Other than a few plays, this team is playing like a well oiled machine. What a game by every aspect. Other than the long TD and the missed XP, the Vikings have played almost flawless.

If he'd done so in 2009 we'd have a Lombardi trophy! Why, nooooooo I'm not still bitter... :steamed: :steamed:

I'm pretty sure that the Giants cannot blame all of this on Odell Beckham Jr. Mostly because Manning is playing like utter garbage tonight, but also that their Defense just doesn't want to be there.

If Zimmer can Improve TB downfield passing and fix this Oline we could a force to reckon with for the next 5 years or so

Poor Sendejo... he's not too bright, and he tries to hit, instead of tackle... but he did have a pick tonight, didn't he?

I'm telling you guys, if we can fix our O-Line and simply build around the Team we have now. We're going to be a scary team for at least a good 3-4 years, maybe more than that. I personally think TB is fine, just needs to find Chemistry with his Wideouts. Would be nice if we could grab a 'Calvin Johnson' like Receiver though.
