“I think it’ll be a good experience for everybody”, Garrett said.

The quarterback, who was sacked just four times in the Giants’ first five games, was sacked four times on Monday and penalized twice for intentional grounding.
Considering he missed the first four games of season on National Football League suspension and had not played since the first two weeks of the 2014 season due to a domestic violence incident involving guns when he was with Carolina, the comments were considered in poor taste.
Of course all that is much easier said than done.
While Cassel has 33 wins to five for Weeden and almost three times as many starts, he shares two things with the deposed Dallas starter: a losing record and a penchant for interceptions.
At least the guy who you’d think would be most upset by the lack of targets is taking it in stride. He did do a little rehab conditioning on the field last Thursday, but it’s not time for him to get into team practices yet. “It was strenuous work, the kind that if he can step out here and have a couple really good days of practice, you could see him on go”. The second-year wideout has been dealing with hamstring issues since training camp and will take “mental reps” this week in practice to avoid risking further injury.
New York Giants running back Rashad Jennings (23) runs past Philadelphia Eagles defensive end Fletcher Cox (91) during the first quarter at Lincoln Financial Field. Manning on 2nd and 9 from the NYG 18, took the center snap, and then he threw a missile-like pass towards receiver Dwayne Harris who was waiting for the pass near the left sideline. This is where we are right now, and it may be that way for a while. “It may be that way for a while”. He understands how to get himself ready to play.
“Well, we’ve gone back and done all our homework”, Coughlin said.
More importantly after Monday night’s debacle the Giants need to stop the bleeding.
That season, Cassel completed 327 of 516 passes (63.4 percent) for 2,924 yards and 21 touchdowns to 11 interceptions while leading the Patriots to 11 wins. But when the 27-7 loss ended, his stats were still seven catches for 61 yards, and a touchdown. But we’ll observe him as well. Coughlin said he’ll talk about that after it happens. “As soon as I have information, I’ll let you know”.
Despite Bradshaw’s strong opinion about Hardy, Cowboys owner Jerry Jones believes that his franchise can change Hardy and that they will take him in and straighten him out. Will Beatty, who has not played this season because of a pectoral injury he suffered in May, will begin working in individual drills in practice this week. You’ve got to find the guys that have the single coverage and those guys have got to win for us. And so plays like that pick-six he had tonight was pivotal not only for the Eagles defense, but for Carroll to justify his high 2015 price tag as a number two cornerback for the Eagles.
Offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo said the reduction in production was not Beckham’s fault. They are also what makes him special, Marinelli said. “We’ve got to be able to handle the big games. But that’s just where we are”. “It wasn’t Odell. We had a bad half of football that we need to fix, and it’s fixable”.

The Giants ran only 22 plays in the second half (42 in the first hall), so Beckham’s opportunities were relatively scarce. We work harder than anybody else and when we don’t, we lose.
