    That girly scream from JPP didn't sound good

    Followed by a, "Ohh God". :(

    This is last year all over again.

    Christ. He's gone.

    Stafford is throwing for 5000 yards again this season.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,495 ✭✭✭✭Billy86


    I was waiting for that holding flag to be defensive pass interference.

    And I was ready to put my foot through the telly as well.

    Thank Christ it wasn't, not in terms of the Lions winning/losing, just because it's the most embarrassingly one sided rule in any sport I watch regularly.


    Holy jaysus, Megaton! Good play by Stafford but the commentator really shouldn't be trying to make out that it was all about him in that playy. That was an incredible catch to keep in bounds with.

    nice play by Stafford

    That was pretty sweet from Stafford and Megatron...

    Sickening to watch from a Giants perspective, though.

    Can we bring on out second stringers now, please?

    Lions are probably safe doing so, tbh.

    Megatron isn't human. I know the first TD had him in acres of space but we have seen teams hang guys off him and he goes up and get the ball.

    Oh sweet jeebus

    21 fantasy points for Megatron after a few mins. Ridiculous!

    Got stafford and megatron on mine, not doing to bad at all


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    Playing with Megatron is like having a cheat mode on


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ




  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    Sigh


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    I don't know why I'm surprised as I was expecting us to be **** but this is awful


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 23,495 ✭✭✭✭Billy86


    Punts is almost blocked, gets only 16 yards.

    Wow. Early in game 1 sure, but the Giants are looking comically bad in literally every single possible area so far.


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,477 ✭✭✭✭Knex*


    This hurts.


  • Registered Users Posts: 10,364 ✭✭✭✭Kylo Ren


    Who's going top three in the draft next year?

    The worst thing is that it is not a surprise in any way

    2 o-linemen and a QB wouldn't go astray


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    Poor from Megatron


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,477 ✭✭✭✭Knex*


    We just don't have the players. Beckham being injured as well is a real blow, as Jernigan is not an outside receiver.

    We have so many question marks, its ridiculous.


  • Registered Users Posts: 7,317 ✭✭✭HigginsJ


    Woo Hoo we get a stop :)

    Despite the two sba and mrs in them, I still think you guys made a mistake in doing the Rivers/Eli trade. Made sense at the time with him being Peyton brother, but talking more in hindsight (and as a big Rivers fan).


  • Registered Users Posts: 22,477 ✭✭✭✭Knex*


    So will we risk a punt again, or should we just get Eli to chuck it deep to one of their DB's, and cover the INT runback?

    Sarcasm.

    Rivers is great but 2 SB's you would do that trade every day of the week, it's a no brainer

    Not a bad strategy idea
