It's a crime that we don't have a thread already! Today's win I think has proven that we deserve a thread.

GO GIANTS!

go giants indeed

[Prez]

I concur

[bdfresh62]

They will win their division this year.

[eggie24]

Go Blue!

Sick game today.

[rhymeandreazon]

its great to see the BIG BLUE in first place!!!!!!

[aeroshady]

Woooo Giants Rock!!!

[Trippin4136]

Big Blue is back for sure. 36-zip beat down on anybody is fantastic. The Skins stood no chance today with all the emotion running through the team. I'd like to believe the Giants will be on a mission for Mr. Mara. Either way, we got SF and an implosion of a Vikings team coming up....7-2 before a showdown with Philly? I'd take that.

Good work on the thread btw, I was thinking earlier that there should be a thread for the Gmen. :thumbsup

[DMBfan41]

Well, I saw the Eagles thread, and I was thinking....that's not right.

Whose in first place???

[kabubbies]

wohoo you beat my skins...wait till you play a real team.............no offense

[Dancing Ants]

They will win their division this year.

cowboys.

[Dancing Ants]

wohoo you beat my skins...wait till you play a real team.............no offense

..........like the cowboys. :D

GO GIANTS!

I'll never root for the Giants after they stupidly benched Kurt Warner while en route to the playoffs.

[DMBfan41]

I'll never root for the Giants after they stupidly benched Kurt Warner while en route to the playoffs.

Giants were going nowhere with Warner. At the time I thought they should've kept with Warner, but looking at where Eli is now, I wouldn't have changed a thing.

[Trippin4136]

wohoo you beat my skins...wait till you play a real team.............no offense

If i'm not mistaken the Giants beat the Broncos who beat down the Eagles 49-21 today. The Broncos are 6-2. Is 6-2 not real enough for you?

[Trippin4136]

wohoo you beat my skins...wait till you play a real team.............no offense


You're team got thrashed 36-0, deal with it. This is not college, this is the NFL where any team stands a chance at anytime. Shit the Bucs who were 5-1 just lost to a lowly 49ers team. Ws are Ws no matter how you get them. However, the Giants didn't just beat Washington, they bent them over.

[bothedmbfan]

Giants were going nowhere with Warner. At the time I thought they should've kept with Warner, but looking at where Eli is now, I wouldn't have changed a thing.

they were going to the playoffs on Warner's one year contract.

[DMBfan41]

wohoo you beat my skins...wait till you play a real team.............no offense

The Redskins...no offense.

They were ranked 4th coming into today. The Giants defense was ranked 31st.

So, how much more real would you like?

[DMBfan41]

they were going to the playoffs on Warner's one year contract.

The Giants had no defense last year, they were going nowhere. Without Strahan, they had nothin.

[Trippin4136]

although i'll take the two pancakes over the next couple weeks. The Giants offense should be more than enough for that porous 9er D, how ever will the Giants D play tight next week - not expecting less than 10 - but they can't go back to letting up 24+. Then home v. the soon to be Culpepper-less Vikes. 7-2 going into a game v. Philly? Yea i'll take that. :hump

[kabubbies]

the redskins are a shit team (and this is my team, i love the skins) and the giants more than bent us over, it was total domination, im just saying dont judge the giants over a win agaisnt the redskins

[DMBfan41]

love skins fans, they act as if we didn't do anything.

[Trippin4136]

no shit, they don't even seem to care about the fact that their #2 offense just got shut out and their supposed blitzkreig like D just got f'in torched.

let's not forget that the Giants avg. starting yardline was the 44 and missed many TD opportunites when they settled for FGs....could have easily been 45 or 48-0.

[Dancing Ants]

skins are a transparent team. so are the giants. eagles are collapsing. leaves only 1 team to dominate.

[Pengin4192]

Don't like the Giants, but I hope they stick it to the Eagles this year.

[DMBfan41]

Not the best win today.

Offense didn't really turn on until the 4th quarter, but hey a win is a win!

6-2, tied with Atlanta, Carolina, and Seattle for the best record in the NFC!

[kbail1230]

Lets go G-men. We need a huge win to beat these Eagles while they are down. The division is ours for the taking.

[vpro695]

they can easily take care of the eagles this week (hopefully)

[kbail1230]

they can easily take care of the eagles this week (hopefully) Yeah I think we have to just pressure Mcmahon and put a linebacker spy so he cant scramble to the right. Im not too worried about the passing game of the Eagles now, but we cant lose to a backup QB scrub. Remember Kurt Kitner when the Falcons beat us at home a year or 2 ago?

[DMBfan41]

giants need to win tomorrow

[kbail1230]

Absolutely, is the game at home? We will win, no doubt in my mind. The Eagles are struggling right now and we have to deal them a huge loss. I wish it was gametime right now :rolleyes

[brendangen412]

Fuck the Eagles!! G-MEN!

[kbail1230]

What do ya say?? Whos fired up for today? I hope we beat the cowboys by 30 points :thumbsup

[DMBfan41]

hell yeah, a snowy day in Jersey, perfect day for football and a perfect day for Giants victory!

[malarks26]

We need the big win today! Go Eli!!!:)

[Trippin4136]

Biggest game of the year. Giants win, its playoffs most likely, they lose and its just about a death sentence with their upcoming road games. Eli's gotta lead the way and Tiki needs a 100 yd game today.

[dmb8]

Kick-off 5Min....:monkey ...nice weather they have today should be fun to watch.

Giants def need this win

[kelme]

cowboys 27
giants 17

[dmb8]

cowboys 27
giants 17

Giants 17
Dallas 3

3rd qtr :D

[magentaflash]

Winners. I love it. Go Eli!

