Jacobs will be starting at QB.If turnovers are so important to Coughlin then I guess Eli is going to sit next week?

Their odds were under 1 percent, I am sure the odds of getting Eli injured were higherto try and win the game - it's been done before.Why would you leave your franchise quarterback in there, down 3 scores with 5 minutes left?They aren't going to let their franchise QB get killed in order to let Wilson "practice" blocking.I agree with you that he can't block, but what better way to learn to block then in a game. Especially a game you aren't going to win so if he messes up he can learn and it won't cost them a winBecause he can't block. I don't understand why it is easier for some to believe Coughlin is a bad coach, or willing to lose to prove a point - rather than accept that Wilson needs to improve in pass protection.I don't understand why Wilson can't get some dumpoff/screens or slants he is a far better and more electric player then jacobs or scott that's pretty pathetic, The giants are total idiots and should be shot for how they managed the game, they just want to lose games, total morons.
What was your perspective on his pass protection today? Specific examples would be helpful.Yes. I watched the entire game.Did you watch his pass protection today?
Nothing stood out, except that he wasn't given the opportunity very often. He's not the 3rd down back, and you and I both know why that is.What was your perspective on his pass protection today? Specific examples would be helpful.
It could cost them their qb though. He's not going to risk that. He's going to have to continue to watch film, get limited chances and when he gets them he MUST get it right. If he doesn't he'll be stuck in this purgutory indefinitely.I agree with you that he can't block, but what better way to learn to block then in a game.

Honestly, from watching the game today I actually thought he looked pretty good in pass protection. Every play I saw he stepped up and took the hit. He was no Bradshaw, but the difference between last week and this week was night and day. There was one play in particular where the pass rusher clearly assumed Wilson would go for his legs and took to the air to jump over him. But Wilson didn't, he stood tall and flipped the guy over on his ###. There was a few others where just did exactly what you ask of him, he just ran up and hit the guy and knocked him off the rush long enough for Eli to get the pass off and not take the hit.What was your perspective on his pass protection today? Specific examples would be helpful.Yes. I watched the entire game.Did you watch his pass protection today?
Not a Wilson owner and I think Coughlin is a moron in this situation. Brandon Jacobs playing right off the street? :X I don't see many saying Wilson is awesome, just that he's better than what they currently have. He's had very little opportunity as a first round pick from last year with only turds on the roster around him who are definitely no better. I don't see how that's so hard to understand.Generally speaking, threads like this are frustrating because Wilson owners and Wilson non-owners dig their heals in and see everything through the filter of what they already want to believe.
No kidding. Solid pass pro analysis in that post by Sinn Fein.You are holding it against him that he was in the game when Eli was sacked?I'm not talking about stats.Today? 7 carries for 17 is "dynamic" now? Or are you just so excited about his two yard gain, that you think he can run north-south, as well as he can run east-west?Avery said:It's always tough to read "intent" on the Internet but I'm not sure if your being quippy, obtuse or if you genuinely think Wilson has no skills as a RB.cstu said:True, he doesn't look like a speed guy either.Avery said:All the people who say he is just a speed guy clearly haven't watched him run the ball.In the limits chances he had, he looked solid in pass protection and looked dynamic as a runner.
I'm talking about watching him run and watching him play.
He runs strong and is electric as a ball carrier. If you have watched him and aren't just checking in on the stats, we are having such a disconnect on talent evaluation, I don't see how any discussion is worthwhile.
People tend to get so locked in their position of loving or hating a player they often can't take information and revise their position.
I get that his fumbling issues and blocking issues may relegate him to a lesser roll but I honestly don't understand how anyone can watch him run and not see the innate skillet and running talent there.I've seen the whole game. He was in when Eli was sacked, he had one good 2-yard run, where he went sideline to sideline. What do you want to point to as his highlights for the game?
I think he was on the sidelines for both of Eli's picks. Perhaps those were somehow his fault as well.
I can think of a couple of reasons why DWilson wouldn't get GL carries. ...not that I disagree with the theme of your post, but RBs that fumble get pulled; and DWilson not getting GL carries was a reasonable move this week; whether his replacements were successful or not...at least they didn't fumble.Yeah Jacobs punches it in from inside the 1 yard line after he and Scott had combined to be stuffed about 3 times before that. If you have enough carries, you're eventually going to get in there if you're as big as Jacobs. No reason on earth that Scott should be getting GL opportunities ahead of Wilson.
Yeah, I can only imagine that emphasising it to that extent just compounds the issue and makes things worse. Right now, Wilson can't relax and just play football or play instinctively because he's just thinking about not fumbling. That was evident on the first couple of carries and with the way he was holding the ball totally taking away from his natural running style. The disappointing thing was that he started to get into a bit of rhythm in the second quarter and was never seen again. Now if that's because he truly can't pass protect and they were in catch up mode and needed Scott in there, then fine. But surely on early downs if you're trying to score some points, it would be better trying to get Wilson in space than have Jacobs running for 1 yard a carry. And if the problem is more pass protection than fumbling, then you would think he would still get GL carries over Scott.I can think of a couple of reasons why DWilson wouldn't get GL carries. ...not that I disagree with the theme of your post, but RBs that fumble get pulled; and DWilson not getting GL carries was a reasonable move this week; whether his replacements were successful or not...at least they didn't fumble.Yeah Jacobs punches it in from inside the 1 yard line after he and Scott had combined to be stuffed about 3 times before that.

