With the New York Giants moving on from their 33-18 loss to the New Orleans Saints on Sunday Authentic Ray-Ray Armstrong Jersey , the team looks to move forward and set focus on the Carolina Panthers. With the Giants making the move down to Charlotte for the weekend matchup, Panthers head coach Ron Rivera spoke with the media on Wednesday about Big Blue. Let’s take a look at some takeaways from his time with the media. On what he has seen out of the Giants offense and whether he expects to seen anything different Sunday...“I don’t necessarily think that,” Rivera said. “I’m not going to see anything different, because you’re going to game plan how you think you can best attack a team, so that’d be up to Pat. But looking at what they’re doing right now, there’s some good things going on. I think this is a team that’s trying to find itself, they’ve had some injuries, they’ve had some players they’ve had to move around. I know last week they didn’t have Evan Engram, who I think is a big part of what they want to do, so again I think it’s a good football team that’s finding itself. You’ve got a new head coach with new philosophies, new ideas, and you’ve got some new players in key spots. I like who they have, I think they’re a very talented football team, I’ll tell you that right now. It’s just a matter of time before they put it all together and they’re the type of football team that, believe me, people are going to hear from.”On what Giants general manager Dave Gettleman means to him...“I really appreciated working with Dave,” Rivera said. “I like who he is as a person and as a scout. He really understands and knows players, he came in with the philosophy of we were going to bring in big guys up front because they allow you to compete, and it worked for us, it worked very well for us. We’re still seeing the aftereffects of the players he brought in. It was a very positive situation, I really enjoyed working with him. He’s a northeast guy and you can feel it when dealing with him. The one thing with Dave, Dave was always upfront, a straight shooter www.newyorkgiantsteamonline.com , very honest – brutally honest, almost to a fault – but he was a lot of fun to be around.”On what he has seen out of quarterback Eli Manning this year and whether he seems like the same quarterback he has seen in the past...“Yes I do, it’s just throwing different route combinations, that’s pretty much it,” Rivera said. “The dude – you’re talking about a two-time Super Bowl MVP. There’s something about your game that’s special, and I think he’s a special player. Again, as I said, new offense and they’re learning things, they’re learning how to play it, it takes a little bit of time, you don’t just plug in and say OK this is it. They’ve got to understand each other’s philosophy, they’ve got to understand what the other players are doing. That’s a lot to learn when you install a new offense, but I still see the same guy – good decision maker, good arm, and he’s a winner. Believe me, we’re not taking these guys lightly. This football team’s got way too much talent, but again, like I said, they’re still growing.”About former coaches and players being on the other side of the field...“Like I say, we know that they know that I know that you know that he knows, so we’ll go from there,” Rivera said. “It’s different. They’re in a different environment with different players, we have different players. It’s a different environment. We’ll see how it goes though New York Giants T-Shirt , but the only thing you’re familiar about is who they are as people and that’s the most important thing.”After Brett Jones, who else can the Giants trade? Now that the New York Giants have traded backup center Brett Jones to the Minnesota Vikings, giving themselves $2.914 million in desperately-needed salary cap relief, I would love to give you a list of other players the Giants could trade as they set their 53-man roster.In fact, that’s what I sat down to do. Problem is, I can’t. There is no list. The Giants parted ways with Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie in the offseason. They shed the contract of Jason Pierre-Paul via trade, which I thought was an excellent move.John Jerry? Please. After Saturday’s roster cuts there are going to be a plethora of veteran guards of Jerry’s ilk on the market. I seriously doubt anyone is going to trade for Jerry and take on the remaining $1.575 million of his deal, a number provided by Jason Fitzgerald of Over The Cap. Per Fitzgerald, that includes Jerry’s $1.075 base salary and up to $500,000 in per game bonuses. OTC’s database shows that the Giants can save $1.075 million by cutting him, but they would still be on the hook for $2.525 million in dead money.Roger Lewis Jr.? Yes, he had 36 catches last season. Like Jerry, though, there will be receivers like, or better, than Lewis available via waivers or free agency after Saturday.You might wish someone would, but no one is trading for the contracts of Jonathan Stewart or Patrick Omameh. Ereck Flowers? You might want him gone, but the Giants don’t have a better option at right tackle.Maybe the Giants won’t have roster room for both Robert Thomas and A.J. Francis. Highly unlikely, though, that any backup defensive tackle has trade value. Andrew Adams or William Gay. Nada. Mark Herzlich or Calvin Munson? Seriously?Unless GM Dave Gettleman can pull a rabbit out of a hat, it doesn’t really look like the Giantshave many more pieces they would be willing to trade — and actually able to get a return for.