[Ascf33]

Big win. GO BIG BLUE!

[jordonh]

terrible call on the pass intecerception when the cowboys got their 3rd interception. Absoultely terrible

[dmb8]

Glad to see the Gman w/ a win, but I think watching Eli pass is more frustrating than reading posts on how bad dmb's setlist is for the evening.... :lorraine

Giants Defense def secured a win for them today :thumbsup

[aeroshady]

Yeah It was a Big Win! But if Manning doesnt get his shit togeather it means nothing.

[RememberTwo]

I thought it was a nice win. A few key things coming from that game though...Aikman was quick to throw Eli under the truck for having a bad game but its not like Bledsoe did much better. Quarterbacks are allowed to have a bad game once in a while, he is still having a good season and doing a lot better than people thought he would be doing in his second year. Aikman didnt exactly put up probowl numbers in his second year. 8-4 for Eli is an accomplishment.

The big deal out of this game though was Feely missing that 33 yarder. I am worried for the Giants now. A kicker can have a bad game like Feely did in Seattle and then brush their shoulders off and come back out there, or they can meltdown. It is starting to look as though Feely lost his mojo forever. You cannot miss a 33 yard field goal at home, period end of story. This could be a major problem for the Giants down the line.

[brendangen412]

i was at the game
holy shit.

i have absolutely no voice, the stadium was goign nuts. and when feely fucked up that field goal, the stadium went nuts as far as cursing goes. The defense really stepped it up, but we need to get our offense working better. Tiki ran 30 times for 112, i think, he needs to step up, and eli needs to look at all his options instead of throwing to the first guy. but the defense, WHOA! G MEN!

[brydro]

A thread revived.

Just wanted to see what other fellow Giants fans were expecting out of this season.

Me personally, I love that all these "experts" aren't considering the Giants as a favorite to win the East. The division is a Beast. But, if they take a few of those games that everyone is expecting them to lose, they can easily be 10-6. The schedule is insane, but we have weapons on offense and defense.
Only thing I am worried about is the secondary. The D-Line and Linebacking core is fine. Strahan, Osi, and Lavar all in on the rush. WATCH OUT. The best is that arrington will be coming in on Strahans side. LOL.

My hopes for the season? Lavar Arrington returns to form and drops the attitude, Pierce returns from injury, Shockey and Burress coexist as wideout options, Umenyiora and Strahan remain beasts, the revamped secondary (notably, Madison) progresses and meshes with growing talent (Allen and Webster), Eli continues to mature, and Tiki gives us just one more MVP-caliber season. That's alot of if's and hopes, but I think a wild card spot and a 10-6 record is not too unreasonable.

[UNC41]

I don't think there is a favorite in the NFC East. It's a toss up between the Cowboys, Giants and Redskins. Any one of those teams could easily win it.

[beer_n_dmb]

:lol I don't know why. But the Skins. :D

probably because we got rid of that undisciplined linebacker who over ran plays

:thumbsup

[Subcon]

I'm a Jets fan.


But I hope the Giants get a better record than Philadelphia again.

That and those two highly overrated receivers you signed.

Bet you money he has a killer year. You guys don't have Strahan and Osi rushing the qb, add his quickness in there and your qb's toast like Elvis Paterson. :lol

[beer_n_dmb]

That and those two highly overrated receivers you signed.

they aren't overrated if they keep moss from being double teamed

hey, i'm just talking shit. the skins, giants, and cowboys could all dominate most divisions.

it will be a fun year.

in closing, what size ring do you think portis wears?

[Trippin4136]

It's all on Eli this year. If he comes up big in year 3 the Giants can be a very lethal team. If he plays like he did last or regress, the offense is gonna suffer.

Of course it doesn't help that Plaxico is being a selfish prick and taking off with Shockey during the offseason forfeiting all time that could be used to get timing down with Eli.

[Ascf33]

G G G G G - Men!

[brydro]

I know it's only pre-season, but the Defense is crazy good. Eli looked ok at best again. But the D is nuts.

[dmbgodagirl41]

My friend's retarded roommate: I'm an eagles fan.
Me: Must suck knowing that your team won't win a single divisional game this year.
Retarded roommate: No, they are going to win the division are you stupid?

Retarded Roommate: E! A! G! L!--

Seriously, I almost died laughing. I'm not ALWAYS right about these things, but I'm pretty sure that convo backed up my theory that Eagles fans have their heads up their asses so far, that it prevents them from getting enough oxygen to the brain so they can understand that their team is not good right now.

GIANTS ANNOUNCE 53-MAN ROSTER

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. The Giants today reached the NFLs 53-man roster limit by waiving 21 players and placing another on injured reserve.

Among those released were wide receiver Willie Ponder, one of four players in franchise history to return two kickoffs for touchdowns; cornerback Curtis Deloatch, who started 13 games last season; and defensive tackle Damane Duckett, who played in 14 games the previous two seasons, including eight last year. Another veteran let go was safety Quentin Harris, a fifth-year pro who was signed as a free agent in March.

Also waived were a pair of 2006 draft choices, safety Charlie Peprah, a fifth-round selection, and cornerback Gerrick McPhearson, who was chosen in the seventh round.

Defensive ends Eric Moore, the Giants sixth-round selection in 2005, and Adrian Awasom were also waived. Moore played in eight games last season, while Awasom appeared in five.

The other players waived were all rookies and first-year players: tight ends Wade Fletcher and Darcy Johnson, wide receiver Anthony Mix, fullback Tony Jackson, running backs James Sims and Mike Jemison, offensive linemen Kevin McAlmont, Troy Reddick and Todd Londot, defensive linemen Willie Evans and Marcus Green, and linebackers Tyson Smith and Nick McNeil.

