On WFAN: Antrel Rolle Discusses Giants' Woes
NEW YORK (WFAN/AP) -- Giants safety Antrel Rolle joined WFAN's Benigno & Roberts on the heels of Sunday's disappointing loss to the Tennessee Titans.
New York has taken criticism for their sloppy play Sunday against the Titans. There were 11 penalties against the Giants, five of which were 15-yard personal fouls. The Giants also turned over the ball in key situations, dropped a handful of passes in the open field, and had a difficult time on special teams.
"I don't feel like the game was so undisciplined," Rolle said. "Sometimes guys lose themselves in the football game, whether it's for the good or for the bad."
"I think everyone is overreacting to the fact that we got 5 personal fouls. Will it happen again? I don't know."

Coach Tom Coughlin has also taken heat from fans, some who believe Coughlin has lost control of the Giants. Rolle weighed in on the topic.
"Coach Coughlin can only control so much," said Big Blue's safety. "We have to be held accountable for our own actions."
As for this week's upcoming match up against the 3-0 Chicago Bears?
"Before we can worry about the Bears or anyone else, we have to come together as the Giants."
Rolle joined Joe & Evan just one week after making headlines for criticizing the Giants on WFAN.
"I made that remark last week based on what I was feeling," Rolle said. "It was something I just wasn't used to."
"I have to apologize for putting that out there... I didn't mean to bash the coach or bash the team. If I've got to be there 4 hours before the game, I'll be there 4 hours before the game."
