Look at the play again. Gamble was leaping to get position. Wasn't as bad as it looked.

LoL i got to work this morning and my boss is a BIG giants fan and he gave me a card that said get well soon he said give this to chris gamble for me

[capfolly]

He was off-balance. hard to make a tackle with neither foot on the ground.

[bleys]

yeah, Gamble wasn't even in position to make an effective tackle.. Not even close with Bradshaw running full speed...

[electric_blue_it]

Yeah really wasn't as bad as ESPN is making it out to be.

[Cat'sGrowl]

It really wasn't.

Chris was coming off a guy and only had one leg set.

Ignore espn and their beloved NFC "Least"

[SMACKDAB]

BULLSHIT! Quit making excuses....he got trucked, I said it last night, and I'll say it till the day I die.

I don't care if he just came out of the little boy's room, pulling his drawers up.....he got trucked. You play football, I don't wanna hear this "he wasn't set" crap!!!

Bradshaw was 20 yards away when the play began....so if he couldn't prepare by then......I mean really...come on. Was off balance, wasn't ready????

Neither was I then if that's the case.

:ihih:

[ncguy2184]

yeah i just seen the replay

[Seamonk]

didn't help that Bradshaw ran over godfrey before him too. No one looked to really be trying to lay the wood.

so your boss is a douchebag..you probably already knew that

Gamble looked like Gamble. A step late to every play...nothing new.

[zebrainz]

Godfrey looked to be more concerned with stripping the ball inside the 10 yard line than trying to make a tackle. The Giants had an excellent play call and execution against the front seven on that play, they all got whooped before it made it into the secondary. It was a cross block/trap that took out the OLB responsible for that gap.

Meeks has been preaching his ball stripping. It didn't seem to work too well in the game, and I think he has some re-teaching to do about going for the tackle first when a play nears the goal line. If you watch the replay, Godfrey goes for a half strip/half tackle, Gamble is coming off a block trying to make a diving tackle and gets trucked and then Harris is coming up with body language to go for another strip at the 2 yard line. Once Gamble misses, you can see Harris go into "pure tackle" mode, but it is too late and he doesn't even touch him until he's in the end zone. If he's teaching them to strip instead of tackle at the two yard line it's inexcusable in my book, but I think it's just a case of players learning a new system. Still, I think it would be understood that the priority should shift to stopping the runner first as a player approaches the end zone.

Naw he's cool i give him a hard time too i go to his house to watch the games and last year we made a bet when the panthers played the giants if the panthers won he would have to go to work wearing a panthers jersey and hat and brag about how good they were butttttttt they lost so i had to wear the giants clothes

oh yeah theres still pictures up of me all over the dealership of me wearing that stuff