Rookie offensive lineman Matt Lentz was placed on injured reserve with an elbow injury.

Those who earned a spot on the 53-man squad include wide receiver/punt returner Michael Jennings, a practice squad player the previous two seasons; five draft choices (Mathias Kiwanuka, Sinorice Moss, Gerris Wilkinson, Barry Cofield and Guy Whimper); two rookie free agents (cornerback Kevin Dockery and offensive lineman NaShan Goddard); and first-year free agent Jonas Seawright, who spent the entire 2005 season on the teams practice squad.

I'm ready for Monday. :bounce

[thehoss]

good to see jennings make the team this year, look out for him!!

[dmb8]

Really looking forward to the Indy - Giants game 9/10 (first time the mannings faced eachother)

*also I landed tickets for the Giants/Cowboys Monday night football game here in Dallas on Oct 23 :bounce !

First time seeing the giants, going to be great!!

[Ascf33]

:thumbsup

[Prez]

I heart my G-Men.

[brydro]

I am pretty excited about the season. Can't wait till next week!

[icanfeeltherain]

i hate the giants

[budgrove]

the giants will be good, but dont think they will win their division. just to tough

[Trippin4136]

the Giants have depth at all positions on defense and enough offensive weapons to go very deep into the season. I think it's all about Eli's maturity and Tiki's health ( knock on wood )

[Trippin4136]

i hate the giants

and we don't like you troll

[budgrove]

health is huge for the giants. if tiki or eli go down, they are in trouble. it doesnt help that they are in one of the hardest hitting divisions and have to play those guys twice!!

[Trippin4136]

yea...you can talk about the Giants possibly suffering at the hands of their division but the other teams have to play the same division schedule. I'm not concerned about Philly and Washington looked downright AWFUL in the preseason.

[budgrove]

they are awful but still pound the hell out of ya. it only takes one good shot to put ya out for awhile. that kind of beating takes a toll on you for a whole season. im not saying it is a talented division just a rough hard nose football one.

[brydro]

health is huge for the giants. if tiki or eli go down, they are in trouble. it doesnt help that they are in one of the hardest hitting divisions and have to play those guys twice!!


Same could be said about every team, if Peyton goes down are the colts really that good? Mcnabb? bye bye philly. Many more too.

I don't care what anyone says the offense is stacked with skilled players.
Shockey, Burress, Tiki, Sinorice, Toomer. If Eli matures and plays the way we expect. They will be awesome.

On the D side, our ends are Pro-Bowlers. The DT's are weak. Pierce, Emmons (if healthy), and Arrington is a damn good LB core. Secondary will be much more improved overall then last year.

I think all the experts are hyping the NFC east way too much. I say the Eagles and Giants battle it out for the division. Eagles had a rough year last year, but Mcnabb is back, and that D is pretty good. Last year should have no reflection of what the eagles will do this year.

I honestly don't see the Skins and the Cowboys being that good. Is the dallas offense really good? TO, will be more of a distraction then an addition.
Skins? What's up with all the skins hype? They are gonna suck this year. Mark my words.

[holdemhart]

good to see jennings make the team this year, look out for him!!


did he go to Miami?

[Ascf33]

Big game tonight... I'd say this needs to be on page 1.

[CrashDMB237]

I'm a Jets fan so I really don't care too much about who wins, but all I know is its going to be a good game. The Colts are definitely the better team overall but you have to imagine the Giants are going to be running on pure adrenaline. I just hope Eli doesn't buckle. He doesn't know how to handle this kind of pressure yet. See: 2005 Playoffs.

[DMBfan41]

I'm excited to see this defense against Peyton.

Osi, Strahan, LeVar, Madison. Can't wait til kickoff

GO BIG BLUE!

[Ascf33]

The last minute of the game was gross tonight. Way to many penaltys throughout the game. That Pass Interference wa horseshit too.

[brydro]

Wow. Awesome come from behind win. Eli was awesome in the 4th quarter. My brother is an Eagle fan, called me at the half, was talking major shit...Funny, but he didnt pick the phone up after the game.

[Trippin4136]

as good as that comeback was yesterday, the secondary still needs A LOT of work. Sam Madison was getting lit up like a Christmas tree yesterday.

Oh yea, and the pass rush was downright putrid.

[brydro]

I agree 100 percent. Worst part of the team is the secondary. I dont know who is worse at this point, Will Allen or Sam Madison. They need to pick the play up a lot.

As for Pass rush, I like Tim Lewis but I feel he could come up with some better schemes to pass rush..We have too much talent on the ends and Lb's to not be getting to the qb a lil more.

Was Shockey even in the game yesterday?:lol

Overall it was a hell of win, and much better being 1-1 than 0-2. Toomer had a great game...

[Trippin4136]

oh yea...12 catches 137 2 TD....HUGE. I didn't realize he had 12 grabs.

Will Allen is gone. Jason (?) Webster is the other starting CB.

And yes, Shockey must get involved more. He's too talented to be wasted.

I know Will Allen is gone, I am saying I dont know at this point if we upgraded by signing Madison...

Corey Webster is the other DB, but he is also in his second year. Where Madison is making good money as a FA signing...

[jmudmbphan]

i just picked up toomer in my fantasy league.....does anyone in here think this season will be a resurrgence for him, or just a couple of lucky weeks?

[dmbgodagirl41]

hahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahaha

[brydro]

i just picked up toomer in my fantasy league.....does anyone in here think this season will be a resurrgence for him, or just a couple of lucky weeks?

