Missing Something

by Kenrick Thomas

[1] What to do now? The New York Giants are in trouble. Many thought the Giants were going to struggle, but "shoot". Not being able to beat the Green Bay Packers. What has happened? They were expected to win. Many didn't know what to expect.

The first quarter ended scoreless. In the second quarter, the Packers attacked first. DeShawn Wynn scored a 6 yard touchdown. 7-o score on the board. With 7:16, Eli Manning passes to Plaxico Burress for a 26 yard touchdown. The Giants tied the game, 7-7.

Late in the second, the Giants kick a field goal. The lead 10-7. The Giants couldn't hold on. The Packers get back on top in the third quarter. Brett Favre passes to Bubba Frank for a 2 yard TD, this lead to a 14-10 score.

At the end of the quarter, the Giants kick a field goal. The score is 14-13. In the fourth quarter, the Packers pulled away. Favre passes to Donald Lee for a three yard touchdown. Packers are up 21-13.

With 11:41 left in the forth, Favre passes to Donald Driver. That gives them a 10 yard touchdown, which lead to a 28-13 lead. To add on, the Packers scored again; Wynn rush for a 38 yard touchdown. The Giants were unable to score in the fourth quarter. This gives them the lost 35-13.

Getting "killed" by the Packers isn't good. To make things worse, Eli didn't finish the game. The Giants went through two quarterbacks, and had to use the third string. Starting the season 0-2 isn't good, because many didn't expect this to happen. This puts pressure on the Giants, and now their season looks like a "?". Giants head coach Tom Coughlin needs to make changes, because he is now on the hot seat.

Eli coming out of the game is no big deal. It was over, and you don't want your franchise QB to get hurt. Don't under estimate the Packers either, they are a solid team in a very even division.

I think the Packers have a real strong shot at winning the NFC North, a stingy defense at Brett Favre always gives you a chance to win.

If the running game can pan out, this will be competitive team in the playoffs.

The Packers did look impressives against the Giants, but with the Bears being in their division. It remains to be seen how the Packers finish in their division!

Everyone made fun of Favre last year when he said this was the most talented team he'd ever been with. But we all forgot that this team he referred to was really young last year. As the year went on, this young team grew and matured -- to the tune of a season-ending four-game winning streak. Add this 2-0 start and I'm not so sure if Favre wasn't at least partially on to something last year.

I'm not sure what changes Coughlin can make... the secondary is horrible even though they used their first draft pick on cornerbacks in two of the last three years. It doesn't help that Michael Strahan and Osi Umenyiora aren't getting any pressure of the quarterback. What's troubling is that the Packers offense is completely one-dimensional. They have no running game, but the Giants still gave up 35 points. They're in huge trouble.

Tom Coughlin isn't going to have his job, if his team doesn't make the post-season.
