Giants @ Chargers Pregame Discussion (wk 14)

[CivilBolt]

Giants former K Lawrence Tynes characterizes the 2021 squad as 'complete incompetence in all facets of the organization.'

Please don’t change anything until after our game :biggrin:

This will be Fromm's one shot at a career in the NFL. Game like this, guys like this, scare the hell out of me

Same. He'll look like an all-pro, well, because Chargers, lol.

I wouldn't expect many pass plays from the Giants, but they might surprise.

Any long time Charger fan knows that, historically, Chargers defenses have made marginal QBs look like Hall of Famers. I wish it weren't true, but it is.

The Bolts need no less than 100% focus on this game against the Giants. For the rest of the schedule it will be, week-to-week, about remaining in position to secure a playoff berth.

Nah it's going to be Nathan Peterman all over again. The Giants are going to receive a gigantic beatdown.

Or he could end up just like Nathan Peterman in that 2017 game against the Bills.

IMO, you can hope for that, but you can't plan for that.

Good to see LT and Junior again !
Do you know if that game have a name ?
The snowball Bowl ?

I don't think it has a name, but any Chargers fan who was alive at that time probably remembers it. The NFL reviewed the game film & perma-banned a bunch of those fans from NFL stadiums. A few were prosecuted as I recall.

Now you're up to speed, the Giants are starting a QB off the Bills practice squad.

Since he is from Buffo let's make his first career start look like Petermans first start again the Chargers a few years ago.

A few years ago I thought the way the Chargers were going to replace Rivers was to draft a mid-round QB with the intention of letting him sit for a few seasons and let him learn the pro game behind Rivers. In 2018, when Fromm had that great season for Georgia, I thought he might be that guy a few years hence when he entered the draft. The Bills drafted him in the 5th round last year then released him after TC this year and signed him to the PS. The Giants signed him off of the Bills' PS about a week ago. It will be interesting to see what he has, if the Giants go with him.

Desperation time...

[blueman]

But he has a stash, fear the stash.

[Charge!]

Trap game. After beating Cincy and the math in our favor if we win out, this scares me. Hope you do your job, Staley, and have these guys ready.

agree... and team may be looking forward to chiefs game on short week......

I was at that game. The Peterman era lasted for one-half of football.
