Eli Manning: Giants need “something to give the team some confidence”
Giants coach Tom Coughlin doesn’t know anything about current events at the moment because he’s avoiding all media.
Coach Coughlin said they would be adding defensive tackle Kenrick Ellis onto the Giants roster, according to NFL.
Cruz began with mostly half-speed straight-line jogging, but also included some cutting.
On Thursday Night Football, the Giants’ defense may have a hard time getting off the field against the Redskins’ running game, and that could limit opportunities for Manning and the offense. Special teams ace Dwayne Harris and rookie Geremy Davis are the options to take Parker’s snaps alongside Odell Beckham Jr. and Rueben Randle.
It probably won’t be Cruz.
“A good thing about a short week is you don’t have a whole lot of time to reflect on the past”, Manning said. “I think we have a good group, and guys are going to keep fighting and keep working to get better”, he said.
While the Cowboys are being forced to make some changes to their lineup, the Eagles look like they might as well. His Giants are 0-2, and Coughlin doesn’t even want to know what’s being said about him and his team.
Vacchiano noted that Manning went 22-of-29 for 262 yards and two touchdowns in the first three quarters and then finished the game 5-of-11 for 30 yards in the fourth quarter.
Spaight sustained a concussion in Washington’s season-opening loss against the Miami Dolphins. The Giants once again made mistakes at the end of the game which led to a loss, but Manning produced a lot better for fantasy owners.
Culliver was suspended for Washington’s Week 2 victory over the Rams for a violation of the NFL’s personal conduct policy. The 27-year-old is in his fifth National Football League season, first with the New York Giants.
Alonso missed the 2014 season with Buffalo after tearing his left ACL. How have those injuries affected the team and how do you think they’ll affect the team specifically against the ‘Skins?
DT Jay Bromley (knee) was limited in Tuesday’s practice.
Things can’t get any worse for Eli Manning in the eyes of the public. It doesn’t help that the Giants do not have a play-making defense really capable of playing through that kind of misfortune. There is a large segment of the fan base that wishes the Giants had just cut ties with the guy and moved on.
The Cowboys traded for the 33-year-old Cassel a few hours after putting Romo on the injured list with a designation to return.
G Geoff Schwartz (illness) took his full practice reps a day after being slowed down by illness. In two games, he made five catches, totaling 43 yards, but dropping the ball was a major problem.
