Observation Concerning Tiki Barber

2MinsToPost · #1 01-07-2007, 08:19 PM

Every time the camera panned him he was smiling, leading, tied or trailing. I question his smiling when the team he is playing on is trailing in the 4th quarter.

If you were him, would you want to have to work one more week? Of course hes smiling, hes set for life. One less game means one less chance of getting hurt. The guy is happier than all the Eagles put together right now. Its just a business. Just business.

I'm a Giants fan and was a big Tiki fan before tonight. . . It was really clear that he couldn't care less whether they won or lost.

I don't know about that, he played his game tonight.

Yes. Hes very good. A bit overrated, but still very good at what he does.

He is also the only reason you guys were in the playoffs to begin with

Bingo.

Giants have a lot of problems beginning with the coach and QB.

Emphasis on QB. Hes anything but a leader. Now Tom Brady is a leader. Helps having Bellichick as a coach but that guy could win anywhere.

I'm not saying he didn't try or didn't play hard. . . some great players don't need to turn it on 100% to be effective. . . but he wasn't exactly in to the game on the sidelines or behind his teammates. Atleast next year Jacobs, who does play with some fire, will get many more carries.

i don't know about that? tiki had 26 carries for 137 yds. the giants only rushed for 151 yds as a team. i'd say tiki put in a pretty nice days work.

tiki and the giants were in the game til the last drive. win or lose, he's a happy guy. it's a shame he's hanging up the cleats, he had a pretty good season-doesn't seem to have lost a step.
on to bigger and better for mr. barber.

The Eagles will soar over Da Bears

New Orleans shows the Seahawks what real rain is

The Ravens scare the Colts into submission....

Mr Brady shows LT who the real MVP is. Who needs the ProBowl when your bound for the Super Bowl

Eagles and Patriots in the rematch sans TO.....

These teams are not playing each other this weekend. Bears play Seahawks and Saints play Eagles.

if the defense plays like they did saturday they stand a chance. if peyton throw 2 or more interceptions game over in my opinion

Danzig · #13 01-08-2007, 10:58 AM

i haven't seen baltimore play this year, an unknown quantity to me. hopefully these teams start playing like they want to win!! the playoff games this wknd looked like a lesson in ineptitude.

I have seen every Ravens game this year. They lost to Denver in a nightgame in a rain/snow storm early in the year, then lost the next week to the Panthers (McNair injured in the 1st series, did not return), and lost the Bengals. I think they are the best team in the league and like someone said earlier..if Manning throws three interceptions this week game over. Because the defense will score. I'm just glad it's in Baltimore and not the dome. Ravens win Saturday and then I hate to say it cuz I can't stand Belichik, but I hope the Pats knock the Chargers off and then the conference championship will be in Baltimore. Of course if the Colts win, I'm pulling hard for the Chargers.
