    David Diehl announces retirement

    New York Giants offensive lineman David Diehl announced his retirement Friday.

    Diehl, 33, spent his entire 11-year career with the Giants after being selected in the fifth round of the 2003 draft.

    "I've accomplished everything I could possibly dream of as a football player," Diehl said. "If in 2003, anyone would have said that Dave Diehl, a fifth-round draft pick out of Illinois, would win two Super Bowls, play in the Pro Bowl and win every single Giant award possible, people would have said you're crazy. I have a lot to be proud of."

    Diehl was known for his versatility and toughness in a career that saw him miss just 12 games. He started at right tackle and right guard this season and played every position along the line except center in his tenure with the team.

    The Giants' offensive line is expected to receive a major overhaul after a terrible 2013. The team ranked 29th in rushing at 83.3 yards per game and gave up 40 sacks, twice as many as in 2012.

    It’s been a busy week for trades in the NFL and another trade appears on the verge of completion.

    According to Jay Glazer of FOXSports.com, the New York Giants are closing in on a deal to acquire linebacker Jon Beason from the Carolina Panthers for a late-round draft pick.

    A league source tells PFT that Beason is traveling to New York on Friday with the deal hinging on Beason passing a physical with the Giants.

    Beason started the first two games of the season for the Panthers before being replaced by former Giants’ linebacker Chase Blackburn for Carolina’s Week 3 matchup with the Giants. Beason hasn’t appeared to be fully healthy this season but the Giants are desperate for help on defense. The physical won’t be just a token part of the deal as Beason is coming off micro-fracture knee surgery last year.

    The irony in the move is the Giants elected not to bring back Blackburn this offseason, who played his first eight seasons in New York. Now the Giants could be trading for the guy Blackburn beat out for a job.

    You're talking about AP, right? Yeah; I agree. I don't like that, even from AP. I generally think he's a great guy but sometimes he says things that are stupid or misplaced.

    Yeah, cause everyone knows what he did was anything short of remarkable. The type of injury, the normal time of rehab, and how frequent he's been injured through his career made what he did this year truly exceptional. But let us as fans, and the media, and your fellow NFL collegues praise you, and say you deserve it. Have a little sense of humbleness. That's all I'm asking. I believe they both should've shared the award for both MVP and comeback player. Just my opinion tho

    :Giants: David Wilson/Andre Brown duo is born. true Thunder and Lightning. Also have to throw Reuben Randle at WR. Last game of the season he had 3 TD's in the 1st half, granted it was versus the Eagles.

     

    :Bucs: I think Josh Freeman is on the hot seat right now. I think he comes up big with a breakout year.

     

    :Seahawks: Golden Tate will become a top 10 WR imo this year.

     

     

    Tons more I can't think of right now

    Amidst all this, how about David Wilson? Kid raked in around 200 yards on kick returns. Every time he got it, I was like "Oh, shit, this is it."

    Yeah, he looked good out there on ST, but he needs to learn how to be a better RB still. Pass protections is still shaky

    Eli would have thrown it away before he'd ever gotten sacked. Come on, now. You and I know. Giants fans know. Not that I can criticize Tom Coughlin openly since he's a 2 time Super Bowl winner, but that was the wrong call in that situation. Laurence Tynes might be somewhat dependable, but never would I trust him with a kick that long.

    Many things went wrong. The Eli pick was an ill-advised pass into double coverage in the red zone, Eli's bad pass to Barden that basically forced him to pass interfere their CB, and even to pass in that situation with 36 secs on the 26 yard line when all they needed was to do one last run the center the ball for a kicker who had made every kick this season. Tom know's he screwed up. He over thought the situation and is now paying the price for it. Still, after pretty much being forced to punt every drive early on, the Eagles looked really good taking the ball down the field for a score every drive after. Granted mainly FG's but still points. They deserved the win for sure, sad to say for me, but true.

    What was you guys favorite play from the 2011 season?

     

    I'll throw a couple up here from Carolina games, Newton's first TD pass made me think maybe we had something special here:

     

     

    This play, though, was simply incredible. It doesn't result in a TD, it's a simple 25-yard QB run on 3rd and 9 against the Redskins, but... well, just watch it. I think this one has to be my favorite play.

    Victor Cruz's 99-yard TD in a crucial part of the game versus the Jets.

    :Giants: at :Packers:

     

    :Broncos: at :Ravens: (yes I did, lol)

     

    :Packers: vs :Ravens:

     

    :Packers: win, imo... I think if they see the G-Men again in the playoffs they are going to get their revenge in a double digit win. Ravens don't have the offense to match the Packers, and the Ravens defense is ageing

    I know I threw a lot of options on there, but I just wanted to see where everyone stood on this topic. On that list are the underachieving teams from last year, but as we all know a new season means that can all change for some teams. So who do you think will be the worst this upcoming season? My choice is an obvious one. The :Rams:. They lost the defensive coach indefiantly, and Sam Bradford doesn't have much weapons other then Stephen Jackson, and a weak o-line.
