Car most likely spot for Nicks

[TheRed]

I'll play along...

In 2010 Steve Smith sucked. He was atrocious.

He was busy demanding a trade while his fans were busy blaming everyone but him for his shortcomings.

Lmao, Eli Manning is Jimmy Clausen?

If you think Nicks is even remotely reason for the Giants debacle you didn't watch them at any point last season

Not the reason but a reason. ask his coach who mentioned how he lacked appetite to get seperation when targeted by Eli which was a factor in some interceptions, that's a quote from ny paper look it up as was his attitude and total lack of interest in team meetings if he turned up on time which he uncounted numerous fines, I'm not trolling hakeem nicks, most of you who like him can use that as an excuse against what I say but, for a guy in a contract year and seemingly wanting to stay in ny, which he did look back at articles where he mentioned he would like to stay he didn't exactly do himself well did he, so excuse me for not being overly excited that we may decide to want him, but if he comes and wears a jersey il support him like any other player.

If it's such a team sport why was he fined for missing team meetings?

I didn't say he was perfect, but he's not the only one to blame for the drop in production.

Hakeem Nicks could come here & average 90 Rec 1200 Yd 10 TD over a 5 year span & people would still bash him because he's a UNC guy.

I hate UNC more than most but am a big Nicks fan

In every Hakeem Nicks thread, there is always someone blaming his teammates for his own shortcomings.

Smith had a pro bowl QB....was the #1 target....and managed only 750 yards.

Nicks had more yards...was the #2 option....played on a bum knee....and had a QB throwing to him that was a train wreck and a complete turnover navhine.

Nicks is every bit the weapon that Smitty is.

JOAT, we can agree to disagree. I'm not opposed to bringing in Nicks. But I won't ignore his flaws.

Nobody is saying that he isn't talented.

But we don't have to talk poo about Eli Manning, and the rest of his teammates to make him look better.

[Growl]

here we go another 48 page thread where TheRed craps TheBed by laying down emotionally driven nonsense to form some preconceived "anti"-bias against all the supposed "tar heel fans" (lol like such a thing even exists) with each argument eventually circling back to ZOMG HE DIDNT SHOW UP TEN MINUTES EARLY FOR TOM COUGHLINS MEETING HE WAS LATE DOESNT LIKE FOOTBALL

I'm not ignoring his flaws, I just think the risk vs reward is in our favor. He's not the only guy I want either.

Growl are you going to contribute here or spew the usual "herp derp" meme speak we've read a million times before?

Eli and the OL were atrocious last season. That is a fact.

I actually like Eli...just not the Eli of last season.

My perfect scenario would be to work something out with Steve Smith, and sign Nicks to a reasonable deal.

if he stays healthy (and that IS an if)...nicks right now is better than Smith right now.

I would piss my pants if we could get that done.