Toomer has always been consistently a good WR, never great but good.
I thought about picking him up too, but this past week is not what he will do consistently, Shockey will get more involved, and so will Sinorice Moss so that will take some touches away from him..

[brydro]

hahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahahahaha

It wasn't anything special. I had called him Saturday because he is an Irish fan in College sports, and I am a Michigan fan. So I broke his balls Saturday, he said I better enjoy it cause its the only win I will be getting from a football team this weekend. Fast Fwd to Sunday, I call him at the half Eagles are up huge, He is talking trash, how Eli is overated, the secondary sucks, the Giants suck..etc..now fast fwd to to end of game, I call he picks up and hangs up, then wont pick the phone up the rest of the night..:lol :lol :lol :lol

[DMBfan41]

the problem with Shockey is he's ALWAYS hurt.

A great talent, but always hurting.

[Ascf33]

We just kick ass.

[holdemhart]

Has anyone heard if Shockey is going to play this weekend?

[brydro]

Has anyone heard if Shockey is going to play this weekend?

All I know is there is nothing that is broken..But if you are talking from a fantasy standpoint he has killed me this year..I wouldn't be suprised if he plays..BUT how much is he going to contribute? If the past weeks show anything, not much. Unfortunatly..

[holdemhart]

P.S. I'm glad our defense realized that they play on Sunday's finally, that was getting frightening.

[Trippin4136]

Shockey is virtually non-existant (for whatever reasons) in this offense. He's a marginal fantasy player at best right now

[dmbgodagirl41]

jeremy shockerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[brydro]

Shockey is virtually non-existant (for whatever reasons) in this offense. He's a marginal fantasy player at best right now

Coughlin doesn't use Shockey like Fassel used shockey..Fassel used to spread him out to the point where he was a wide reciever.If they used Shockey more the offense could be potent...

[Trippin4136]

I agree. It's ridiculous how little he gets the ball. I think he has the right to be pissed off given his current role in the offense.

This is the closest one..

Derek Zoolander :"I'm pretty sure there's a lot more to life than being really, really good looking. And I plan on finding out what that is. "

A-Rod really needs to hire a new publicist who can coach him on how not to make people fucking hate him. And it wouldn't hurt if he got a hit or two in the postseason.

[holdemhart]

The Giants are getting three points this week. I'm all over that.

[brydro]

Not a Derek Zoolander quote..but here is one of my personal favs...

Hansel:"So I'm repelling down Mount Vesuvius when suddenly I slip, and I start to fall. Just falling, ahh ahh, I'll never forget the terror. When suddenly I realize "Holy shit, Hansel, haven't you been smoking Peyote for six straight days, and couldn't some of this maybe be in your head?"

As long as our Ends and OLB's can contain Vick when he runs, I think we'll be fine. Eli will pick apart that D like its nothing... (as long as he keeps the floaters to a minimum.)

[DMBfan41]

only problem is, the Giants can't beat the Falcons.

I can't remember the last time they did

[Ascf33]

Also true. Playing away in the crazy dome as well.

[ncdude2k3]

I'm a big Giants fan this week. I'm looking for your team to beat the Falcons, so mine can get closer to that division lead. Atlanta's defense is much improved over last year..but I think the Giants offense is good enough to put up..27 or so points on it.

[Ascf33]

Maybe Shockey can STFU and get involved here. He's killing me in fantasy.

[holdemhart]

Maybe Shockey can STFU and get involved here. He's killing me in fantasy.

Looks like he made a nice contribution this week. How about those G-Men?!?!? That was a great second half!

[Trippin4136]

HUGE win for the Giants. I really didn't believe they would go into the dome and pull out a win but they did. A total of about 525 rushing yards in the game from both sides, that's crazy.

It sets the stage for an even bigger game next MNF @ Dallas.

[aeroshady]

Yeah if Big Blue can pull out a win next week the Giants will be looking pretty good!

[DMBfan41]

big game next week, giants need to win and truly make a statement

[Ascf33]

big game next week, giants need to win and truly make a statement

They gotta win the next 3 games. Dallas, Tampa Bay, Houston. Then the big game against Chicago.

[holdemhart]

Huge game this week. The G-Men need to put pressure on Bledsoe's old ass early and often. Hopefully Eli can shine on the national broadcast.

[holdemhart]

Oh yeah, I was wondering if anyone knew of any good websites for the NYG? The only one I know of is bigblueinteractive.com. Thanks.

Tiki leaning towards possible retirement at season's end.

That'd be shame. He's got a few great years left IMO but he'll do great things whatever he does off the field as well. He's been an all-time Giant and it'd be sad to see him retire early.

[holdemhart]

^ Damn that sucks. I understand that he has plenty of opportunities outside of football, but after the way he ran the ball last week it would kill me to see him go. Gotta give the man credit though, he will certainly be one of the best in New York Giants history.

[DMBfan41]

The man has to be tired.

He's been the majority of the Giants offense

[Trippin4136]

I could sympathize if he has those feelings.

He had said in preseason that if they won the SB, he'd retire the next day. Maybe he just doesn't see a title coming out of this team in the next 3 years and has come to accept it.

I highly doubt that is his reasoning for his retirement. He was on Jim Rome a few months back and said that he didn't want to end up like Marshall Faulk, who is going to have health issues his entire life because he played too long.

[DMBfan41]

this is the start of the new Giants.

the Giants are ballin on D, and running on the O. I expect them to go into Dallas and win monday night. And then crush the Bucs and Texans. Leading to the show down with the Bears.

[Trippin4136]

yea I heard him say something similar on other shows.

Well, thats it, they gotta win the Super Bowl this year for Tiki :thumbsup

If he's gonna go, I'd love to see him go out on top!!

