    Giants Game Observations

    Super weird hearing crowd noise when there was no crowd -- still don't like the fake noise

    Dupree's nickname needs to be changed from "Bud" to "Stud"

    I probably didn't need to be so worried about losing Hargrave

    Giants had a decent plan, but we were just too much for them

    After watching Johnson on PR duty, I'm wondering if they'll give Ray-Ray a shot at it

    Benny Snell football might be here for awhile

    Loved Washington's toughness on the TD

    Hated to see Banner go down. That sucks.

    Edmunds still not great in coverage, but made a couple of top-notch tackles

    Ben looks like Ben ... quite a relief

    We're still knocking the rust off -- wait until we get in a groove

    Did I mention how impressed I was with Dupree?

    The defense gave up a couple of long drives. They created turnovers, got pressure, and only gave up 7 points.

          I thought it was a questionable call.

              In 2 weeks this offense will be awesome.

              And the Defense will be even be even better.

                  Agreed

                  Thought the game was pretty well officiated for the most part, though

                    that really puts a damper on the win if both OL are out for the year.

                    questioin regarding the covid expanded practice squads. are teams still able to poach the PSquads of other teams?

                      I think you can protect 5 or 6 players on your PS -- someone correct me if I'm wrong -- the rest are up for grabs

                        Thought TJ got held a lot tonight uncalled. Some of them blatant.

                        Wis is listed with a pec injury. Do we know it’s season ending?

                        Practice Squad - teams can grab a guy from another PS but he has to immediately go on the 53 roster so a player gets cut to make room. Teams can protect 4 players.

                          every time a steeler had a pec injury - it was season ending. that would really suck. what's the word on decastro? do we expect him back next week? I suspect the steelers are shopping around already.

                            Overall its a win against an inferior opponent.

                            You could tell Ben was shaking the rust off but looked like Ben in the 2nd half
                            Snell needs to be the #1
                            Connor needs to be the 3rd down back
                            Claypool will fight for a catch
                            Johnsn showed some mental toughness after botching the punt, made 6 or 7 catches
                            TEs need to show up more than they did tonight
                            Minkah had a bad game especially trying to tackle and got baited on the TD throw
                            I don't know if Colquitt is an upgrade, his punts were very returnable
                            I hate the Steelers running game, hopefully, Snell will put some attitude into it with his running style
                            1-0 and on to Denver
