It’s safe to say that New York Giants RB Brandon Jacobs had one of his worst years in the NFL last season. The entire Giants running game seemed to be injured or playing injured throughout the year. When the year was over (basically after the Panthers game) officially, the coaches decided to place a number of Giants on the IR list, Jacobs was one of those players to close out the season on the Injured Reserve list. Jacobs had arthroscopic surgery on his right knee in January which begs the question of how well he will perform in 2010. Can he go back to that bruising, bully style of running attack that gave him his reputation in the first place? I think Brandon the Bull will be fine in 2010. He will be playing with a chip on his shoulder this year. I am extremely confident that RB Brandon Jacobs will rush for 1,000 yards this season. Who wants to bet against him?
RB Ahmad Bradshaw had some ankle issues and injuries of his own, after rookie RB Andre Brown was lost for the season in training camp. DJ Ware played in a limited role but missed a bunch of time due to injury as well. Hopefully, 2010 will prove to be a year when injuries are a non factor for the running back group. I truly believe that the Giants can return to form if they can find the missing piece, which is who will fill the Derrick Ward role from a couple of years ago? Can Andre Brown step up and do that? Brandon Jacobs runs too hard to be in the game for every single down. The running game in general needs some help from the third string and beyond.

The New Meadowlands Stadium will open for the 2010 NFL season. There will be a concert there long before that during the summer. It’s tough to see them tearing it down. I have a lot of great memories attached to that old stadium. Both inside watching the game and the tailgating before the game were equally entertaining. I can’t even count how many times I have had the pleasure of attending Giants games. I have been in the best seats in the house to the worst seats they had up top. I’ve been to the NFL Draft party they throw there and on the field itself. I’ve been in the locker room and toured the building. I am glad that I did all of those things before they tore it down. I felt the same way about visiting Monument Park in the old Yankee Stadium before they built the new one. What are some of your memories from the old Giants stadium?

David Carr is a San Francisco 49er. This is something I did not want to happen. I liked the idea of having a reliable backup QB in the wings such as Carr. Now we will need to bring in another QB to backup Eli Manning. Rhett Bomar is the only other QB listed on the roster. There have been some rumors about Mark Brunell possibly coming to town. I’ve heard things about Michael Vick and Jeff Garcia. There have been a bunch of other rumors but Tom Coughlin will no doubt provide a veteran backup QB for Eli. Eli is still an iron man, having never missed a start in his career. This team seems to be going through more of a change then I anticipated.
Who do you think the Giants will end up with as a backup QB?

Safety Antrel Rolle signed with the Giants for 5-years at $37 million dollars. This is a huge upgrade to the secondary and addresses a position of need for the team. I expect big things from this years free agency market. Getting Rolle was just the start of Jerry Reese’s plan to overhaul certain positions on the team. Look for the Giants to address the MLB position next. The G-Men need a veteran MLB to compliment the rookie MLB they will pick up in the draft this year. They will also double tap the safety position by drafting someone at that position as well IMO. Things are getting interesting for Giants fans.
