Stewart out vs Giants, CAP will be involved with Fozzy starting

Its interesting that the Giants cut their starting safety Mayweather today.

I was hoping to see Wegher in action :/

Wish CAP was starting and Fozzy was coming off the bench.

We are a power running team which CAP is better suited for along with his incredible patience and awareness for a rookie. It's the perfect style for the scheme we've been running.

Fozzy is scat back which means they may have a different offensive game plan which I don't like since it's been the same thing for 13 weeks straight.

IMO you'll see CAP get the majority of the carries.

Fozzy as the "starter" is just a veteran/rookie deal.

I think people need to brace themselves.....b/c I think Sunday could hit people in the face with the fact we can't run block (at least consistently).  Add in a slow to the line HB like Tolbert and we likely could find ourselves behind the chains a LOT.

What Stewart has done this year is EXTREMELY underrated.

If that holds true, it put Cam at much greater risk for multiple reasons.  He has to run more and being behind the chains puts him at more risk in the pocket.

Thats why you give CAP the lions share of the carries.  Dude is *quick* to find the hole. He's no speed burner, but he hits the line fast.

that's fine. pass against the league's worst pass defense to set up the run, and let tolbert grind it out with fozzy spelling him double trouble style. try to utilize CAP in the screen game and see if you can take advantage of a shoddy perimeter defense and linebacking corps that will likely blitz to make up for a terrible pass rush.

we'll be alright.

Agreed...

Giants against the run-#16 110 yds per game

Giants against the pass-#32 308 yds per game

Shouldn't be hard to game plan but we'll need to put points on the board early...

Do you guys feel that CAP is the future at the RB position?  I know he was great coming out of college.  He hasn't gotten much play this year because Stew has done a great job.  Can he block?  Is he able to quickly pick up the blitz?  I am excited to new the new guy get some run.  He waited his turn and didn't complain.  Now it's his time to show what he can do to the world!

I agree with you.  I think that while the injury to Stew isn't EVER wanted, we've wanted to see what we have in our rookie all year long and we haven't had a chance to put him out there for fear of breaking the rhythm that our offense was in.  We know what we have in Tolbert and Fozzy, and we don't know what we're gonna get in game action with CAP and I think that's why they are gonna throw him out there and see if he sinks or swims.  Using him heavily now and finding out if he can carry a load will pay dividends in case we lose Stewart at any point in the playoffs.  I think CAP will get 10-15 carries Sunday.
