Giants Cowboys Halftime Thoughts

After a slow start, the Giants came roaring back to take a 14-10 lead over Dallas at the half. Good news for Giants fans: Brandon Jacobs is starting to look like himself. Some nice runs so far, both on the inside and outside. He’s not there yet, but he’s starting to look like himself, and [...]

Giants Falcons Halftime Thoughts

For the second game in a row, the Giants pass offense is explosive, as they are winning 17-7 at half. The Giants have to keep up the passing game–it’s working. When Michael Turner got hurt, I think we all breathed a sigh of relief. What we didn’t realize was the impact of the loss of [...]

Giants-Eagles Halftime Thoughts

Is there cash for this clunker? I sure hope so, because the Giants look dreadful in Philly, losing  30-7  at the end of the first half. Defense cannot make a stop, Eli looks frazzled, and it seems like the Eagles know what the Giants are going to do next. Just an awful first half for [...]

Giants-Cardinals Halftime Thoughts

This game really picked up in the second half, as the Giants are winning 14-10. Both teams are starting to show life on offense, and it should be an entertaining second half. The Giants offense has shown some success tonight, especially running the ball, where Brandon Jacobs looks like his old self, scoring a touchdown [...]

Giants Saints Halftime Thoughts

Well, this sucks. The Giants defense looks awful in New Orleans, as the Saints are  34-17 winning at halftime. The struggle  is mainly due to a lack of pressure on Drew Brees. Give him that much time, he’s going to pick you apart. The Giants offense hasn’t looked terrible, but they haven’t had a lot of time, as [...]

Giants Chiefs Halftime Thoughts

The Giants are overcoming turnovers to play a pretty good half, as they are beating the Chiefs 17-3 at the end of 1st half. Steve Smith has two TDs, and Eli Manning has looked sharp. Mario Manningham has had a rough half, bobbling three balls, including one that led to an interception. The Giants defense [...]

Giants Bucs Halftime Thoughts

The Giants are dominating the Bucs, on the offensive and defensive sides of the ball, as they are leading 14-0 in Tampa . The run game has vastly improved, with Brandon Jacobs running for  65 yards and a TD, and Ahmad Bradshaw adding  70 on the ground. Eli has been efficient and impressive, going  9-17  [...]

Giants Cowboys Halftime Thoughts

The new, gigantic stadium hasn’t swallowed up the Giants yet,  as they lead the Cowboys 20-17 at the end of the first half in Dallas. Eli Manning has been sharp, going 11-18, 149 yards and a touchdown . But, it’s been the turnovers that has the Giants on top. Rookie Bruce Johnson returned an interception [...]

Giants Redskins Halftime Thoughts

The Giants offense looked crisp and smooth as they have a 17-7 at the end of the half. Eli Manning was sharp going  12-16, 138 yards and a touchdown. The running game has been good, not great, but they are establishing a tempo. The offense held the ball for a long time–one of my keys–and [...]

Giants Patriots Halftime Thoughts

Sure, the Pats are playing their scrubs, but the Giants looked pretty damn good, as they’re beating the Patriots 24-14 after the first half. Receivers were catching the ball (shocking,I know), Eli and David Carr were sharp.  Eli was 3-3 with 76 yards and a touchdown. Carr was 6-6 for 153 yards and two touchdowns. [...]
