As a generality though, I really like fantasy talk as long as it actually kinda ties in with real football. NOBODY wants to hear "oh man my team I picked up x player in my league with these rules" and blah blah blah. I can see where the annoyance there comes from.
But talking purely stats as a fantasy tie-in doesn't seem any more harmful than talking about whatever boring off-field stuff is going on. /shrug |

Always get kinda geeked up for the first preseason game despite it not really meaning anything.
The Giants do have a wide open competition at linebacker, though. All 3 starting spots up for grabs with 9 LBs competing for the 3 starting spots and probably 6 or 7 roster spots. |

The Giants seem to wind up having an undrafted rookie make the team every year. I've heard some good things about Etienne Sabino. Fantastic name.

Plax tears his rotator cuff, likely out for the season. Possibly the end of his career.

I still wonder what could have been in 2008 had he not shot himself. Felt like the Giants could have gone for the SB repeat. Giants vs Steelers is a SB I'd love to see one of these years, though 2008 might have been the time for it.

![]() SB Nation had a crazy stat days ago involving Sanchez somehow managed to be ranked dead last for QBs in NFL history in regards to being a starter for 4 years. Basically is the "Ryan Leaf/JaMarcus Russell" for QBs who've managed to last more than 2-3 years as a starter. |

So my assesment was premature
After the initial drive where they gave up 80 yards and a td, it took the cheifs offense 3 quarters to gain another 80 yards Defense had 12 hurry ups and 4 sacks Young wr Parker had a monster game with the backups amd McCown proved he belongs RB Khiry Robinson is someone to watch for, he prolly wont make the active squad so I seemhim getting signed off our practice team Also wr andy tanner Both of these guys will get lost in the depth at both rb and wr and will get signed to other teams |

SEE MY RANT on cable companies ni the 100k thread. Hate every single one of them.
Legit considering getting NFL Game Pass this year. $135 for every reg season game and Redzone? That sounds fantastic. crossrine |

Gonna do my way too early roster prediction. Did this last year and wound up way off. Of course this also assumes they don't get any injuries in preseason which is unrealistic, but whatever:
QB (3): Eli Manning, David Carr, Ryan Nassib RB (4): David Wilson, Andre Brown, Ryan Torain, Michael Cox FB (1): Henry Hynoski WR (5): Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz, Rueben Randle, Louis Murphy, Jerrel Jenigan TE (3): Brandon Myers, Adrien Robinson, Bear Pascoe OL (9): Will Beatty, Kevin Boothe, David Baas, Chris Snee, David Diehl, Justin Pugh, Jim Cordle, James Brewer, Brandon Mosley DE (5): Jason Pierre-Paul, Justin Tuck, Mathias Kiwanuka, Damontre Moore, Adrian Tracy DT (5): Linval Joseph, Cullen Jenkins, Johnathan Hankins, Mike Patterson, Marvin Austin LB (6): Keith Rivers, Dan Connor, Jacquain Williams, Spencer Paysinger, Mark Herzlich, Aaron Curry CB (5): Prince Amukamara, Corey Webster, Jayron Hosley, Aaron Ross, Terrell Thomas S (4): Antrel Rolle, Stevie Brown, Ryan Mundy, Cooper Taylor K (1): Josh Brown P (1): Steve Weatherford LS (1): Zak DeOssie Feels weird only keeping 5 wideouts but I had to make a sacrifice somewhere since the Giants will most likely be carrying a 3rd QB for the first time in several years. They're not cutting Nassib after they traded to early in the 1st round to get him, but I have a hard time seeing them getting rid of Carr and putting the entire season on Nassib's shoulders if Eli gets hurt. I wanted to find room for an extra LB (Etienne Sabino) and an extra CB (Junior Mertile) but I ran out of space since the Giants have a shitload of depth at the D-line and I think they'd like to keep as many as they possibly can. Marvin Austin's inclusion is probably the biggest head scratcher but I can't remember Jerry Reese ever cutting somebody he drafted in the first three rounds without giving him at least three years to prove himself. Hopefully Sabino and Mertile make it to the practice squad. |

Dunno if it's on NFLN. They're showing something else here but that's because I've got it on NBC.

Loved seeing Damontre Moore block that punt. Potential 3rd round steal. Was projected as a top 10 pick as recently as January.

Always a good feeling to win, preseason or not. Nice to see the Manning to Cruz connection has gone nowhere.
Only real negative I saw was the run defense still looking spotty. But it's game 1 of the preseason. Not really worth critiquing anything too much until after game 3. |
