Hakeem Nicks out vs Panthers

[nagai]

I must say I'm a little disappointed. When we win I don't want any excuses.

I can see what you mean, but at the same time, I'll take it.

This is reminding me of the playoff game against AZ when boldin was out....

[jasonluckydog]

we had a bad habit in the past making 2nd team players look like all star pro bowl talent so I will keep my hope the same....

This is reminding me of the playoff game against AZ when boldin was out....

Completely different situations - only one WR killed us that game and it's because we had a coaching staff that refused to adjust and let our best CB play on that WR in the 1st half when he had 151 of his 166 receiving yards. Also, if Cam has 6 turnovers like Jake did, yeah, safe to say we'll get blown out.

Norman is our slowest CB....and Eli loves to fling it vertically. Neither of those 2 have Cruz's speed and moves. Norman needs to be on whoever isn't named Cruz.....bc Eli is going to pick on him all night

First off, you should know that Gamble lines up on the left, and Josh lines up on the right. Secondly, have you seen how far back Nakamura lines up? I wouldn't worry about Eli throwing to many deep balls successfully, especially not with our newly found pressure/pass rush.

WoW!!!

Advantage for us.

Let's hope Cruz doesn't kill us alone like in 08' when we thought Boldin being out was an advantage and Fitz murdered us by himself. Just sayin.

NY has a weak secondary with or w/o Prince. Cam and Smitty are going to light it up!

what are you doing !!!!!!!! U mentioned THE game. Never mention THE game.

[Tarheels23]

Gamble will be on Cruz at least for the most part

Norman's main assignment will be either Ramses Barden or rookie Rueben Randle. ...I think he can hold his own against either of those two.

Gamble will line up on whoever comes over to his side of the field, same with Norman.

[CatMan72]

I'm much more concerned about how we match up with Cruz...

That was just because Fox was an idiot, didn't assign Gamble to Fitz and just let him line up all over the field against our lesser corners

Most likely you'll see Jernigan in the slot (3rd round pick last year) when cruz is out wide and when cruz is in the slot you'll see

Ruben Randall out wide. Ramses Barden will get a fade or two in the red zone. Jernigan has flashed some, making great catches, but dropping easy ones. Randall looks "pro ready" so far. A lot of guys out. Chris Canty is on PUP also. North Carolina star Marvin Austin will go, so that might be interesting for Carilina fans.

fwiw, giants beat the pats last year without nicks and bradshaw.

[PantherPhann89]

I don't like to see any player get injuried but I ain't mad....

[jtnc]

Still not out of the woodwork so stop acting like we've already won the damn game.

Exactly....Giants can get their matchups.

Eli throws down the sideline better than anyone....his favorite spot. Neither of our Ss have shown they can provide consistant help.

I am very worried about Eli torching us. They arent gonna line up and run over us.....you should know there gameplan involves attacking Norman and our 2 S in the air. I mean if you arent worried about that.....it sounds like u think we are going to dominate.
