Moving forward, the Giants, who will work on correcting the various breakdowns in their game as they get ready for their home opener against the Cardinals on Sunday, believe they have to have a greater sense of resilience, especially <a href=http://www.getrecd.com/news/Gucci-Outlet-Online-Outlet-Store-Cheap-Shoes-Sandals.html>Gucci Sandals</a> when things don't go their way. To be totally honest with you, yeah. I'd be lying if I didn't say that was a concern, safety Antrel Rolle said during his weekly radio segment with WFAN Radio when asked if he thought some guys might be fearing a repeat of last year's rough beginning.
