When Leslie Frazier is running your team...it's run the damn ball then I guess if you're wide open we can think about chucking it downfield unless your last name is harvin then we can throw to you ...after we hand you the ball a few times

That's it though. He has a lot of the same skillset as Percy did, why not use him the same way?

Lamborghini Percy has better hands and runs superior routes. Patterson is super raw and Minny hoped Greg Jennings would show him a thing or two but obv not working

Knock, knock.
Who's there.
Owen.
Owen who?
OWEN SEVEN MY ASS!
That felt great. I have been smiling ever since the game ended. I feel like the giants have a real shot at making this season worthwhile. Obviously not the playoffs, but a 7-9 season would make us giants fans forget about that terrible start. Our schedule is a lot easier from here on out. We had the broncos, and chiefs already. Now it's down to the nfc east teams, detroit, raiders, chargers. I could see us making this respectable.

Nah, not just that man. The giants have been getting better believe it or not. The last 4 weeks they were in each game until the 4th quarter but just didn't get it done.

Last 4 weeks
Forte 19 attempts for 67 yards
Petterson 13 attempts 28 yards
mccoy 20 attempts for 47 yards
Charles 18 attempts for 65 yards

..... Fucking incredible. I don't think a 6-3 finish is totally unreasonable

My Raiders got a better chance at 7-9

You didn't watch that Cowboys/Eagles game did you? 7-9 could win the NFC East. They're terrible.

Still think the Raiders have a shot, but that's because the rest of the AFC is terrible. Pittsburgh got much better after their bye, hoping Baltimore figures some stuff out too.

They are figuring out that the Flacco contract was a bad idea and that they are going to have a bad time

Its 3 years 62 million, but nice try slick. Plus it would still cost them more to get out of the deal at that point. They would have to either cut him or start moving money around just to keep their heads above water, but either way they are going to eventually have to keep paying that fucking bonus.

makes the Eli or matt ryan contract look like a bargain

Oh, okay. This according to PFT:

The cap numbers are $6.8 million in 2013, $14.8 million in 2014, $14.55 million in 2015, $28.55 million in 2016, $31.15 million in 2017, and $24.75 million in 2018.

There are problem is the signing bonus was asinine as you say, so cutting him is next to impossible. This screams renegotiate imo, there's no possible way he gets that money in 2016

Giants renegotiated Eli's contract several times to make room for cap. This year I believe we paid him for all of the years we delayed it. The Ravens will do the same, i'm sure.

Freeman has a concussion, Ponder may start.
Weeden plays like he has a concussion, Campbell will start.