[2SteppingInVA]

Tiki is the man.
The Giants blow.
Eli is kind of sexy. ;)

speaking of football teams blowing, how bout that UNC football huh?

[Ascf33]

Sad news about Tiki. Thats going to be a sad night when his jersey is retired.

[dmb8021]

I don't come here often and haven't seen this thread, but this is what Tiki is all about. This is from the Chiefs game last year and it was awsome being at this game and seeing this performance in person (plus, this clip has the always awesome Bob Papa):

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4lcLlmwETjY

[Trippin4136]

no doubt Tiki is the man. He personifies what it means to be a New York Giant

[dmb8021]

no doubt Tiki is the man. He personifies what it means to be a New York Giant

Yup. Guys like Tiki, and the well dressed Amani Toomer, Strahan, these guys are, like you said what it means to a New York Giant. As Coughlin said after the Eagles game, he saw a bit of that New York Giants pride, and hopefully that was the start of it and we'll continue to see it this season.

[Trippin4136]

Like I said before, if he's going to retire at the end of the season, he knows what he's gotta do.

Run like a maniac the rest of the season and take the Giants all the way

[dmb8021]

some of the things I would like to see the rest of the season (and also things I think they need to do to make the playoffs and more):

1) First thing, Eli needs to be more accurate with his passes. Burress is tall and has a great vertical leap, and yet, he continues to throw it over his head, even when he is wide open.

2) The secondary needs to do a much better job. They didn't really get tested last week in Atlanta, because the Falcons are more of a rushing team. But they will get tested this week, having to defend T.O. and Glenn. They can't be leaving receivers wide open like they have been. They did a better job against the Redskins in not letting Moss do too much, and this needs to continue.

3) Feely can't missing field goals like he has been. So far, it hasn't mattered that he has missed some, but if it keeps up, it will come back and hurt us.

[dreamintreegurl]

First of all, hey everyone, I'm new to these forums!!:D If Tiki retires, I too will be one VERY sad Giants fan!! He is my favorite player - awesome running game and a great guy to top it off. Oh yeah, and those damn Cowboys are goin down!!:twak

[Ascf33]

Welcome. :)

I feel the same way.

[dmb8021]

the big key for Monday night is to pressure Bledsoe and contain T.O and Glenn. We did a good job of pressuring Vick last week, so hopefully that will carry over. If we can do what we did against the Redskins in not letting Brunell do much and containing Moss, we should be in good shape. Hopefully.

[Trippin4136]

If they pressure Bledsoe well enough, TO and Glenn will be contained

[Ascf33]

Bledsoe is on his back more then he's in the pocket.

[Trippin4136]

I'm more concerned about Marion Barber and Julius Jones having a field day.

[Ascf33]

I see it being a big rushing game for both teams. 100+ yards for both Tiki and Jones.

[Ascf33]

^ :haha well at least I was right about Tiki.

GGGGGGGGGMENNNNN!!!!!
4-2, First Place NFC East

[crashintonickdm]

i hate the giants so much but wow do they deserve 4-2, eli looks solid and tiki is just his normal amazing self. drew bledsoe, ive tried to stick with him throughout all this but i think tony romo needs to step up and work on his future. besides the 3 INTs he seems more comfortable with TO and he will be pretty decent i think. i dont know fi the cowboys season is lost yet but i know they should be much better next year.

its sad to see bledsoe go out like this, he has done so much over the years. but when hes the statue of liberty, i mean its just awful

[holdemhart]

What a game!!! 4-2 and in first place and more importantly we are 3-0 in our division. That really blows about arrington though, he was just starting to show what he was capable of adding to the team.

[Trippin4136]

Great game. It's about time the Giants stomped the Cowboys on MNF after all the years the Cowboys did it to them in the 90s. The defense was hungry and the offense made spectacular plays all night.

The only downside is the Giants took a lot of punishment in this game. They lose LaVar for the season, Osi leaves with a hip injury (hopefully nothing to serious) and Tiki gets a pretty bad stinger. They got roughed up pretty good.

What pisses me off on Dallas' side is...how many times does Roy Williams get to get away with that f'in horsecollar tackle?!? He brought Tiki down that way , I counted, 3 different times, BLATANTLY. That tackle became illegal b/c of Williams and the 3 legs he broke with that move and when he does it all over the field and it doesn't get called it pisses me off.

And lastly, ESPN's coverage is fucking pathetic. What was the spread of the coverage after the game? 80/20 Cowboys/Giants respectively. They seemingly could only talk about the Cowboys implosion and this QB controversy instead of the Giants dominated a HUGE division win and all the things they did right. Do I give a shit to hear Parcells bitch and moan about his sorry Cowgirls and his awful QB duo all night? No.

ESPN makes me sick, you are right about that one. They hyped the cowboys up so much it was a bigger story to cover the loss then the win by the NY football Giants. How bout them G-Men.

[Trippin4136]

And only Berman had the grapes to pick them before the game.

Good, the Giants snapped Tom Jackson's 7-0 pick streak.

Agreed. It's exactly what happened. They spent so much time slurping an average team they think is good, they don't realize the team that stomped them is actually the real story.

How about the fact that the Giants were 1-2 and seemingly about to mutiny Coughlin and now they are in the drivers seat in the division? That seems like a pretty good story.

[Trippin4136]

By the way, I could watch a replay of Pierce slamming TO to the ground all day.

And the drop on 4th and 2? Bwhahahaha. TO's a bitch.

[brydro]

By the way, I could watch a replay of Pierce slamming TO to the ground all day.

