indigi posted:look, I hate the Cowboys and the Redskins. who doesn't. but Kirk Cousins, despite beating the Eagles yesterday, isn't anything. certainly nothing to get upset about. let him enjoy his 15 minutes before he becomes a perennial journeyman backup, switching teams every other offseason. Tony Romo proved to be a fun punching bag to start his career, and even when we play the Cowboys now (assuming he's healthy) I can respect him for dragging that garbage team to relevance from 2008-2013 by himself, sacrificing his body in the process. while I wish them nothing but losses, there are players who are likeable on each team. I can enjoy watching a Dez Bryant highlight, or a DeAngelo Hall picking off Cutler four times in one game.

If the Cowboys are smart, they'll sit Romo until he's truly healthy instead of rushing him back and hurting him more. Romo is still better than Dak. However Dak seems better at taking care of the ball, so I hope the Boys rush Romo back and ruin everything

TyroneGoldstein posted:I honestly don't know what to think of the Giants this year. The offense should have been more high powered at this point and the defense should have been a bit more stout considering the money they spent. I'm just kind of meh about it all. Giants offense would be a lot better if we had tackles worth a poo poo, pretty much all the problems stem from that defense has been okay, but they really need to start generating turnovers. We have two whole interceptions, both on Rodgers (lol) by noted bust pickup Janoris jenkins, who's actually been pretty drat good. Febreeze fucked around with this message at 00:34 on Oct 20, 2016 |

Doltos posted:Giants pass blocking is still stellar it's that the run blocking is dirty aids water. Giants have no run game to speak of both in the RBs and the blocking so there's zero clock control. Giants defense has been incredible for how much time they're stuck on the field each game. How can you watch the tackles we have and think we're good at pass blocking? I mean at one point against the Ravens Flowers basically let Suggs walk right into Manning so easily Suggs tore his bicep out of surprise. I don't think it's a coincidence that the 3 teams we've beaten have been the 3 teams with the inferior d-lines. Dallas can't rush the passer. Saints defense is terrible. Vikings and Skins have good to great D-lines, and so does the Packers, who we should have passed all over but Eli was forcing errant passes because he was instantly swarmed. The Run blocking is rear end, no argument there, but we do not have good pass blocking, certainly not stellar pass blocking

blue squares posted:How much longer will Eli keep playing? What is his current contract looking like? Are Giants fans beginning to wonder about planning for his replacement? I know Cowboys fans have been anxious about life after Romo for a few years now. We got absurdly lucky with Dak. unless he really falls apart I think we get another 2 years out of him minimum for sure. I imagine the Giants are really going to start considering finding his replacement sometime in those next two seasons. It's probably not Nassib. We might use him for trade bait or just let him walk. I see them drafting someone in the second round at some point in the subsequent two seasons. I'm worried about his mental ability more than physical. He still has the arm. He's overall a very healthy guy who takes hits the right way. But he's not the unflappable machine he was around 2011 when our line sucked. He's clearly affected by pressure now and has been since 2013. He needs protection. I'm not ready to give up on Flowers yet but my god please find something better than Marshall Newhouse. The Giants are likely headed (or have very much already reached) a true decade of spectacular failure. The other teams in the division have found themselves in some fashion. Dallas is in good hands likely with Dak and Stephen Jones holding more control instead of Jerry. The Eagles might have found one of the next great QBs (still too early, but promising returns). The Skins, kind of an unknown, but Gruden seems to have the support of the owner now and they feel more competent than anyone wants to give them credit for being after so long in the dumpster. The Giants are close to the end of the Eli era, they ended the Coughlin era, and the great unknown is looming. They need to get Eli whatever he needs to make his final years count.

Daltos for a man who trusts the eye test more than most of TFF I'm starting to wonder if you've actually watched the Giants tackles attempt to play football, you're normally a champion of how FO and PFF don't tell nearly the whole story

My favorite PFF stat was two weeks in a row of Eli Manning Eli had a terrible game the first week, mediocre completion %, like 1 TD 1INT, nothing to write home about. PFF said "He was actually better than average!" and gave him a top 10 grade. The following week Eli lit up the other team for like 3 TDs and better numbers all across the board and PFF gave him a negative grade based on the most arbitrary poo poo you've ever heard like throwing dinky passes on 2nd down. PFF is just terrible. FO is okay, but only when it comes to certain stats.

So this division has Jerry Jones, Dan Snyder, and John Mara in it not only are we the best division, we are the most blatantly evil. of course the only owner with a relatively clean record is Lurie, and the Eagles have no championships, so maybe being evil pays off

Hell, most of 2014 was the Offensive Line and Murray getting all the love anyway.

NattyBo posted:True, true, but the end of that season was so tragic I kind of blocked it out. For the record I am totally on your side in the Cousins debate. He has made a couple of hilarious mistakes and had a really INT happy start to his career so nobody gives him credit anymore. I think he's good and underappreciated. But nobody is going to notice until he beats good teams consistently. The only good team he's beaten so far is the Eagles, and it's still kind of tough to tell how good the Eagles are, so while I think Cousins is good it's kind of hard for me or anyone to really trust him yet.

As a outside source who hates both teams with a fiery passion, and delighted in seeing them both lose to his team... The Cowboys are obviously better than the Eagles and it's hilarious anyone can argue otherwise. Especially at this point in the season. The Cowboys look like genuine contenders and have possibly the most stable offense in the entire conference. Their ball control offense of running and safe passing (Dak is way safer with the ball than Romo is) helps hide the deficiencies on defense by giving the defenders time to rest. Jason garrett is still a stooge but he's acceptable. When the Giants beat the Cowboys it was week 1, the two rookies hadn't yet come into their own yet and they look so much better now, and the Giants barely squeaked it out, thanks in part to that guy on the Cowboys who didn't go out of bounds on the possible game winning drive. I think this current Cowboys team probably clobbers the current Giants. I don't think you can call the Eagles the better team with a straight face. The Cowboys are the clear frontrunner, and the other 3 teams are about equal.
