Around SBN: Post-UNC Thoughts

Watching Osi and Pierce

Thoughts on similarities between NYG's #72 and #58 and Houston's #90 and #59?  The Giants D has really impressed me tonight.  Could Amobi become a Justin Tuck?  Clearly, I'm drunk...or am I?

Yes Tim, you are drunk
Otherwise, the Scott personality wouldn't have emerged.
We can be critical of the draft picks, but in the end we always support the new Texan.

What the Tuck?
Tuck is basically an end with the strength to play up the middle.  With Osi and Strahan capably filling the roles at DE, the Giants have the luxury of another speed rusher up the middle.

Amobi won't be a Tuck (who I'm pretty sure will move over to DE once the Gap retires)... which is to say, he won't beat you with his power based speed.  Amobi is more likely to out think you and use his solid technique to beat you off the snap.    That said, Amobi definately has the potential to be a contributing factor on a dominant D-Line. We just need one more impact edge rusher.  

Just one more...

Shakin 'em off one win at a time... In Schaub we trust.