And the drop on 4th and 2? Bwhahahaha. TO's a bitch.

what was also fun was the tad bit late hit by Brandon Short on TO too..:lol

[Trippin4136]

oh yea...he was getting all sorts of pissed. And when Madison (or Wilson forget who it was) got called for the PI in the end zone preventing him from scoring he got all whiney again.

It annoyed me that he scored in the game, but, he starts doing his retarded tennis celebration - "hey TO, its you're still down by 13". I seriously think he just as total verbal diaherria and legitimately has no control over his mouth. He was flapping his gums after he dropped the 4th and 2 ball as if it wasn't his fault. TO, dude, you dropped a ball on a 5 yard out with no one around you. Bitch.

[holdemhart]

By the way, I could watch a replay of Pierce slamming TO to the ground all day.

And the drop on 4th and 2? Bwhahahaha. TO's a bitch.

Hell yes!! What a sight. I'm not sure which was better, T.O. getting drilled or him dropping the wide open 4th down pass.

Speaking of espn's coverage, when are they going to realize that Joe Theismann sucks? It seems like all he wants to do is correct Kornheiser. Every time he does a Giants game he has animosity towards the G-Men for some reason. He can never give them the respect they deserve. I think he's still pissed that L.T. snapped his leg in half.

That's the reason, Theisman is naturally a Redskin booster, and you are right he is pissed LT ruined his career..:lol

[Trippin4136]

Theismann and Kornheiser have a beef, I believe, b/c Kornheiser is a writer for the Washington Post and he's not very friendly to the Redskins. He may have been working for the paper when Theismann was there, but that may not be true. But the former stands.

[magentaflash]

GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGmennnnnnnnnnnnnnn!

[Trippin4136]

now, they can't have a let down next week v. Tampa Bay like Philthy did.

[holdemhart]

I think Tiki and Co. are going to have a field day with that battered bucs defense. Did you see how many blown tackles they had on that pass to westbrook last week? That was some JV shit there.

[Trippin4136]

oh yea, that was amateur hour on that Westbrook run. Certainly not the TB defense of years past

[holdemhart]

Their defense definitly crumbled there towards the end of the game and it was killing me. I think that was the first time I've ever rooted for the bucs. Matt Bryant definitly helped the G-Men's cause, which would be the first time that he did anything beneficial for the Giants.

[Trippin4136]

no kidding. the guy couldn't make a 35 yarder or even reach from 50 when he was with the Giants. and now he's kicking 62 yd GW FGs??

although, if that game was in Philthy, that ball doesn't have a prayer. The hot Florida air definitely helped. But it was a great kick nonetheless. Usually on such a long kick, the kicker will overcompensate and the ball won't even be close.

[DMBand520]

now, they can't have a let down next week v. Tampa Bay like Philthy did.

The Giants looked pretty good this week. IMO winning the division is out of your hands though (and yes I know TECHNICALLY you are a half game up on Philly). Obviously you are going to have a lot more wins this year and you'll have a few more losses (you aren't gonna go 14-2). But the Eagles are the best team in that division the problem is they haven't played a complete game yet this year. EVERY game this year the Eagles have played amazing one half and totally sucked the other half. Sometimes they look amazing at the beginning (vs Giants, vs 49ers) sometimes we look amazing at the end (vs Texans, vs GB, vs NO, vs Tampa). If the Eagles win this week against a struggling Jacksonville team and get their shit together during the bye week and play a great second half the Giants will have to settle for a wild card spot. I'm not saying the Eagles will get their shit together and start playing complete games, but I am saying that the only team that can stop the Eagles from winning the division is the Eagles. I guess we'll see how things shake out in a few weeks. The Eagles/Giants game at Giants Stadium should be a good one and will definitely have some major playoff implications.

Either way in the NFC the best teams right now are probably:

Bears - Arizona showed they aren't invincible

Seahawks - Losing their QB for a few weeks plus having Alexander out is gonna make this team fall off. I think the Rams might even win the division.

Rams - Might take division if Seahawks fall off

Saints - I don't think they are for real but they might get a wild card especially if Seahawks and Falcons fall off

Panthers - They are too hot and cold. If they get hot and stay hot they will win their division.

Falcons - I don't think they're gonna make the playoffs. I just don't think they are that good.

Eagles - I think they can win the division if they just start playing complete games and can have a strong finish to the season.

Giants - They can win the division if they keep playing good football and the Eagles don't get it together.

My guess for the playoffs

Bears
Panthers
Eagles
Rams
Giants (Wild card)
Saints (Wild card)

[holdemhart]

Anyone else in this thread smile from ear to ear when they showed McNabb on the sideline after Bryant booted that kick?

[Trippin4136]

Wow that post had so much homerism I don't even know where to start.

Right now, the Giants are 4-2, the Eagles are 4-3 v. some very vanilla competition and got humiliated by the Giants comeback at home. The Giants are 3-0 in the division and the Eagles are 1-1. You can slurp your team all you want, but right now, the Giants look like the better team and have played much tougher competition to this point.

[Trippin4136]

Loved it. Nothing like seeing McScabb throw 3 INT, lose to a 1-4 team AND blow chunks on the field on top of that.

[holdemhart]

The Eagles have a really rough stretch at the end. They play every team in the division on the road at the end of the season.

[holdemhart]

I agree with this post 100%. :thumbsup

[Trippin4136]

Giants play TB and Houston the next 2 weeks at home. They MUST be 6-2 going into that (thanks to flex scheduling) big SNF game v. the Bears

Well I guess we'll see where they are both at by Week 15 when they play at Giants Stadium. IMO the Eagles are the more talented team and I think they showed it when they dominated the Giants for 3 quarters. Unfortunately they got overconfident and shut it down too early then had a bonehead play by their 2nd year DE that got the Giants into FG range to send it into OT.

