Giants coordinator gets defensive
Bill Sheridan often speaks in a soft voice, makes extended eye contact and, except when he's on the field for practice or a game, moves methodically. He and his soothing demeanor have been a calm, steady presence for the Giants' defensive players since he was named coordinator in January. Until this past week, when the urgency of fixing a defense that has allowed a total of 112 points during the current three-game losing streak became apparent in Sheridan. "You can tell in his voice as far as some of the words he used," defensive end Justin Tuck said. "Now, I won't give you those words." Bad words? "I don't call them bad words," Tuck said. "I call them football words."

injures are a major problem, Ross and Phillips (IR) are killers...Pierce is on the down side

I guess Bernard Pollard can scratch the Giants from his list of possible landing sites. They use "football words" there and he doesn't like that.

Football words, eh? I used a lot of those last night during the Navy vs. Irish game. I propose we put Charlie Weiss on a 1,000 calorie per diem diet until he is able to have a ten win season.

Hey Stu - I saw your following comment - Don't think I can add anything to that. That should just about do it for the "Charlie" era...

Bill Sheridan is no Steve Spagnuolo. Everyone wants to point to the injuries; blame the pass rush. Because under Sheridan, it has been nothing special. When Spagnuolo was the D-Coordinator, it was all about the guys up front. It didn't matter who was in the secondary because the QB didn't have time in the pocket. NYG went out this off-season and stock-piled what was already the most talented D-line in the NFL... why can't Sheridan get a pass rush out of them?

Giants D didn't play that bad today, except for that last minute drive.

Their defensive secondary really needs to step it up. I can't believe that they just let the other team just march down the field like that on Sunday.
