And if our first string offense can’t score a TD against their scrubs then they should give us the 1st overall pick next year so we can get any QB we want. They are trying to psych us out. They want us to have a let down. I wouldn't be shocked if some starters play especially on defense. Mac Jones has had issues so far. Are they trying to protect his image vs our Dline? Bill is notorious for not playing his starters. No one dares question him, for he’s got more chips than any franchise. Take nothing from this game outside of pure entertainment. Analyzing vanilla schemes is right up there with watching paint dry. |

Hell, if our 1st string offense moves the chains and scores a TD convincingly, hand us the Lombardi. And if our first string offense can’t score a TD against their scrubs then they should give us the 1st overall pick next year so we can get any QB we want. I want them to score to on the first drive. In reality I would like to here from coach or QB guys that watch it wether Jones is going to the right place with the ball on said plays, where he and the WRs are on being in-sync that is paramount in this offense, also OL how they progressing especially the interior. even against the 2s this work matters more about doing the right things at the right times. If the timing is off thats ok as long as the rest of the operation is working like going to the right place with the ball based on coverage and leverage. |

You snorkel with sharks?
Did you not see Jaws?
When you live in a tropical climate there isn't much choice unless you don't go in the ocean lol. I watched shark week to just look at it like everything else there is a chance very slim that one might want try you out try the big chicken leg lol. My problem is a do all this stuff and don't know how to use a go pro and have 0 interest in it. Hopefully you're not around New Smyrna Beach. I think that's their preferred dining spot on the east coast. |

I'm a aways down from there Vero/ Sebastian area I see them and keep distance, I wanna try spear fishing but I think my wife might kill me before a Shark or any other creature does lol, Really some species migrate up and down the coast best to know when they are moving through they are burning energy and feeding so a mistakes happen they take a bite out of something splashing around or even just standing in the waves. |

I don't see a purpose of playing our starters when the opponent sits theirs. Daboll said he wants his guys to play, so I doubt he cares. That's fine, I wouldn't expect more than 2 series for the starters. But if you’re going to play your starters against backups you better look good. Or at least, not totally inept. I don't see the purpose of 3 preseason games. Reduce it to 2, go to 18 games regular season, and add in an additional bye week, expanded rosters by a couple players. That's where it's headed. |

OK, let's get down to brass tacks! This is a big game for the Giants for the simple reason we have a new GM and coach! That's a big deal. Then there are our two top picks that will play in an NFL game for the first time along with other draft picks and walk Ons and FA pickups. Win or lose doesn't matter. So it's a must watch game for Giant fans. For the players, Turk will come knocking on the door! They can hide, but the Turk will find them!

LOL I'm pretty comfortable in the water. I don't go in at dusk and don't go when certain Shark species are coming through and feeding close to shore, I have caught sharks 10 feet from shore and returned them, if you like the water Snorkeling diving what ever people like they need to know and understand they are always there and they are just doing what they were made to do. |

Mike Kafka is calling the plays tonight right?
Should be fun to watch it unfold and how he handles it. Hopefully no giant menus.

Who the hell is going to say no? Unless you’re dead, which is still a weak excuse. I fully expect every fan to tune in at some point. I'd like to really but Idol is on TV.  Darn no Dierks Bentley fans on this board? 😊 |

I think you’re reading way too much into it, they’re not trying to psych us out for a pre season game and I highly doubt they’re protecting Mac’s image. DJ has had “issues”, Dak has had “issues”, Wentz has had “issues”, several QB’s have allegedly had issues. Perhaps Mac has improved so much that they don’t want to risk getting him hurt, ever think of that? They also have 4 of 5 new starters on the O line IIRC so even if they started them, we should still have the upper hand based on experience. If Mac is indeed that bad, think of how much worse his back up is, especially behind a back up O line against our starters. I’m sure they’ll scatter in a few starters but not near as many as us, or at least that’s what’s been implied so far. |

I always look for how our 1's, 2's perform against our opponents. If there's an unfair matchup that must be accounted for.
I didn't mention the 3's because I usually stop paying attention by then.
I want to see flashes on all sides of the ball. Just give me something to feel good about.

and thus as another pro sport year begins, I, here in FL, begin my computer/tv/phone dance with trying to watch every pre and regular season game, maneuvering through a rough sea of blackouts, exclusivity, and regions.
It looks like tonights game might be on nfl network, even for me down here?? hope so. ill be standing by on nfl network, while prepping my pc for an emergency finding of the game....
lo, how I dream of a day where I pay one fair fee for my teams, and can watch all my sports freely, fully, and with glee...
(baseball has been an absolute nightmare with the blackouts and now games streaming across many networks one would never have)

As I understand it everyone will play tonight that is healthy. All three QB's will see time. |