[Trippin4136]

they may have dominated the first 3 quarters but a W is a W and when you're up that much, a talented team doesn't let another come back like that.

You don't have the Vikings in there? Weak. Go look at their remaining schedule and tell me they won't be in the playoffs.

[Trippin4136]

I think the Vikings will suffer another annual November/December slide towards 8-8

[pkpro1]

i hate the giants :mad

Sounds like a typical Philly span response to me, "Well we would've won if....." My only response to that is: if your aunt had balls she'd be your uncle. Yes they "dominated" the G-Men but they had an all time choke job, get over it.

[DMBand520]

I never said we would've won IF anything. I said we dominated the Giants for 3 quarters and then we screwed up. Sometimes teams win games that they should lose and sometimes they lose games that they should win. The Eagles have just had 3 games against less talented teams break the wrong way for them this year. In my original post I was saying if we get our shit together I think we have the most talented team and therefore we'll win the division. If we don't then we'll be lucky to get a wild card spot.

[holdemhart]

I think Andy Reid needs to read some books on clock management.

[DMBand520]

I think Andy Reid needs to read some books on clock management.

I think he gets too indecisive at times and takes to long to call the play. He also doesnt run enough when they are winning to run down the clock.

Against Tampa he did a great job though. The only timeout we burned was when McNabb got sick. The only clock management screw up was at the end of the half when McNabb threw a pass to LJ Smith on the 2 yd line with 9 seconds left, but that wasn't Reid's fault. LJ is a diversion on that play unless there is no one between him and the end zone. McNabb has to either throw that ball away or throw it to a receiver IN the endzone.

excuse me...their losses were not "bad breaks".

I agree that a 62 yd GW FG is a bad break, who would have thought he would make that...but if they are so talented they shouldn't have put themselves in that position. McNabb throwing 3 INT (including 2 pick 6s) isn't a bad break, that's shitty play.

Having 12 men on the field subsequently negating your team's HUGE sack on 3rd and 10 allowing the drive to continue and kick the GW FG is something talent teams don't do

Allowing a team to come from behind from 17 down in the 4th Quarter and torch you in OT is something talented team's DON'T DO.

You can preach all you want about how the Eagles "should" and "could" be 7-0. Bottom line, they've fucked themselves in every game they lost.

[UNC41]

I think the Vikings will suffer another annual November/December slide towards 8-8

You honestly think they'll only win four more games when their schedule includes San Fran, Green Bay (twice), Miami, Arizona, Detroit, NYJ and St. Louis? The only two top tier teams they play the rest of the year are New England and Chicago.

[Trippin4136]

I didn't know the rest of their schedule off hand but looking at those teams I would have to assume they'll win at least 4 of them but the Vikings have had some pretty miserable finishes to their season in recent memory so who knows.

[UNC41]

I think the difference between this Vikings team and those of years past is they actually have a legit defense this year.

[holdemhart]

Not sure if any of you guys have seen or not but the Giants v. Bears game in three weeks is going to be moved to Sunday night because of NBC's new flex scheduling. Looks like the people want to see the G-Men expose Rex Grossman and I'm all for that.

[Trippin4136]

yea i saw that. great move by NBC. Another throwback rivalry game.

Giants vs. Bears. Oh yea.

[Ascf33]

Giants need to be 6-2 in three weeks when they play the Bears (like I said on page 5). If they come in with a 5 game win streak, they may be able to challenge the Bears' amazing D with 40 rush attempts by Tiki and then the big play to Burress.

[holdemhart]

Just thought all the Giant faithful would appreciate this...http://sports.espn.go.com/nfl/powerranking?season=2006&week=8

I like what they say about the G-Men and and I love what they say about the Eagles (goes along pretty well with the theme of this thread). Couldn't agree more with both statements.

[holdemhart]

Another big win for the Giants this weekend. They should handle the Texans next week but the week after that comes the real test....da bears.

[Trippin4136]

The Giants avoided the let down v. the Buccaneers...they simply can't let it happen v. Texans with the Bears due up the next week which will be the biggest game in the NFC so far this season.

[FACHEBLOOTZ]

I hope the Bears come in to NY undefeated. When you have a streak going, that's all the teams thinks about. But when you get that loss off your back, you play alot more relaxed. I think the Giants have a great shot at beating the Bears. If Arizona can shut them down like that, the Giants can do it as well with a MUCH better defense than Arizona. Plus the the Giants have spoiled a few undefeated teams in their day.

[Trippin4136]

Possible NFC championship game? I think so.

I hope so. The Giants have a tough schedule all year long but they are playing great. If they're D can keep it up, I firmly believe they can beat the Bears. If the Giants don't beat the Bears, frankly, who the hell will? I guess the Pats would be the last chance.

[holdemhart]

I know the Bears are a great team and I'm not denying that at all but I still have my doubts about Rex Grossman. But to be honest, sometimes Eli looks really shaky as well.

[Ascf33]

When Eli lofts that floating duck to Burress, I swear I shit myself every time. He's got a cannon to the middle and the sidelines, but the deep ball is what scares me.

A good defense will pick that off everytime.

I know exactly what you mean. His passes are far from the prettiest but I'm not complaining as long as he keeps putting up the touchdowns.

[DMBfan41]

I could see the Giants D shutting down Grossman.

I worry about the Bears defense shutting down the Giants though. Tampa Bay didn't let Tiki do anything, and Eli didn't have a good game. The only real offensive positive last week was Jacobs, that guy can run! Good to know we'll have some hope when Tiki hangs it up for good

[Ascf33]

I think the G-Men will be the first to knock off the Bears.

