Giants-Saints one-liners

This was quite the reality call for the Blue. It knocked and there was no answer. There's no question that the game exposed weaknesses in the injured secondary. But what's more troubling is the passive nature of the defensive scheme. Few blitzes... lots of zones. That's not NY Giant football.
Enjoy it, Saints fans. I have a feeling that this sudden showing of defensive respectability will end nezt year as Gregg Williams puts his name back to the top of the coaching hot-lists. You had better just hope it doesn't dominate all talk in te postseason.
"Giants RB Brandon Jacobs yelled at Saints cheerleaders and later in the game appeared to challenge Saints DT Remi Ayodele to a fight. "
haha yeah Ayodele would pound Brenda into itty bitty failure-flavored loser cookies.
Hey we sucked
But it was the Saints that beat us not the Chiefs or the Raiders
We stumbled we will pick our selves up and get ready for next week
BTW
ED H is the worst offical I have ever seen he sucks
"That's not NY Giant football."
No, it's not. It's SAINTS football. Who f-ing dat, Not the Giants. Black & Gold Superbowl!!!
I blame Tony Romo for all of it. Including Brandon Jacobs' increasingly obnoxious behavior, and Eli reverting to aw shucks McTurnover.
