Why is it that when a WR/TE/RB from another team, make a catch or play. People are so quick to call our LB, CB and Safeties, Junk or no good. Yet expect our WR/TE/RB to do the same thing to the opponents defense.

Same on offense, when our Oline gets beat, they are again considered crap, but we expect Kampman and the rest of the Dline to run over the opponents Oline.

Now I love our team for the most part, but am smart enough to realize that other teams have players that are just as good or better than a lot of our team.

I think before calling for our players to get cut, or replaced. We should think about it. What if it was our Offense against our Defense. If Driver makes a catch against Harris. Does that mean that Harris is that bad or that Driver is that good or just that Driver made a play? If Kampman beat Tauscher and sacked Rodgers, does that mean Tauscher should have been benched or that Kampman just got the best of him that play.

At least that is how I like to look at things. When Steve Smith caught that deep pass against Woodson. I try to think, what if that was Jennings catching that deep ball. Tends to make me yell at our players less.

OK. Let it be known for my 100th time saying this - the Giants beat us in the CG in '07. We did not lose because we screwed up. We lost because the Giants beat us.

I was sick and tired of hearing all this year how it was X players fault that we lost that game. How about giving some credit to the opposing players/coaches?

This post is right on. It's about time someone else said this.

Yeah, it's a really nice thing to keep in mind.

BTW, this is precisely why I was ecstatic, sitting next to my Pats fan girlfriend and 20 other Pats fans, to watch the Giants squash their perfect season hopes last year. No team deserves to feel untouchable. They were getting extremely arrogant out here, fans and radio media etc...
