Comments on: Eli Has Chest Injury, Severity Unknown http://www.giantsfootballblog.com/2008/10/14/eli-has-chest-injury-severity-unknown/ Giants Football Blog - New York Giants News and Opinion Fri, 30 Jul 2010 13:24:16 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: DSulls http://www.giantsfootballblog.com/2008/10/14/eli-has-chest-injury-severity-unknown/comment-page-1/#comment-5988 DSulls Wed, 15 Oct 2008 13:40:11 +0000 http://www.giantsfootballblog.com/?p=2491#comment-5988 If any of you have that game DVRed, I'd like you to watch it again and pay closer attention to the rampant holding that was going on all game. There were more than a few plays that went for a lot of yardage where the closest Giant who could have made a play early was held badly. Without the refs calling them on it, they just continued to hold all night. With that said, I'm not making excuses for them. They flat out played badly. Also, that play where Eli got hurt was flat out dirty. There was no need for him to get driven into the ground the way he did.

Also they did not blitz with their linebackers as well as they normally do, I think that made a huge difference.

However, I feel that the key factor in this game was the giants defensive line. The Giants gave Anderson all the time in the world to find his receivers despite having the Browns get into deep holes do to penalties. Because the pass rush was nonexistent, the Browns were able to keep the chains moving, and keep the Giants defense on the field.

I mean they could not stop Rodgers and were forced to double team him. This allowed many open holes to Eli. I cannot say im surprised he was injured.
