be a fit for the New York Giants? Allen Kenney of SB Nation’s Oklahoma Sooners website Crimson and Cream Machine and the Blatant Homerism podcast joins ‘Valentine’s Views’ to discuss the Heisman Trophy-winning quarterback.Kenney told Big Blue View that “clearly
Eli Manning Jerseys Stitched , football is Kyler Murray’s first love.”Here are some of the other topics we discussed.Are Murray’s skills transferable to the NFL?“I always worry about the size when it comes to guys like that. I would have said the same thing about Baker Mayfield coming out of Oklahoma last year. You worry about things like can he see over the line, can he see in the pocket, how likely is it that his throws are going to be getting tipped or batted at the line. On top of that just his size in general, how can he handle the physical punishment,” Kenney said.“I think that the questions about his ability to transfer all those skills over the NFL are very legitimate.”On the other hand ...“You don’t also see quarterback prospects with his athleticism, his arm strength, his quickness, his speed out there very often. So, is it worth the risk? I think if you’re a quarterback-needy team, yeah.”Will Murray be successful in the NFL?“My knee-jerk response to that question is no
Youth Odell Beckham Jerseys , but that’s just because so few NFL quarterbacks actually make it. That would be me just kind of playing the numbers, it’s not necessarily a reflection of how I feel about Murray as a prospect. I’m still not entirely sure the NFL is ready to make the best use of his talents,” Kenney said.“It’s not really a question of whether or not Murray can do it. It’s just hard to find the right situation for a quarterback anymore in the NFL to really thrive .. it’s more a crap shoot.”Could the Giants be the right fit?“Clearly there is a high risk-reward possibility here,” Kenney said. “The one thing that would give me a lot of confidence about the Giants taking him is that I think a lot of [Pat] Shurmur and his ability as you mentioned to groom and develop quarterbacks. From that standpoint that seems like it would be a pretty good situation for him.”Listen to the full show below.Where to subscribeYou can find and subscribe to Big Blue View Radio on the show’s home page.

Heart. Energy. Big downfield throws and some final drive magic from Eli Manning. Odell Beckham Jr. finally getting into the end zone. Saquon Barkley scoring twice. Fighting back from a 27-16 fourth-quarter deficit. Eclipsing the 30-point mark for the first time in 38 games.Sunday’s game against the Carolina Panthers had everything the New York Giants could have wanted. Except for the victory they so desperately needed.What is it about the Giants and the bad karma of 60+ yard game-ending field goals? In Week 3 of 2017, Jake Elliott of the Philadelphia Eagles beat the Giants with a 61-yarder as time expired. Sunday, Graham Gano drove a dagger into their season with a 63-yarder as time expired that sent the 1-4 Giants to a 33-31 defeat.An angry, raw day for the GiantsBeckham’s comments to ESPN reporter Josina Anderson, aired to a national TV audience and made with rapper L’il Wayne along for the ride, cut the Giants open. The remarks first surfaced on Friday
Odell Beckham Jerseys Stitched , and they caused coach Pat Shurmur to make Beckham apologize to the team.Shurmur had to be wounded by Beckham’s decision to air his gripes the way he did. The coach has invested tons of time and effort into building a relationship with Beckham, something neither Tom Coughlin nor Ben McAdoo were able to do. Until Friday, all signs were that it had worked. Shurmur had every right to be “livid” with Beckham, as a FOX Sports report indicated was the case.The bleeding hadn’t stopped after the game, something made obvious by the challenging, emotional tone of his post-game remarks. The way the game unfolded didn’t stanch the wound. It pretty much just ripped it open wider, or opened up a whole bunch of new wounds.The phantom unnecessary roughness call on Landon Collins was perhaps the game-changing play. Instead of a Carolina punt, the Panthers were gifted a first down at the Giants’ 44-yard line and turned it into a touchdown that gave them a 26-17 lead with less that 12 minutes to play. Shurmur said he saw Collins “making a play on the ball with no attempt, no attempt to target the receiver.” Several Giants players will be sure to see the NFL lighten their wallets this week after their angry reactions, especially Damon Harrison
Color Rush Ryan Connelly Jersey , who said the Giants had the win “stolen” from them.The questionable giving of a first down to Carolina running back Christian McCaffrey on a third-and-1 at the Giants’ 46-yard line, and the replay booth’s failure to stop the action and review it, was another wound-inducing officiating blunder.That didn’t end up changing the distance of the kick, but the Panthers — out of timeouts — were gifted a first down with 12 seconds left and could then control the clock rather than having to rush Gano onto the field for a harried kick in the waning seconds likely made a huge difference.The gut punch of watching Gano’s kick, which tied the NFL record for the longest game-winning kick ever, sail through the uprights, was just final cruel knife twist for the Giants. But, was it a mortal blow?The Giants are 1-4. They have to regroup quickly and get ready for a Thursday Night Football game against the Super Bowl champion Philadelphia Eagles at MetLife Stadium.When the Giants took a similar gut punch last season, losing to the Eagles on a 61-yard game-ending field goal by Jake Elliott after staging a furious fourth-quarter rally, you could tell from the blank faces and the beaten voices in the post-game locker room that the season was over. There was no anger. There was just shock. And resignation.After that
Youth Ryan Connelly Jersey , the season — as all Giants fans know — went all the way off the rails.Will that happen this time?I don’t think so. The Giants are angry now. Not shocked and resigned.They hurt themselves in a lot of ways on Sunday. Beckham wounded them with his words. Manning threw two interceptions before rediscovering the late-game magic that once was routine, throwing two touchdown passes in the final 8:53 and giving the Giants a chance to win. Beckham messed up a punt that cost the Giants a touchdown and he dropped a fourth-and-3 pass that cost them an early scoring opportunity. Saquon Barkley had runs of 30 and 20 yards, yet somehow managed only 48 total rushing yards on 15 carries. The pass rush was mostly non-existent. The tackling was often shoddy. A lot of good things happened, though. The best thing was that the Giants, as Shurmur said, “played hard” and “played tough.”They kept going. Despite falling behind 17-3. Despite the special teams’ mistakes. Despite the two second-half interceptions. Despite losing a fumble recovery because Curtis Riley was out of bounds. Despite their own all-too-apparent shortcomings. Despite the poor work by the officials. The Giants made plays. They dug deep into the playbook for a home run pass from Beckham to Barkley. Despite the awful run-blocking they gave the ball to Barkley often enough for him to create a couple of spectacular runs. They attacked down the field on offense. They kept working on defense, kept trying to hold Carolina at bay. They didn’t pack it in when it was 26-17 and the game looked lost.I have no idea what the rest of the season will be like for the Giants. Maybe they are on their way to another 3-13 season. Maybe they can use their anger, whether it’s at Beckham, the officials, the football Gods who control 60-yard field goals
Womens Ryan Connelly Jersey , the media, the schedule-makers for making them play the Eagles on short rest, as a springboard to better results over the final 11 games.I do know, however, that I like these angry 2018 Giants have a better chance of getting things right before the season ends the 2017 version of the Giants ever had.