That being said, those that want to blame either WIlson *or* Coughlin are the ones who are clueless imho.
The Denver game proved that Coughlin is close-to-equally responsible for the Wilson mess as Wilson is. Wilson's technique for carrying the football today, which was drilled into him this week by coaches from the top-down, was clownish at best and exposed the silliness of the entire situation. All Coughlin proved with that was that his team will follow him like General Custer. Not that the o-line isn't contributing to this mess too, but Coughlin is not helping. Congrats Tom. Now you have no running game, but you are definitely the boss.
You own the most talented back on the roster. The production is going to come eventually. Sometimes it just takes time. At some point Coughlin will start to feel the pressure because losses always come home to roost for the HC eventually. And so what other options does he really have to "change things up" when everyone's looking at him and asking him what he's going to do to turn things around? Bench Eli? Bench Cruz or Nicks? Start mixing up the o-line? Start using Wilson more?I'm back from the game as as frustrating as it is from a fans perspective watching a team turn the ball over 9 times in 2 games is enough to pull my hair out....it is clear to me today that Coughlin has no confidence in this kid. Denver is a quick defense and Jacobs is big and slow. He joined the team on Tues and he played a lot today, more than anyone could have expected. Scott was in there for what seemed like the entire 2nd half. Wilson showed tremendous signs today that he was ready to break one.
Al I can say is TC is burying the kid and bringing him alone slowly, and in the process losing DWill. There isn't anyone who can say Scott or Jacobs is better.
As a Wilson owner I am very concerned.
Best post if the thread. There is no scenario where the 0-2 Giants make it to the playoffs without trusting Wilson to breakout. No one wants Tom to roll with Jacobs.I can think of a couple of reasons why DWilson wouldn't get GL carries. ...not that I disagree with the theme of your post, but RBs that fumble get pulled; and DWilson not getting GL carries was a reasonable move this week; whether his replacements were successful or not...at least they didn't fumble.Yeah Jacobs punches it in from inside the 1 yard line after he and Scott had combined to be stuffed about 3 times before that.

You can kinda tell how bold the haters are getting in that they don't even try to offer analysis. At this point they point to ypc without any consideration of the context and fault his mere presence on the field for a sack.
Will be curious to see if they apply the same measuring stick to all RB's or selectively use those arguments because it suits their preconceived notions concerning Wilson. It's always nice to come into the SharkPool and see such thoughtful discussion.
This can't be serious logical thinking can it? He can't pas block so let him learn in a game setting? So that he can get his $100mm sb winning qb and heart and soul of the team clobbered and taken out of the stadium on a stretcher?

I deserve that. I benched the guy this week for Bradshaw. Probably would've won either way.BumpI'll try to be nice to you when bumping this thread all season. I'm not sure others will be as kind. Remember, you reap what you sew...If just spent time to say what happened in a actual game I watch. why would I go watch a highlight clip after that? That's the problem, you're watching highlights.Whatever you do ... Do Not! I repeat Do Not!!! Look at these links. I will only make it hurt that much more.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uviR8HjLDxkHalf of this thread is about a rookie getting bench ONE GAME for fumbling early. I don't understand this at all. If you watch the Tampa game(Wk 2) he was still being utilized EARLY in the game. The 1st possession Wilson lines up in a empty backfield and drops a easy pass for crying out loud. The second possesion he get 2 carries for 5 yards. Andre Brown was the primary back on the first TD drive that went close to 80 yards. "Don't quote me on this," but he ran for at least half of those 80 yards. Wilson's first two games he had 5 carries for 10 yards and two drops! That's why Wilson was benched! It had little to do with just ONE fumble. Brown was more effective as the Bradshaw replacement. Then Brown goes and looks like the greatest RB ever vs Car the next week. Vs the Eagles Wilson was still dropping passes. I know it drives you guys crazy, but it's true. I like Wilson as a prospect. I think there is a chance he reaches an elite status in the NFL. Right now the hype is not warrented. He was awful as a rookie, outside of 1-3 runs in blowouts that skews his ypc to an "elite" status on a small sample size. Andre Brown was better then him. That's not hard to say.

He was supposed to pick up the blitz on the sack. He picked up the wrong player. Eli was thrown around like a rag doll.
It was his presence on the field that led to the sack.
I have acknowledged he had 1 nice two-yard run. He went east-west, instead of north-south, but it was pretty to watch him scamper along the line of scrimmage. Did I miss any others?
Coughlin did not play him because he did not think he was the best back for any given situation. Its not just about the fumbling - that is being used by the Wilsonites as an excuse, but if Coughlin was really worried about fumbling, he would not have had Wilson returning kicks.
Right now it appears that Wilson is a speed merchant, who is not ready to be a bell cow RB for an NFL team. There is no shame in that, but neither is it a reason to keep pining for the love of your life, and whining like a spoiled parent when their kid does not get enough playing time. When he earns the playing-time, in practice and in games, Coughlin will use him. Right now he simply is not good enough to be an every down back. But, how many every down backs are in the NFL? A small handful?

TC just keeps complaining about the ineffectiveness of the run game.....yet he doesn't want to play their best RB. So yeah.Full pressers are up on giants.com; not much there from what I watched. Wilson has a 3-4 min spot
So according to that him, he still needs a first and second down back.

He said the three RBs had their roles going in basically - Scott for 3rd downs, Jacobs for short yardage, and Wilson "had his special plays". LOL.
Hopefully....Coughlin. until then, wilson will be riding the pine on my roster as well.who has the cajones to roll with him next week?

Disheartening to see Jacobs come off the street and get more carries but again I saw Wilson whiff a couple times on protection, it's not looking good from here on out but would be dumb to sell right now, his value can only get lower with a season ending injury.
I may be forced to... it's either him or ineffectice Roddy white, which is a whole nother case. They keep saying White is hurt but he is doin chest bumps with ####### julio everytime he scores. If he is to hurt to play sit the clown.who has the cajones to roll with him next week?
