New York Giants middle linebacker Antonio Pierce, speaking during a Sirius NFL Radio interview conducted Tuesday by myself and retired NFL head coach Marty Schottenheimer, had some harsh words for the Oakland franchise after his team's 44-7 home rout last Sunday. Pierce said the Raiders game felt more like a "scrimmage" than regular-season contest. And while the topic wasn't discussed openly, Pierce said a confident Giants roster was well aware that ailing quarterback Eli Manning (heel) could get a break the quicker New York took a commanding lead. Manning was already on the bench with the Giants ahead at halftime, 31-7. "I do not like knocking teams. But right now, they're struggling. We're playing that game the other day and, honestly, it felt like a scrimmage, like a practice. It felt like we were going against our offense (in a controlled setting) as far as the tempo."

Damn... Ouch, I know some of you love it to hate on them, but I hate how bad teams like Oakland are. We have so many crapty teams in the league right now... it's disgusting.
So do the eagles have a scrimmage this week? lol I just love how cocky they are i cant wait to bring them down to earth :icon_cool:
The 49ers allowed the Falcons to practice against them. Since Roddy White was sucking butt this year he paid Singletary to allow him a career performance. It happens.....
New York certainly isn't big on linebacker humility these days is it. Pierce shouldn't have said that tho, I'm sure Coach Coughlin didn't appreciate it.
I agree its classless really. Any player could say this about a blow out win but dont cause they have clbutt.
It's classless? All he was saying is the Raiders showed no emotion and no intentions of even attempting to win. That's far from classless. You're taking it way out of context my friend.
No need to call them out on it. Its kind of hard to show emotion when you getting killed by the end of the first q. **********Automerged Doublepost********** I did read it and he says he doesent like knocking teams but does it. Why just shut up and leave them alone.
baskett just wants it to be something it's not *baskett puts fingers in ears* LALlalallalalallalalLALALallaALla
