The NY Giants Main Problem

Whoever thinks C.C. Brown is the main person to blame for the New York Giants woes lately is totally not in tuned with what is going on. The main problem that has manifested itself with this team is complacency. It is purely common sense that this is the problem and my first reason is that the Giants had a soft first five weeks excluding the Cowboys who took some time to get in the flow they are in now. When you get complacent you take things for granted and make minor mistakes. When you make those mistakes,  it will cost your team in a big way.

For example last week against the Eagles a simple miscommunication between Corey Webster and C.C. Brown on what coverage was being implemented gave Donovan McNabb a wide open DeSean Jackson to throw to. And in the end they got an easy 6 points to close the half out.

Another situation was when Lesean McCoy broke through the Giants defense for a huge touchdown run. If you notice at the beginning of the play the Giants have only two guys with their hands on the ground. Osi Umenyiora and some other defenders are standing and looking at Antonio Pierce for direction. This took them out of the play since they were not prepared for the play to start.

These have been the types of things that have not haunted the Giants for a while and now they have creeped back in.  Right now they have dug themselves a hole that they know how to get out of. They need to just play the game and not worry about all of the audibles and play calls. They need to use their instincts and ability and play with heart and emotion.

That is what has been reiterated throughout the team this week and I totally agree. This weeks game will be no different from the past few weeks in regards to the competition when the Giants face off against the San Diego Chargers.

I am calling it now, this will be the week that starts the run at the Super Bowl for the New York Football Giants

 The reason I say this is that it is times like these that have brought the Giants together and made them a very dangerous team. Don't forget,  "Talk is cheap play the game".
