Only had to wait close to 3 years to get one game to crow about...

Still too slow, Ag...

And only had to wait another week now that they have "discovered" what they had all along. 170 yds and two TDs today for Henry in a 17-0 win over the Giants. Go to the 1:49 mark.

Lousy OL.....still, I think it best for him to move on.

Eli isn't running out of time.. he ran out about 2 seasons ago

We may need a backup QB...

As for Barkley... we absolutely got it right.

NYG? Tougher call... I can't criticize their thinking. When they've built around Eli before he's won SBs. When they neglected the O and went D crazy, they went in the shitter. He's still young enough and apparently interested enough to stay for one more push, and a run game was key to that rebuild. More OL work plus a TE and they can compete for the NFCE.

That's one thing we've been very good at Tour. Drafting backup quarterbacks. 

Regarding Manning, he's 37, and running out of time. I can't see them competing with the Cowboys or a healthy Eagles team, and certainly not with the Rams.

I thought Saquon would be good, but not this good this fast. Anyone still think we should have taken him over Baker? The Giants are still going to need a replacement for Eli, in a supposedly weaker 2019 QB class. LOL, finally, something the Browns won't have to worry about in April.

I won’t know what to think when QB is not our first priority in the draft.

No. 

I do not regret for a second passing on Barkley, and I never doubted he'd be good in the NFL. 

The Giants should have never passed on Darnold.

That’s what I was thinking reading this thread. He’s had a lot of opportunity from what I’ve seen. I’ve been wrong a few times before though. Definitely wrong on Barkley. I’ll just have to own that one.

Your memory is slipping. There was another last year I posted somewhere.  LOL

Go watch the 54 yard one if you think he's slow. 1:55 mark.

Where has Henry been the last three years or however long it’s been in the league

He was stuck with a now fired stupid coach. The new one is finally catching on that to win with a big horse you have to ride him the whole game while he wears down the will of a defense to stop him. That is exactly what happened in this game. On the shorter 20 yd or so TD the last 3 guys inside the 5 just backed off the tackle, knowing  they could not stop him and they might get hurt if they tried. Look at thee 1:21 mark in the video. Expect to see him a lot more the rest of their season. He actually has good hands too, something the Giants know about Barkley that I'm not sure the Titans know yet about Henry.

Maybe teams have been ultra motivated to face them, after Jalen Ramsey's trash talking GQ article.

Saw almost all of that game... True, some impressive running by Henry. Also some atrocious tackling by the Jags. Looks like they quit.  Did have to look it up. Single game record is 296 yards, so that wasn't in jeopardy of getting broken. 

PS- Kessler looked terrible....  

There was 20 minutes left in the game and he was at 220. They just dialed it back.

Had the game on while doing other things Kessler looked ok at times -or- like he was getting hit by a truck....a couple good ones, ouch.

93rd pick in the draft and on the 2016 & 2017 CLE teams, I wonder what he'd do on a good team?

Yes, later they did give up. But this was early in the game. This run was a Jim Brown/Bo Jackson worthy moment. Power, speed & determination to remain in bounds.

And Keesler looked like a "trust me" pick.?