[Trippin4136]

Yeah that was not pretty at all but glad to see Shockey get into the Offense a bit there. I also thought that was a touchdown earlier in the game.

I agree, they usually don't get Shockey involved in the offense enough IMO. Glad to see we pulled it out today, big game next week!

[aeroshady]

last few Giants game have been wins, but not good ones. Next week will tell us a lot about this team!

[holdemhart]

We are getting decimated with injuries though. I hope Strahan's injury isn't serious.

I think it might be. They said he was walking around in a boot after the game. X-rays came back negative, but that doesn't mean we're out the woods yet.

[Trippin4136]

rumor is it's a sprain foot ligament/muscle. Which can be very painful, especially for d-lineman who need to constantly be pushing off.

If the Giants can hold onto their hats while surviving through this rash of injuries, they will be ok

[DMBfan41]

the defense is deteriorating every week

[Trippin4136]

Strahan is officially out 2-4 weeks. The D is MASH unit.

[holdemhart]

any clue when Osi returns?

[DMBfan41]

So Toomer is out for the reason......

Come on Football Gods, this is just not funny anymore

[bothedmbfan]

Apparently, Plexiglass isn't going to play either.

[malarks26]

Unfortunately this is true, I couldn't believe it when I heard it simply b/c it wasn't made a big deal up until the MRI. A lot of people didn't even know Toomer hurt the knee and he still can't say when in the Texans game it happened.

Tim Carter is just going to have to step up, no ifs, ands, or buts. He's got the talent, now he just needs to use it and make some big plays for us!

[holdemhart]

well at least Sinorice Moss is practicing again. He needs to speed up that recovery because they are dropping like flys.

I agree...he needs to start making an impact this second part of the season.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Trippin4136]

I agree. I've been waiting for him all season as their home run threat. And now with Amani finished, he's GOT to make an impact this half of the season. The offense really really needs it.

What hurts about Amani going down is he was their possession receiver. The go to guy on 3rd and 5 or 3rd and 7. That stings. What it means is that Shockey HAS to be more incorporated into the offense.

ummm...ook - I guess its kind of funny.

But please, take your stank Boston, Patriots loving ass out of here. Thanks.

Exactly, they MUST get Shockey involved more, period. When he catches a few balls he gets the entire team fired up with his enthusiasm.

I also wish they'd use Brandon Jacobs more. He should be getting 10-15 touches a game, not just a few here and there when Tiki needs a break or when the ball is on the 5. The guy is an absolute animal!

[Trippin4136]

I agree. Jacobs is a monster that needs to be let out a little more.

[Tiduwho]

Apparently, Plexiglass isn't going to play either.


Then why is he calling out the Bears secondary?

He's an idiot. He should be muzzled.

I thought this was a thread for the Giants. You don't have to be a sole fan of the giants. I cheered for the Giants in 1991 super bowl, and got grounded for a week because I called the Bills kicker a "raging asshole".

Doesn't that count for anything?

[Trippin4136]

No. You root for the Patriots.

[dmbgodagirl41]

No. You root for the Patriots.
Fine, be that way. But if you wanted to cheer for the Pats I wouldn't make you feel crappy about it.

[Trippin4136]

You're right. If I were to root for the Patriots that alone would make me feel disgusting.

Now. Back to Big Blue.

Yeah, i bet it would be hard to cheer for a football team that actually wins shit once in a while.

but yes, continue.

actually it'd be rather simple. but I choose not to lower myself to Boston trash and the biases, horrible one sided talk radio, awful media that comes with it.

Please leave. You're virtually the only non-Giants fan in this thread.

[dmbgodagirl41]

what are you talking about? I posted an anti-eagles picture and thought that GIANTS fans would like it. What is up your ass? I'm sorry I don't sit around moping and trashing other teams for no reason. At least when I bash on other teams it's got backing to it.

[Trippin4136]

:lol, yea it's got backing to it. Your fangirl mentality and how the Patriots only give away games.

Anyways, I'm done. Back to work.

[dmbgodagirl41]

:lol, yea it's got backing to it. Your fangirl mentality and how the Patriots only give away games.

Yeah 4 turnovers due to people not knowing how to catch a ball when they are wide open shows awesome defense from the other team. I'm so happy you're here to make sure I truly understand the game. So thank you for that.

It's a NYG thing...you wouldn't understand.

[Ascf33]

Toomer done for the year, Burress may be out with Back spasims... looks like Carter and Tyree will be it.

[FalloutBoyRocks]

Uhhhhhhhhh-ohhhhhhhhhhhh.

My prediction:

Winner of Eagles/Giants showdown at Giants Stadium takes the NFC East.

Discuss.

[Ascf33]

It may actually help us to tell you the truth. The elimination of the big play WR, may force Eli to throw to the sidelines and middle more, instead of lofting up the floating duck that makes all Giants fan gasp for air everytime he throws it. (Giants fans... you gotta know what I'm talking about. The wobbling floater 30 yards downfield that should be picked off everytime but Burress pulls it out of nowhere)

It will get Shockey more involved in the offense and Tiki will get 50 rushes every game.

EDIT: Obviously, losing Toomer and Burress will hurt the Offense, but it forces Eli to make better throws and the O-Line to block for Tiki more. Thats what I am saying. Eagles will finish 2nd, and battle Min. and St. Louis for the 5th and 6th spots.

[RexGrossman]

did you just say losing burress is a good thing?

i think you are over anyalyzing that a bit.

I edited it before I saw your post. I re-read it and realized thats what it sounded like I meant. My bad Rex.
