The Reason We Were Able To Beat Carolina...

Good follow-up comments by CaptainAmerica from a sports forum:

...Parcells said it right after the game that day. He told the media that on Monday morning of that week he instructed Zimmer that "Steve Smith will not beat us". Parcells with the obvious help of his staff then went out and crafted an excellent game-plan to totally shut down and frustrate one of the best WRs in the game today.Special props to Newman for everything he did in that game to shut Smith down with some help from the rest of our defense.That performance should be considered one of the best defensive game plans and executions of the year, especially when you see how Smith torched the so-called "GREAT" Bears defense today.I get frustrated with Parcells at times, but one thing you can't ever deny with him...The Man knows defense. I can't wait to see our unit next year as the young guys and some more new additions mature and really crank up the pressure!!
