[/quote] He's the tallest corner on the team at 6'2". Could stand to add 5lbs or so though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sois Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Good: Sims Dalton AJ Defense Adam Jones Whitworth Bad: I missed the second half, but I "recorded" it. However, the ass whooping was so bad, they didn't show the 4th quarter and switched over to Cowboys/Eagles coverage.

Cat Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 I think BJGE gets a bad rap. He usually makes a little something out of nothing. Run blocking sucks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

|High School Harry| Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Unsung Hero Center Trevor Robinson. Saw his name on the Jumbotron during the intros and thought "ohhh shiii..." Glaring stat of the game: Womanning... hit eight times Andy... once And no sacks and not ints. Of course there were others but what a fantastic if unseen job from Robinson Uber props.

An undrafted unheralded rookie who had never played center. Starting albeit cause of injury for an NFL team. And I'm assuming doing a good job.

He usually makes a little something out of nothing. Run blocking sucks. [/quote] No matter the blocking, at the end of the day, BJGE isnt the type of running back that is a playmaker that could break like a 50 yard TD run. Not that he has to be to have a successful NFL career, but without that ability he should only be a RBBC. Need a playmaker getting snaps at RB.

The Giants have some solid players inside, and they were able to run it pretty well between the tackles and Andy wasn't rushed today. He's been a nice find, for sure. .

The Bengals need to learn that they can play like yesterday EVERY week. It seems the coaches don't trust the players can perform an aggressive scheme play in and play out.

Having him in the rotation helps Peko and Atkins fresh. I have seen some improvement from Still in anchoring vs. the run, but he's not in Sims' area code there. I like the potential of both Still and Thompson, but having a vet like Sims out there makes a significant difference, IMO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what was so frustrating in some of the recent losses...they got up on a team early then curl into the fetal position trying not to lose by being so conservative. Yesterday they kept their foot on the gas on both sides of the ball with an early lead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sois Posted November 12, 2012 Report Share Posted November 12, 2012 Have yall ever used the NFL shortcuts? You can blast through a game in 30 mins. Pat and the DL played awesome. Rey and Burf were both great. One thing that stuck out in run defense... Burfict is so much faster reacting to a handoff than Rey. It seems that it's at least a .5 second difference from where Burfict attacks the hole versus Rey. Watch 6.30 of the 3rd quarter for example. Rey is flat footed watching while Burfict is already in the hole. Anyway, both played great, but I just wanted to say how awesome Burfict's instincts were.

Dunlap, Geathers, and Gillberry finally out-performed the guy lined up across from them more snaps than not. I hope they can play with this tempo for the rest of the season.
