The last time the Chargers came to New York the result was the infamous “ Snowball Game ”. While there is no snow in the forecast, Giants fans are in an ugly mood, thanks to a three-game losing streak. In many ways this team is facing its first real crisis point since Week 15 in 2007 when they had to beat the Bills to make the playoffs. Tom Coughlin recognizes this and hoping to instill...

Well we no longer have to complain about the poor job safety C.C. Brown is doing for the Giants. The team benched Brown in favor of former Packers safety Aaron Rouse, who was recently released by Green Bay and signed by the Giants. Hopefully Rouse will make the plays that Brown has been unable to make [...]

C.C. Brown told Jenny Vrentas Thursday it was his fault DeSean Jackson got wide open for a 54-yard TD. The Giants’ coaches apparently agreed. Aaron Rouse, not Brown, was working with the first-team defense during the portion of Friday’s practice that was open to the media. That’s a pretty good indication Rouse has supplanted Brown as the Giants’ starting safety. The coaches...

This was one play that C.C. Brown read perfectly. The Giants’ much-maligned safety said he had a feeling Tom Coughlin was pondering a switch in the starting lineup. He knew it from the moment the Giants’ 40-17 loss in Philadelphia was over. “I mean, I pretty much knew after the game there was going to be a switch somewhere,” he said. “In this business if you’re...

It looks like you won’t have C.C. Brown to kick around anymore. Though Tom Coughlin has not announced anything official, it appears he has made a much-anticipated change in his defensive lineup. Brown, the much-maligned starting safety, was running with the second team during the portion of practice open to the media today. He was replaced on the first team by third-year pro Aaron Rouse. That’s...

Brown , Nick Ferguson , Dominique Barber and John Busing are just some of the names who came and didn't work out at the spot. But something odd has happened this season. Houston seems to have finally found someone...

Eight games into the season, there’s only one thing anyone can say about the Giants with any conviction: They desperately need the bye week. I’ve been around losing teams before, but I don’t know if I’ve ever seen a group less sure exactly why they’re losing. They haven’t experienced a slide like this since 2006, before most of them were even here, and they certainly...

Hakeem Nicks The Giants will try and right the ship after last week’s humiliation at the hands of the Saints when they face the defending NFC champs, Arizona, on Sunday night. Arizona has a dangerous passing game, with three very good wide receivers in Larry Fitzgerald, Anquan Bolden and Steve Breaston, but there running game has been mediocre at best. That should allow the Giants to put more...
