"No More BS" and Andre Brown's goals.

JPP Sick of BS, ABrown Sets Lofty Goals


Jason Pierre-Paul has put his two cents into what has hindered the Giants in the past few years. Apparently it has been too much "BS". He, like all of us fans, is frustrated with the lack of consistent play from this ball club since Coughlin has come on as head coach. They always start off hot, go ice cold, then try to catch a spark and ride the flame to the Super Bowl.

“We can’t BS around this year,” JPP said on Tuesday. “The falling down and going up, that sucks, you know what I mean? Because it’s like every year it happens. Every year.”

He went on to say how much of an impact he made last year and how his stats didn't tell the whole story. Well I have news for him. He had 6.5 sacks last year, 10 less than 2011. Coughlin says the fact he came into camp overweight took him down a few pegs. JPP of course fired back saying he wasn't, going on to state that the NFL hasn't seen anything yet in terms of his potential. Beat a double team, and prove to us fans that your rookie season wasn't "BS".

On the offensive side of the ball, Andre Brown actually had some surprising aspirations.

“I have to outdo last year’s stats. Eight touchdowns – I want 22,” Brown said. “I want 1,300 (yards) this year. That’s the steppingstone. I have to erase last year’s stats and show I can do better.”

Yeah. See, here's the thing with that. David Wilson is going to be the featured back in this offense. Brown will not only split carries with him, but probably another back as well. Not to mention the aging offensive line the Giants have. Brown, however, will most likely be put in goal line and short yardage situations.  The guy broke his leg in November, crushing his breakout season. Does he have talent? Absolutely. Are the goals a little out of reach? Most likely.

Regular season schedule is released Thursday the 18th at 8PM ET,  with the draft a week from that. I will post the schedule when it is available and be giving you some info on potential 1st rd draft picks for the Giants sometime next week. PRESEASON SCHEDULE is below:
