved seeing our receivers making some solid blocks ! McLaurin, Brown and Samuel all had very good blocks on key runs !

I think this game highlighted the strengths and weaknesses of that defense: our DL is awesome, I think our secondary is young and promising, but our LB squad sucks, even with an improved Jamin Davis, and it showed with how easily they ran it on us, especially outside the box, we lack speed at LB.

I also find interesting how this coaching staff has been doing a good job rotating injured-ish Olinemen. Lucas and Cosmi at RT for a few weeks, Turner and Charles at RG when the former is a bit banged up. It's quite rare to see some sort of established rotation at OL, and it's been working quite well.

BRob with his 1st game ball, congratulations!!

I don't think I've felt such an emotional turn around in one season with this team. Early this season I was as down and emotionally detached from this team as I had ever been since starting rooting for them, and now, even knowing we're not legit contenders, I love those guys, players, coaches, what they show on the field, who a lot of them seem to be as human beings... How do you not love this team right now ?

PS: sorry for the posting spree, just finish watching the game and I'm as pumped as if I had watched it live.

It’s a playoff defense but we don’t have a playoff QB. Like Heineke but he won’t win throwing for 140 yards in the playoffs

Mark Brunnel 2005 playoff game vs tampa - 8/15 for 41 yards (25 after 2 sacks for -16 yards) 0 td, 1 int... also 4 rushes for 6 yards

we won that game.

Alex Smith was good. even with the exploded leg he was 11-7. We're just snakebit. Before that Dan's biggest mistake was not attempting to get Drew Brees. Before that letting Trent Green walk.

And drafting a bunch of guys that never panned out (Patrick Ramsey was a Snyder pick, and RGIII was too). Kirk was/is good, but he never had any intention of staying here, despite what he may have said to the press.

Wish we had got Roquan Smith
