Giants Win!
Giants just barely avoided a replay of almost all of last year's games as they held off Dallas 20-19 when Dallas ran out of time before they could take a shot at a field goal. This was one of those Giant/Dallas games that no one can really feel too good about afterward. However; the rookies who did dress and play were all impressive, even though Sterling had a botch or two to go along with his TD and big grabs. Donnell and the resurgent Victor Cruz scored the other two TD's. The rent-a-kicker missed an extra point, and the Giants got too conservative at times.
Having said that, the OL, which I have gone off on for the past few years, looked good in the 4th quater and it's something they can maybe build on, though they did also have a few penalties and bad plays before that. The DL looks like it will be able to stop the run, but the LB's sure look susceptible to the short pass and TE's. Perhaps when Darian Thompson returns as a starter he can get them squared away on those plays.
Still, a HUGE WIN, and a great way for Coach McAdoo to start his tenure. First Giant coach ever to win in Dallas in his first game.

A number of positives can be taken. perhaps we maybe able to run the ball? Sheppard looked impressive, also need e to see Cruz contribute. Would have liked to see more pressure from the D but a W is a W!
It's a win over Dallas and that's awesome!!
Yay.
Goodson?

Norman got into a fight with his own teammate last night. What a piece of shit.
1-0 in Dallas is just fine in my book. A division game on the road is a good game to win, period.
The defense was doing everything we hated under Fewell. Where are the interesting blitzes? By that I do NOT mean sending DRC. He is in the wrong role as a blitzer. Send Collins or Berhe and roll DRC in coverage instead. Bad clock management at the end of both halves. A game most thought would come easy was left to the mercy of chance.

They were trying to make the rush with 4 work and didn't adjust when it wasn't. On the other hand, we didn't get gashed by the run which drove me crazy under Fewell.
