Going into the game, I knew the Giants defensive backs couldn’t cover the Eagles wide receivers but I didn’t know the Eagles defensive backs couildn’t cover the Giants wide receivers.
Chances are the Eagles and Giants are going to be having high scoring games from now on with all of the weapons both teams have on the roster.
Yes we must give Sheldon Brown credit for getting his hands on another football and taking it back for a score.
Still I was disappointed in the play of the secondary which I thought would do a much better job than giving up 38 points and 500 yards.
The tackling was ridiculous and it almost cost them the game. The Birds need to go back over the fundamentals of tackling this week.
“We didn’t get the guys down on the ground,” Eagles coach Andy Reid said. “We got to wrap up. We got to keep our heads up. . . . Fundamentals.”
It could have been much worse if the Giants hadn’t made so many bone-headed moves.
Think about the drops by Hakeem Nicks, and the failures of Mario Manningham to get his feet down in bounds.
Eil Manning made a bone-headed move when failed to slide.
I was troubled by the miscommunications which resulted in them leaving some receivers alone.
The defensive line was inconsistent and too many times Eli Manning was standing back there looking around.
it’s good thing the Birds were putting all those points on the board.
The pass defense must improve in a major way. If they play the way they’re capable of this team has a chance to do something speical.
There’s no reason for giving up all of those points and yardage to the Giants because their offense isn’t that good.
