Giants Reduce Garcia’s Options


Q: Roy or Ira, with the season over, why is it that it doesn’t seem the offensive game plan changes from week to week? I understand you play to your strengths but you should also try to exploit the other team’s weaknesses. The Giants were weak in the mid-range area of 15-25 yards and the Bucs rarely tried this area. Everything was short or long.—Joseph C. White, Port Charlotte

A: With Galloway so ineffective, the Giants were able to constrict the field Sunday and reduce Garcia’s options. When Galloway flashes his speed, it opens up the rest of the field for the tight ends, backs and Hilliard on those mid-range slants. New York’s defense dictated to Tampa and that’s why the Bucs looked so feeble after the first quarter.

Actually it looked as though the G-men had their safeties squatting on those 15-25yd routes. I did notice Alex Smith open on so seem routes, but it never seemed Garcia had the time to find him. What with Trueblood getting his jock handed to him (at least it was a HOF player doing it to him :-p ).
