Giant Receivers Slice Up Chiefs
Posted on 6 Oct 2009 by Mark Reichman.
Who cares if the Giants don’t have the sleek Samurai sword that was Plaxico Buress. They can still stab you with the rusty garden shears (Smith) or the icepick (Manningham) or even just a pencil (Nicks) or letter opener (Moss). Eli Manning’s plantar fascitis notwithstanding, the Giants have to like where they are after devouring another cupcake – this time it was “Straw...

Giants Chow Down on First of Three Cupcakes
Posted on 28 Sep 2009 by Mark Reichman.
A soaking wet Buccaneers fan, his transparent poncho flapping in the monsoon winds, stands alone on the Buccaneer Pirate Ship, completely down trodden and dejected. That's my lasting image from a 24-0 game Sunday in which all Giants fans could relax and enjoy and Tampa fans could hit an emotional rock bottom. What did we really learn about the Giants? THIS looked like the team many expec...

Giants Earn TKO in Dallas Slugfest
Posted on 22 Sep 2009 by Mark Reichman.
Rejoice o ye Giants fans. No, seriously, rejoice. Don't let that Cowboys fan you work with talk to you about luck. Or about Tony Romo having a bad game. Or balls bouncing off players feet for flukey interceptions, or any of that. A slugfest like Sunday's 33-31, last-man-standing victory vs. the Cowboys requires resiliency and determination. It's incredibly valuable for the ...

Hope or Worry? Depends Which Giants Show Up in Dallas
Posted on 19 Sep 2009 by Mark Reichman.
Will the efficient, clock-controlling, big play Giants get off the plane in Dallas? Or will it be the tired, sloppy, Eli-interception-throwing Giants? Both were present in Jersey last Sunday, so who knows. Which Giants show up in Big D could say a lot about the direction of the season. Later in the season, hopes will become expectations if the Giants do well — if they don't, worr...

Giants Show Plenty of Weapons Beating Skins
Posted on 14 Sep 2009 by Mark Reichman.
The Giants can beat you by smashing the running game down your throat. Or with a field-position-controlling D. Or with the occasional flash of Eli brilliance on a pass play to any number of unheralded and unnoticed wideouts. Or failing the above, the Giants can beat you with a big turnover and momentum changing score. Alll of the above skills were on display in the Giants opening weekend vi...

Giants WRs Set to Shine Vs. Washington
Posted on 12 Sep 2009 by Mark Reichman.
The Redskins want to show off their new weapon, monstrous DT Albert Haynesworth. Plus rookie LB Brain Orakpo will be featured stuffing the run. So the Skins cram the box, Brandon Jacobs and company go nowhere, and Eli Manning rolls back and throws to…. Wait a second, just who exactly WILL Eli be throwing to on Sunday? If you read any story about the Giants wide receiving corps this offs...

Umenyiora’s Back; Giants D-Line is Bigger, Badder
Posted on 11 Aug 2009 by Mark Reichman.
Osi is back. The Giants defensive line looks strong and deep; Big Blue hopes will rest on improvement to the unit GM Jerry Reese said “seemed to get worn down” in a sluggish end to the 2008 season. And thus far every report from Giants camp is gushing about the new-look defensive line. Osi Umenyiora, fully recovered from his knee injury, is joined at the end position by Justin Tu...

Giants 2009 Draft Preview
Posted on 25 Apr 2009 by Adam Provost.
The deal that had the Giants getting WR Braylon Edwards from the Browns for their first and third round draft picks appears to have died. From what I've heard on the NFL network, the Browns tried to sweeten the deal by adding Mathius Kiwanuka to the trade, which was not something the Giants wanted to do. Being in a position to get a player of Edwards' caliber after dumping Plaxico Bu...
