We've had a great series with giants in our history, dare I say a rivarly?

1996 - We won 27-17 but I was in 2nd grade then and I have no memory until the playoffs, maybe some of your old timers can chime in 

2003 - I do remember this game because it was pretty much the only game that season that we blew anybody out . 37 - 24. Everything went right. 

2005 - Total whoopin', 23 - 0 in our favor. 

2006 - I think Weinke was starting this game, I believe Cam broke his yardage record in 2011(at least I hope he did). As you can imagine the Giants had their way with us. 

2008 - Heartbreaking loss, I think Kemo was out this game, and then we lost Lewis as well? They ran all over us in overtime, that was torture to watch. We were exhausted. The colts game this year gave me flashbacks. 

2009 - Almost inexplicably the Giants looked like crap for their last home game EVER at their old stadium. It was an ass beating. 

2010 - Begining of the end, the origin of the Jeff Davidson facepalm .gif. We somehow led at halftime but this was a total ass beating disaster. 

2012 - National embarrassment, I honestly felt like the media was ready to believe in us and then the entire team laid an egg. Newton's press conference was a disaster(from a PR standpiont). I don't blame Newton for speaking his mind though.

2013 - Giants looked worse than they did in 2009. We had 7 sacks by halftime right? Total assbeating.

Point is, somebody is going to get embarrassed tomorrow. We've had a pretty good series with Giants. Exchanging shameful ass beatings. Even though we won the last time I think it should be our turn to cleanse ourselves of 2010.

Doesn't quite feel like a rivalry to me. We've only played them 3 out of the past 5 years, with no playoff matchups in that span. Seattle feels like more of a rival, since we've consistently played them year after year, plus in the playoffs.

NFC South foes I consider more of a feud than a rivalry.

All I know is, the last time we were in that house we embarrassed them. Thats what they should remember mostly.

Last time Carolina was in NY was 2010, and the Giants won. The games in 2012 and 2013 were in Carolina and the 2009 whooping was the final game in the old stadium.

2010 game was not a 'total disaster'....I thought we played fairly well ...led at half ext...

the 2012 game was a total disaster...a real low point of the Rivera era...and Newton...

From the standpoint of the game itself i guess it wasn't a total disaster but from then on everyone knew Moore wasn't the answer and we were going to have to burn it down to get better.

    • While we're talking a fresh prospect that I happen to be a fan of, might as well get on a soapbox: Point 1 - He is not undersized by any means, his length is far above the mean His wingspan is in like the 85th percentile. An interesting note - his wingspan is 5 inches over Khalil Mack, 2 inches over Will Anderson's.  Only 1/2 inch away from the no-production yet size hyped 6'5 267 Shemar Stewart's. For comp - Ez's is around 83", arm length 34".  For NFL comp, the mean for wingspan is 80" and arms 33.5" at for starting EDGE defenders.  So it's not just my isolated comparisons. Point 2 - He isn't just a flashy "pass rush specialist" His film (and testing) shows elite quickness, hand work, and ability to play with the heads of OTs that normal prospects don't grasp. (see my prior post) Testing wise, one of the fastest 3-cones and short shuttles for an edge in years.  Fastest this year for both -- and those two drills are the ones teams look at for pass rushers, usually very indicative of success.  His quickness is off the charts. He's a guy that played well, showed well to those casually watching and those film-studying.  Then he goes out and tests well to back it up.  Apparently interviews super well.  So, I think it's all about his capacity/potential as a run defender.  That's really what it comes down to.  Can he be a 3-down guy or is he a specialist?  I see a 3-downer, his run defense is better than given credit for. A breakdown Ez vs. the NFL mean Arm Length: 34" vs. 33.5" (over) Wingspan: 83" vs. 80" (over) 3-Cone: 6.94 sec vs. 7.23 (WELL over, 95 percentile) Short Shuttle: 4.19 vs. 4.424 (over) Height: 6'2 1/2 vs. 6'3 (slight under) People look at the height a smidge under 6'3 and take that without considering the rest.   I think with Ez, it all comes down to what teams think his run defense upside is.  All it takes is one team - if they think he can become more that a passing down guy, then he could go high.  But if guys like Nik Bonitto and Haason Reddick can turn into these all-arounders, I don't see why this kid can't either who has higher pedigree and better measurables. Now, I prefer Graham, Walker inside, Will Johnson, Barron, and some others over him, but once we're in this tier outside of the top guys, I find the argument way more compelling for Ez over a Mykel Williams or Shemar Stewart.    
    • Well if we’re bringing this guy with character issues in for a visit why not consider Mike Green at 8!?
