Every Giants fan waking up this morning should be satisfied with last nights performance. The offense looked strong, the running game hasn't missed a beat and the Giants may have the deepest team in the NFL. Below are the plays that stood out to me in this game.

PLAYER NOTES

- WR Manningham had a very nice punt return. He showed good vision and quickness to get up field.

- DE Osi Umenyiora is back, he looked like he has not even missed a beat from being out last season. Great sack and FF by blowing right past the o-lineman.

- WR Manninghan had a nice 10 yd catch on a 3rd and 5 from Manning. But it was called back due to a penalty on Kareem Mckenzie.

- HB Jacobs had a nice catch out the back field to gain about 10 yds for a first down. This may be a sign he has improved his pass catching. We will have to wait and see.

- HB Jacobs burst through the line for a 22 yd run. All in all Jacobs looks good and ready to roll.

- WR Hixon caught a WR screen and had a nice 18 yard gain. Showed great focus and burst up the field.

- HB Bradshaw scored on a 19 yd run. Great burst and strength. He looks like the Bradshaw that led the Giants in rushing when they won the Super Bowl.

- WR Sinorice Moss had a very nice catch over the middle for a 9 yd gain and a first down. I would like to see him do this all season out of the slot.

- QB David Carr ran the ball for a 13 yd gain that kept a drive going. He is a very good QB that can keep plays going with his legs.

- K Tynes missed a 43 yd FG. Here comes Mr. Inconsistent. There is no reason to miss a 43 yd FG. The Giants will need to make an upgrade at kicker sometime in the future.

- LB Gerris Wilkinson had a nice burst into the back field to slow down the Carolina HB and stop him a yd short of a first down. If he stays healthy he will be a great contributor on this defense.

- CB Stoney Woodson took advantage of a tipped ball and made a nice INT. Giants have great depth at CB.

- DE Maurice Evans had a very nice sack and FF. He looked like Osi for a minute.

- HB Danny Ware, had a great catch and run for a 22 yd TD on a screen pass. Once again Danny Ware has shown he can play and that he belongs in the NFL.

- QB Andre Woodson, threw an INT by forcing a pass into coverage. Bad decision. Not good for his case to stick on the roster.

- WR Ramses Barden, made a nice 20 yd catch on a 3rd and long play. If he keeps catching the ball, he may make a nice impact this season.

- LB Clint Sintim, sack and FF, who didn't have one in this game? Shows just how deep the Giants are with pass rushers.

- HB Allen Patrick, Showed he may be the guy for that #4 HB spot with a nice 29 yd run.

- K Tynes, makes a 46 yd FG, go figure, he made one.

- WR Hakeem Nicks, Made a nice 9 yd catch for a 1st down. He bobbled the ball because the defender got a hand on it. But he showed great concentration and hauled it in.

- DE Tommy Hill, Made a great play with an INT for a TD to win the game.

OTHER NOTES

- Jerry Reese has stacked this team with depth (I will elaborate more in a later post)

- Danny Ware Moved the chains well.

- Feagles is ageless, after 22 yrs he can still stick the opponent well inside the 20.

- O-line might be the only position where depth might be a concern.

- Great challenge by Coughlin on that Goodson fumble. It was clearly a fumble.

- What a great ending to a game, even though it was only preseason. I was dreading a preseason OT game.
