After his breakout year in 2011, Victor Cruz followed up in 2012 with another 1,000+yd receiving effort, and showed that he was not a flash in the pan.
i was at the game with the very first clip... can't even begin to describe how fast that guy is live, you can't tell on the video... so pumped for him to get back on the field next year
Yeah well we are fortunate with mcadoos offensive style that eli doesnt need as much he has adjusted to the fact the are oline is terrible and the routes are made so he can release the ball quicker and now he throws a lot more in the shotgun and also I do agree with you we still need a better oline
Issue is you invest in the units that will as a whole allow your game to be much better. When Eli had a good line he still was turning the ball over. Here he had a great oline and okay run game and a defense that can prevent TOP usage but his turnovers and inability to be consistent hurt them. You don't want to invest an extra 10 mill on the line then 2 for Tight end and 4 for a #3. WR to tighten the offense only to go from 19 PPG to 24 PPG. When your QB or symmetry of offense start clicking and your roster moves guarantee dominance , why give Eli a better Oline if your receiving Corp is getting open and he's horrible under 3.5 seconds? If he's bad teams gonna blitz him and if he turns the ball over they won't stop pressuring him You only improve the line when the investment is to protect an investment or the correlation to a better offense is very direct and very high . Otherwise you put your money in other spots until other things make the offense better, such as camp workouts and experience and coaching schemes .
Personally, I give more credit to this guy than Odell Beckham. Beckham is a very great player I admit that, but Cruz tried much harder than him. First Cruz was undrafted, unlike Odell who was first round draft and everyone already got high expectation for him. Second, personally i think Odell is a more talented receiver. I bet Cruz worked way harder than Odell in order to be like that. Last, don't forget what Cruz did in 2011 regular season, the season we won the super bowl. He averaged 96 yards each game and total 1536 yards and that is the Giants single season record. Odell haven't beat that yet. I miss Cruz. Please comeback like your 2011 and 2012 season Cruz. Pair up with Odell, you guys will NEVER be stopped!
This Highlight video made me feel like i was actually watching football again with the real NFL announcers. instead of some shitty rap song, Great video bro.
Odj is better because he's on the outside going up against the top corners and safeties in the league tougher catches,he's the go to guy the gamebreaker who is expected to keep you in the game and win games exp.jerry rice randy moss t.o. Brandon Marshall Steve smith Larry Fitzgerald all number one receivers or number two sometimes
That's why he was drafted in the first rd 10th best football player in general in the draft,when you build around a player like this,they called them complimentary players
Oh boy that is a toughie. Odell Beckham Jr does have one of the strongest hands in the NFL.. Victor Cruz is a very good slot receiver...they are both really good route runners...both are dynamic.... Odell Beckham Jr is very quick... I'll say Victor Cruz is better since he has more experience than Odell Beckham Jr.
Yeah he maximizes the slot position makin it easier for Eli to go against a nobody nickel corner, but if he was on the outside with that same consistency as x or z receiver Odj would be in the slot.And due to injury concerns the giants surely protected themself, boy skilled offensive free agent players are curse
This offseason we're either gonna pick up a guy like Mohammad Sanu / similar or use a 2-3rd rounder so we have a reliable WR2 with cruz hopefully in the slot....if that dosen't happen he will get a team friendly deal. The problem with him is that he is just on and off...hes not reliable and thats what you need in a WR2
5 yr 43 million contract heading Victor's way good for him. Hopefully he will continue to contribute for my Giants b/c we all know relying on Nicks to stay healthy is not exactly the best situation. DONT get me wrong Nicks is awesome, in fact i think he's more talented than Cruz, but his ability to stay healthy scares me. Lets bring the SB back to NY BABY!!
1-Calvin Johnson 2- Josh Gordon 3- Antonio Brown 4- Julio Jones 5- Victor Cruz/Dez Bryant 6- Larry Fitzgerald 7- Reggie Wayne 8- AJ Green 9- Andre Johnson 10- Demaryius Thomas
iCarolinaGold Reggie and Cruz yes they shouldn't be as well as Josh Gordon, lol Andre he's a top 10, future hall of famer, and plays with shitty QBs , so no stfu.
