Tendinitis Sidelines Barrow

Welcome, my brother!


Big C:

Strahan had a down year for him last year. And the reason I am not falling all over myself about the addition of Griffen is that he played pretty miserably last year. He also has a reputation for "taking plays off" but it seems that he doesn't tell anyone when he's going to do that. Last year, he watched a LOT of RBs stroll through the middle of the Giants' D-line so that the LBs and backs could make the tackle. I'd have to check this out, but I thought that Hamilton was hurt for about half the season; whatever.

The Giants' D-line was hardly their strong suit last year. Maybe I exaggerated when I said they were as bad as the Skins' D-line from last year which was just piss-pot-poor. But the Giants' D-line is a major reason that Barrow got as many tackles as he did. He did not get 50 of those tackles on the offensive side of the line of scrimmage!
