You're looking for holes in the wrong places.

JC never seemed to have time and the few times he did he went into "freeze up" mode where he just couldnt make himself throw the ball.

What happened to the vertical threat?
Why does Portis look so slow?
Why does Santana look so slow?
Why is the red zone offense still a joke?

I'm glad I am sober. That was a major buzzkill.

Edit just saw.

Yes. Very Disappointing, but.....The world didn't end today, and the sun will come up tomorrow! It's week ONE, hope for MAJOR improvements as we go along.

Who cares what the Giants have, the red zone O was a joke as was the rest of the O.

What's a D fan?

[Bushead]

I think it needs to be said that this was a much closer and better performance than the 2 meetings last year.

No problems with the Oline today. Lots of defensive players had good games.

The skill players on offense pulled another disappearing act.

It's like we have to wait all game just for the light to suddenly turn on when it's too late to come back. I'm just gonna put this one down as a fail all around.

Personally I want to know wth happened to all that supposed "progress" we made in the preseason. Campbell didn't play anything like he did during the final two preseason games, once again our young guys (Davis, Thomas and Kelly) didn't show up, and so far DeAngelo Hall looks overmatched and definitely not worth that 56 mil contract out there.

Heres one also where was mitchell. And why did kelly not play morethan he did? Well unless kelly was hurt and the same with mitchell, then again another stupid game coached by some one who has no idea of what to do or how to coach a nfl game. Also the oline still sucks and will continue to suck till they draft good players.

Agree 100% but i'm still upset very mad our defense needs to be better & our offense needs to hold on to the ball.

BTW, how does one get a dirty jersey on astro turf when there's no dirt?

[insideman]

Does Zorn even know how to use the talent he has? What little it may be.

i think the online played decent, the int was santana's fault. the fumble jason had for a TD was his fault he needs to step up in the pocket. also jason checking to a run on 3rd and 8 with 8 men in the box was horrible. i know it week one and we lost to a good team, but if u want to be a good team u must beat them.

He had plenty of time the whole game. They are the best line in football. He was sacked twice, including the fumble for a touchdown. He should never have held the ball that long. The d was not as good, but take away the fumble for a touchdown and we win. The D only gave up 17 points. JC did not make plays when he had to. Same old offense, no matter who the offensive coordinator.

Zorn has to call quick-hit plays when you play a D-line like the Gmen have