Edleman is pretty underated. his routes are prefect and he can hit and take huge hits and keep it together. He deserves a spot in the top ten. His punt returns are wicked pissa.
Giants offense was never the same after the organization made Coughlin fire Kevin Gilbride. The points went downhill fast, not his fault the new receivers were too stupid to run his playbook and the offensive line shit the bed
Too many option routes in that system which lead to miscommunication and Ints . Eli had his best TD Int Ratio in another System anyways. Giants kept trying to band aide the O Line has still been a revolving door.
Wheres a list of some Fallen Wrs of the giants Steve Smith, Hakeem nicks, Mario manningham, plaxico burress. Somone of the name Victor Cruz or Odell Beckham will be next
yeah...on 0:08 he should have popped Sensabaugh in the chest instead of going out of bounds..he could have picked up a few more yards or more, knowing Sensabaugh's tackling ability
i'm even okay with it if they play a song the whole time, but fade it out when the announcers come on. but all those videos with a song blaring over it suck ass.
Also you said that the Giants stole the nickname Big Blue but then you said we've been around 30 years longer. Your comments contradict yourself making you look stupid
A great highlight video that's not ruined by terrible music.
Favorite player of all time
I love how opposing teams fans still chanted CRUUUUZZZ
i was at the game with the very first clip... can't even begin to describe how fast that guy is live, you can't tell on the video... so pumped for him to get back on the field next year
Wish the Giants still played like this
10-4
SHITTY TEAMS THEY PLAYED
a cheese Even the 13-3 cowboys who they swept.
Seriously.
for real.
I miss Cruz 😢😢😢😢😢 can't wait till he comes back
Me to
He will be back. If you follow his instagram, he looks close to if not 100% and he will be ready for training camp
Hi, I give out L's good stuff
Zega Ghxst f u
Back when we had an offensive line..... I still believe in # 10 we gotta protect him
Yeah well we are fortunate with mcadoos offensive style that eli doesnt need as much he has adjusted to the fact the are oline is terrible and the routes are made so he can release the ball quicker and now he throws a lot more in the shotgun and also I do agree with you we still need a better oline
+Kyle Cushing he doesnt need as much time
Issue is you invest in the units that will as a whole allow your game to be much better. When Eli had a good line he still was turning the ball over. Here he had a great oline and okay run game and a defense that can prevent TOP usage but his turnovers and inability to be consistent hurt them.

Anyone here in 2020 coming back to reminisce on when we were good?
Those were the days
Victor Cruz was the man, What a shame he had all those knee injuries that ended a great career.
This guy is a monster!!! Can't wait to see him and Odell on the field at the same time! 2 big times receivers
Cruz and Beckham together. Giants have a potential to dominate next year on offense.
if cruz some how gets back to this form this year OMG that movie Tom Brady's Fucked 3 is coming out in February!!!
Sucks to see him hurt but hes faced plenty of adversity to make it where he is now.keep ur head up Vic!
Victor Cruz is the best football player
I don't care about last year. This guy is the best slot receiver in the game!
True
When he's healthy yes , when 80% or less nope
Definitely not
Personally, I give more credit to this guy than Odell Beckham. Beckham is a very great player I admit that, but Cruz tried much harder than him. First Cruz was undrafted, unlike Odell who was first round draft and everyone already got high expectation for him. Second, personally i think Odell is a more talented receiver.

Pair up with Odell, you guys will NEVER be stopped!
Please make more giants highlights from this season!!! You're so good!!!
2:01 This is where Josh Norman's problems with Giants receivers started
He deserves another good season
Victor Cruz is CLUTCH! He plays the WR position so well and that's why I also pick him as my #1 WR in Madden all the time now!
I am watching this in August of 2022. My how things have changed for the Giants.
