Everybody knows that Fassel knows more football than Spags and Tom, Snyder should grab Fassel FAST!

Teetime, true but he should have seen it coming and used more of the clock.
Del 85, Belichick must have thought he would catch the Giants off guard by going for it, but the odds on completing fourth and 13 are much worse than 50-50 especially when your QB has been having a bad day. I do feel that Belichick was concerned about whether he could score that last TD because his offense had so much difficulty during the game, but he had a first down on the seven and his team had been moving the ball well. One less time out and the Giants very well could have run out of time before they scored the winning TD. Would the Pats have gone for it on fourth and goal if it came to that rather than kick a tying field goal? He’d have to after his fourth and long decision earlier.

I know its early but I’m already looking forward to seeing who Reese looks into to improve our roster. We need to replace Butler. These are guys who I’d like Reese to look at.

Maybe we dont sign any of them but I’d be happy with any of these guys.—->

My Giants Free Agent Wish List

Safetyâ€”
Eriik Coleman, UFA, Jets
Mike Doss, UFA, Vikings
Ken Hamlin, UFA, Cowboys
Eugene Wilson, UFA, Patriots

Kickerâ€”
Josh Brown, UFA, Seahawks

Wide Receiverâ€”
Drew Carter, UFA, Panthers

I think Reese would be crazy not to offer him an Assistant HC gig. Give TC a 3 or 4 year deal and write a new contract up for Spags that will make him the heir to the throne. It would be a major loss to lose Spags. More than TC, more than Shockey….it would be devistating.

Paul, Blunders by Belichick? That would have
been a 49-yard FG attempt…at best a 50-50 shot.
He obviously thought he had a better chance than
that with Brady and those receivers.

The Pats last TD came on third down. They
weren’t sure they’d be able to score at all,
and Belichick obviously figured the Giants
could stop a run and call time out themselves.

Paul it was the patriot defense..Belichick’s alter ego which lost the game.They didn’t protect the lead.

The Giants should do whatever they can to keep Spags.

Belichick made two major blunders in the game. First, going for it on fourth and long. Second, leaving too much time on the clock when he scored his go ahead touchdown. His defense was tiring and taped study should have shown him that Eli has been very effective on TD drives late in the fourth quarter. At least one run inside the seven would have eaten up enough clock to stop the Eli miracle.

To paraphrase Cassius Clay on the Eve of his stunning upset of Sonny Liston for the Heavyweight Championship:
“They shook up the World!”
“They shook up the Worrrrrrrlllld!”

Congratulations, G-Men, on a gritty, unforgettable, march to the NFL Champonship!!

See you at SUNY, Albany in July!
