How Good/Bad are the New York Giants

Too Cocky by Tom Chieppo (Graduate Student at UNH)

When I look at The New York Giants, I see a team that needs to be

disciplined. Why? Well, because they talk more instead of accomplishing more.

I don't like when a team talks a lot and can't back up what they're saying,

and I find it disgraceful. Stop trying to break the opposing teams by trash talking

because its not working. When trash talking happens, the Giants commit too

many stupid penalties such as penalties and the Giants lead the league in penalties.

I understand that getting inside your opponents head can become

motivation for your team; however, they give up against winning football teams

like The Dallas Cowboys and The Green Bay Packers because they get bullied by

them. The Giants feel that they're the kings of the playground, but they're not

proving it on the field.

Tom Coughlin, the coach of The N.Y. Giants needs to be the angry

coach that he was before. Coughlin has to shake up this team and tell them to

stop being big shots and start focusing on the game of football. If I were the

head coach of the Giants, I would tell my team that their attitudes

are unacceptable. I would also tell them, "when we play hard as a team, we don't win football

games, but playing smart football will win more games." This organization needs to get on

a role because New England will be here before the Giants know it and the

Pats will tear the heads off the Giants. The player's need to get serious if they

want to keep Tom Coughlin's job past this season.