Finally a highlights video without a song. I like hearing the action
Can't wait for Victor Cruz and Odell Beckham Jr to be playing together
Yeah fr I can’t wait also
Get well soon Cruz!
wow, Eli was a great passer
These were the best days , can't wait to see my boo Cruz on back on the game😚😋
Thanks for the show and Great job on the clips dawg.
go giants you are awesome v cruz keep the highlights comeing
You were a great receiver in your prime, I hope you enjoy retirement. Sad to see a great talent ruined by injuries :/
-Chargers fan
Cruz, Beckham and Manning... Cant wait for the next season!
hes awesome haters can keep hating
Cruz is in my top 10 wide receivers
What about Odell Beckham jr?
Daniel Alibrandi just finished his rookie season
Eli to Cruz Vs Jets & Eli to Cruz Vs Redskins are my favorite plays over the last two seasons, we gotta pay the man!
Those passes were on the money. Eli was a he'll of a qb. His o line was shit his last 10 years.
great year from vic. He proved he was no fluke. One of my fav players
all of these Cruz chants! he better do great this season
Best wide out in my eyes. Odell is Great but Vic is something special you can't compare them 2 different players.
Can U make Odell Beckham highlights like this just like it with the audio no music I want to hear the commentary like this one
The Giants had one hell of a passing attack that season. Hope we get a repeat this season, cause Eli has some weapons.
3, he was IR'd his rookie season. Last season, super bowl season, and then his ir'd rookie year.
Cruz should be in the hall of fame
This Highlight video made me feel like i was actually watching football again with the real NFL announcers. instead of some shitty rap song, Great video bro.
@Fernandez. I didn't mean that he should be right now I mean he should be in the future. He is a great player and I Think he will have a great future
CRUUUUUUUUUUUUZZZZZZZ !!!
Man you are the best...
Another good one. Can you make a antrel rolle highlights
damn bring back that old beast cruz i believe that obj is eli manning main target smh cruz aint done yet i know cruz will prove that he still the best
To me I think it's over all those injuries messed up his talent, he's the derrick rose of football.
So who is better based of obj's first season to cruz last season? Answer below
Odj is better because he's on the outside going up against the top corners and safeties in the league tougher catches,he's the go to guy the gamebreaker who is expected to keep you in the game and win games exp.jerry rice randy moss t.o. Brandon Marshall Steve smith Larry Fitzgerald all number one receivers or number two sometimes

Yeah he maximizes the slot position makin it easier for Eli to go against a nobody nickel corner, but if he was on the outside with that same consistency as x or z receiver Odj would be in the slot.And due to injury concerns the giants surely protected themself, boy skilled offensive free agent players are curse
They are going to be targets
Still can't believe we didn't win that game in Washington
Him, Odell, and Randall on the same lineup...we will dominate!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+Chicago Rivers lmao randle is a fuckin bum
Robbie Lol no he's not, he's good when he wants to be
This offseason we're either gonna pick up a guy like Mohammad Sanu / similar or use a 2-3rd rounder so we have a reliable WR2 with cruz hopefully in the slot....if that dosen't happen he will get a team friendly deal. The problem with him is that he is just on and off...hes not reliable and thats what you need in a WR2
randles not coming back
+Robbie I agree with sanu, My dream is to get Jeffrey
NY legend
Can't...wait...for... football.
Love New York "Football" Giants forever
Most elusive WR in the league hands down
Cruz Will Resign With The Giants He Ain't Going Nowhere #ALLIN
When my mom watched football with my dad and I: "Why are the fans booing him??"
Bronze They are not booing him they are saying cruuuuuuz
Victor Cruz is goona have a big season this year...Cruuuuuuuuuuuuzzzzzzzzzz
Lol yea sure is right . Fantasy team plummeted
Devon Hope He's goona have around 82 receptions and alittle more than 1,020 receiving Yds and maybe 9 or 10 touchdowns....That's pretty good for a WR
Those yards are close to last year except the touchdowns and catches . Youre projection arent to gonna be to accurate at the end of the season
Devon Hope Yea they will...he already has 18 catches and 299 reciving yds and 1 touchdown already....
