You're right though, he should have thrown a higher percentage pass. My problem with KG is his predictability. Rarely do I see a traditional I-formation, which is what we should be running more often, given our rushing ability. If I see one more shotgun, handoff to BJ or AB, I will vomit, especially on our own 2!! Use the run to set up a playaction or a flea flicker, have not seen one of those since Collins/Barber. You're right Sec. 128, he does want a run n' shoot offense, but that never won a Super Bowl. KG is on thin ice in my book!CE718noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-34826216560643007662009-10-27T20:55:01.243-04:002009-10-27T20:55:01.243-04:00I agree with GoGo, this doesn't seem like Coug...I agree with GoGo, this doesn't seem like Coughlin's team right now. Maybe Eli has too much control, I dunno, but I want them to return to being a dominant running team. whether this is Gilbrides fault I dunno, but lets pound the ballAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-38672875794684696302009-10-27T20:52:35.314-04:002009-10-27T20:52:35.314-04:00Gogolacking says

It doesn't seem like his team right now, for whatever reason. They're not crisp.<br />I want to see Canty and Ross back on the field. Personally i don't expect Boley to be back from a knee. This is a division game, win them and your in the playoffs. <br />The Eagles looked very much like the Cardinals, lots of pressure via the blitz, and a deep threat offense. <br />When I watch an Andy Reid team, I think that he has 3 or 4 plays that he knows will work, and its just a matter of setting them up and executing. When I see us, I think we have 1 or 2 such plays.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-63506994967858829172009-10-27T20:02:59.179-04:002009-10-27T20:02:59.179-04:00Thanks for the shout out Ern!

Now how much of that is KGs fault and how much is Manning's fault I don't know.<br /><br />It definitely seems to me that the Giants are throwing the ball more than they did last year. I wonder if the recent success of Smith, Manningham, and Nicks is the reason?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6389921495587729314.post-63231950301430600152009-10-27T17:22:16.715-04:002009-10-27T17:22:16.715-04:00It's good to see your readers are paying atten...It's good to see your readers are paying attention, even if Gilbride isn't. He clearly learned nothing from last year's playoff debacle. <br /><br />A significant part of him-- the part Buddy Ryan tried to slug-- wants to run the Houston run n' shoot. <br /><br />It's not automatic that they'd win with better balance, but it's a lot more likely.Sec. 128noreply@blogger.com
