Ditkaless Wonders Posted September 19, 2012 Share Posted September 19, 2012 Last page for this week on the Seattle game. I watched the game this week again and the Giants game trying to figure out what the difference was from one week to the next. What I saw was this. The intensity level at the Giants compared to Seattle was much different as was the urgency. I could tell by the demeanor of the players on the sideline and on the field. They new that if they didn't bring it in NY Eli would beat them. They came out of the huddle in NY intense while in Seattle they looked like "ahh Russell isn't going to kill us so just keep him in the pocket". The D line didn't rush with the intensity at all that was there in the Giants game. So basically what I saw was the attitude of "we don't have to bring it like we did in NY to beat Seattle". The same attitude I had going into the week. You see after going down 10 points with lack of concentration (dropped balls) and lack of urgency. The "we need to score now" urgency was not there, was more like "ahh they ain't going no where, we'll get it together." Obviously we were both WRONG! No team at home should be taken lightly and hopefully that lesson was learned this past week. Kind of a fundamental lesson. One that should be learned in Pop Warner, or High School at the latest. Not a lesson pros should have to learn. Also I suspect that should I go through your posts from last year that this was a lesson they learned once and for all back then, several times.