Thru 4 games correct ?
5 yr 43 million contract heading Victor's way good for him. Hopefully he will continue to contribute for my Giants b/c we all know relying on Nicks to stay healthy is not exactly the best situation. DONT get me wrong Nicks is awesome, in fact i think he's more talented than Cruz, but his ability to stay healthy scares me. Lets bring the SB back to NY BABY!!
So, you should try a DB compilation or something
No indelligerent is not a word. And again victor Cruz is not a hall of gamer after 2 productive seasons
The season is not quite going as planned is it? lol
This vid is lit like fire
That juke against the tb was amazing better than Dante hall juke
not yet
PLEASE sign him Giants and don't let him leave as a FA.
George Vreeland Hill
Cruuuuuuuuuuuuuz my nga too niice he way to fast breaking defenders ankles out there lml BORICUA !!!

3- Antonio Brown
4- Julio Jones
5- Victor Cruz/Dez Bryant
6- Larry Fitzgerald
7- Reggie Wayne
8- AJ Green
9- Andre Johnson
10- Demaryius Thomas
No Reggie Wayne and Cruz shouldn't even be in there and Andre is not that high. Megatron isn't the best either
iCarolinaGold Reggie and Cruz yes they shouldn't be as well as Josh Gordon, lol Andre he's a top 10, future hall of famer, and plays with shitty QBs , so no stfu.
That list sucks cuh
Edleman is pretty underated. his routes are prefect and he can hit and take huge hits and keep it together. He deserves a spot in the top ten. His punt returns are wicked pissa.
Julian Edelman because he's in the prime of his career, and Welker is probably close to retirement.
Coming out party?
The classic Eli "shrug" coming at you @ 00:14
YES cruz sighned a 6 year deal with giants this september so he is in the giants till i am 16 i am ten
bro your 18 how do you feel about this
he became prone to drop when he heard footsteps as well, after getting hit.
Why is everybody booing
They are not booing when he gets the ball everyone chants cruuuuuuuuz
They're all saying cruuuuuuuuuuuuz.
Rly?
his the goat
Giants offense was never the same after the organization made Coughlin fire Kevin Gilbride. The points went downhill fast, not his fault the new receivers were too stupid to run his playbook and the offensive line shit the bed
Too many option routes in that system which lead to miscommunication and Ints . Eli had his best TD Int Ratio in another System anyways. Giants kept trying to band aide the O Line has still been a revolving door.
Wheres a list of some Fallen Wrs of the giants Steve Smith, Hakeem nicks, Mario manningham, plaxico burress. Somone of the name Victor Cruz or Odell Beckham will be next
You mean receivers that did bad when they didn't have manning? A dis to the receivers but a compliment to eli.
Dominic Oski ur a prophet lol
Great b
Player
Im working on trying to get like him!
Iam a Swedish dude and I like cruz
yeah...on 0:08 he should have popped Sensabaugh in the chest instead of going out of bounds..he could have picked up a few more yards or more, knowing Sensabaugh's tackling ability
I love the giants
man he was a little bit hesitant after getting popped in that one game, i hated that.
hessssss baaaccckkkkk
the fans are actually sayin CRUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUZ not BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
I have him in 2 different leagues.

Don't hate on someone in the NFL and call them ass when you can't do half the shit they do
woops lol meant 6 yr 46 mill contract
i'm even okay with it if they play a song the whole time, but fade it out when the announcers come on. but all those videos with a song blaring over it suck ass.
Cruz and eli is the best teammates ever better the monotana and rice
38 ewgles fans were here...
the giants just released him......we got a home for ya in Dallas!!!!!!!!!!!!
Also you said that the Giants stole the nickname Big Blue but then you said we've been around 30 years longer. Your comments contradict yourself making you look stupid

Wow a highlight video with an actual football soundtrack instead of some douche's favorite song. This is what the FK I'm talking about!!! Sick vid
