The Giants have 11 sacks in their last two games. That comes after they had 11 sacks in the seven games before that. What gives? "One of them is Osi (Umenyiora) is back," defensive end Justin Tuck said today after the second practice of the week in preparation for Sunday's playoff game against the Falcons. "I think our intensity has been turned up in practice. And we’ve been as healthy as we’ve been all year." All of that combined is why the Giants' defense is confident heading into the postseason and the players believe they can make a run here. "We just have to cointinue to get better. We’ve had two good days of practice so far," Tuck said. "The biggest thing for us is learning what they want to do against us. Watching teams that have similar D-lines and run similar systems as we do see what they try to do to slow them down and have ways to combat that. After a pause, he added: "We can definitely make a lot of noise in this run. We’re only going to go as far as our quarterback and D-line take us." * * * * Umenyiora had a sack on one of the first few plays he had against the Cowboys. He came free when Tuck broke his rush to the outside and Umenyiora looped inside. "It was a designed stunt and something we worked on," Umenyiora said. "We knew the guy on the outside was going to chip me so me and him worked the game. He went high and I came up under the chip so I was happy it worked out that way." Despite missing four games, Umenyiora didn't lose any of the chemistry with his teammates, apparently. "Oh no question. Me and Justin especially," Umenyiora said. "We’ve worked together for a long time. A lot of times we don’t even have to look at each other but I know exactly what he’s going to do and I know exactly how I’m going to play off him because we’ve been in there so long together so it’s a positive for sure." More coming in the next few hours on Umenyiora, who strongly hinted he's in his final game(s) with the Giants. * * * * If this guy starts to make the playoffs about him and his selfishness, he will truly prove himself to be a complete scumbag. Anxious to see what Garafolo is alluding to. Hopefully it's not much more than his promoting the blog. |

We can only hope Osi has an MVP type post season.... With JPP's emergence no way will Osi stick around as a part time pass rush specialist. If he has a huge post season when the spotlight is on,every game being televised for the world to see,his trade value goes up I still say a team right now would be willing to give up a 2nd round pick for him as of now.. let's see if he can elevate his value to a 2nd and a_____ or even a 1st rounder |

I have a better chance of growing wings and flying over Giants stadium than we do getting a 1st rounder for Osi. Even if he has 12 sacks in the postseason. A MONSTER post season may bring a 2nd rounder, but I still highly doubt it. But yes, I'm hoping for him to step up big time, in order for him to step out with some decent compensation. |

Never underestimate the stupidtity of a GM who thinks he is a pass rusher away from a championship,especially a team with a very good offense and needs to protect a lead that has a not so good defense... Osi is a classic "last piece of the puzzle" kind of guy... We have seen this before |

Spags to Tampa is a hot rumor right now.. they do not have any outside pass rushers whatsoever,they do have 3 really young good DTs.. With their 1st pick they can draft one,trade their 2nd round pick for Osi |
