Stats

Well, the season is coming; I'm not a big stat person but
The Eagles were -14 in turnovers 24v38. How much would their season last year have changed of that was even a -5? Immensely I believe and I can't see them being that bad again this year. This one area alone could make a significant difference.

Kick returns; they ranked 31st in the league (20.9). But 5th in the league was only 5 yards more (26.0). I don't think 5 added yards on KRs would make a world of difference but it certainly should be easy enough to improve on a ranking of 31st in the league.

When leading at the half the birds were 8-2. When losing at the half the birds were 0-6. Not sure what that says but great halftime adjustments isn't what comes to mind.

-14 to -5? Heck, depending on which turn-over you took back, just going from -14 to -13 would have meant 1 more win. 1 more win would've meant the Giants wouldn't have made the play-offs. The entire NFL season would have been completely different...just based on the difference of 1 f-ing turn-over by the Eagles. That's how frustrating last season was.

I've been trying to forget that the Giants won the SB.

This season can't get here soon enough.

I try not to think about it because it really makes me sick.
Living here in Giants/Yankees Land can really get to you.
All I can do is shake my head.

Let me make it worse because apparently I hate myself. Allow me to pick one turnover to take back...How about the would-have-been TD pass to Steve Smith that bounced off his chest for an INT. Even when he wasn't wearing a Giants uniform, he may have been their most important player.

Yea he sure didn't help the birds one friggin bit. For ugliest turnover in the history of the sport I submit the Ronnie Brown fiasco.

As an aside, my son is working at giants stadium next week. I told him I would be happy to give him two or three small explosive devices for the home locker room. Unfortunately I'm here while he is in NY and I don't have any to get to him.

The Ronnie Brown play was so retarded you just have to laugh at it all.

But Vin they practiced that play over and over in camp....

You'd think someone would have told Andy it was a stupid play and to take it out of the playbook.
