Perry Fewell should not be an NFL defensive coordinator, He is a black affirmative action higher that has no business running this defense. His schemes are lame, and that's with a full deck of cards.

I am not sure you guys realize this, but the Giants were down to practice squad cornerbacks. Their top 4 cornerbacks were out, so what happens when you need to run a nickel defense?

The right side of the offensive line has been a disaster. Will Beaty has been a disaster.
The RB position has been a disaster after Andrew Brown got hurt and David Wilson fumbled twice.
Nicks was hurt and didn't do anything to this week.

So Eli Manning is in 3rd and 9 after 3rd and 9 with crappy blocking, what do you expect to happen? He is not going to throw a 3 yard pass and punt. Manning is a winner and he'd rather throw a 10 yard pass to move the chains or get a penalty or go home. How many loser QB's do you see that throw a 2 yard pass on 3rd and 10 and are completly ok with punting?

If it was 3rd and 4 and Eli had blocking they'd be moving the chains. His stats aren't a reflection of him, it is a reflection of crappy blocking and no run game, and the Giants defense has been a disaster also. Picking up guys off the practice squad and guys like Brandon Jacobs off the couch.
