Those factors include everything the loss of Spags to the Rams with a successor who might not have what it takes to inspire a defense to perform at previous levels, to key losses to injury like Kenny Phillips, Aaron Ross, and Michael Boley, to as previously stated the lack of a sense of urgency now that the position and head coaches feel job security. That job security that comes with success lays the seeds for predictable play calling and a general lack of killer instinct that keeps defenses guessing... causes that split second of hesitation in coverage or blitzing scheme execution. Finally, the Giants have on occasion demonstrated a slowness to adjust to what they didn't anticipate before the game. Sticking with what isn't working in hopes that something magical will happen that suddenly makes it work is not going to win championships. Hope is not a strategy. Contemplation and consideration right up until the final two minute warning results in blowouts. Get hungry again. Coach and play as if you're job is on the line again. Get unpredictable. Take a calculated chance now and then when the time is right. Lose the fear.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3647407325675135492.post-73055022532801243752009-10-23T21:42:39.161-04:002009-10-23T21:42:39.161-04:00Yes I do believe that Coach Coughlin does get out coached,because they were not prepared for the Saints, he did not have the whole team focused for the Saints they where playing like they were not there and the Giants did not make any adjustments you can't look back evey game is different and you could see the Staints were well prepared its sad to say the Gaints are a very predictable team on offense and his offensive coordinator I think has his head in sand when it comes to the RED zone I always said why doesn't he watch other good team in the RED zone I just hope that Coach Coughlin could turn this mess around because I feel that the Giants could be 5-3 at their bye week and after that the schedule doesn;t get any easierDukenoreply@blogger.com
