I am sitting in my office wearing my Strahan jersey (Got to get a Tuck Jersey) so excited for the season to start. I cannot think of anything else but watching Phillips clock a few guys, intercept a ball and watching Eli connect with Plaxico.

This is going to be a fun year. At least every game I watch I get to hear, “Well the Defending Super Bowl Champs ….” Hopefully it will be followed by, “are kicking their butt today.” I guess we shall see.

Go Gints.

I’m in baja. and I will miss the first quarter because I get off from work at 8. Does anyone know a web page or something to see the game? I cannot miss the beginning of the game. Help!!

I think you can watch it online at NFL.com. Hope it helps.

I love you man (in a giant fan way)
 thanks it seems is going to work.

Hours before kickoff of tonight’s season-opener against the Redskins, Burress signed a new five-year, $35 million contract that will pay him $11 this season and keep him with the Giants through the 2012 season.

Is this confirmed? Does anyone know if this is done?

Here’s to another great, safe season!

I know we all hate each other, but it’s good to know the NFC East is the most talented and most competitive division in football.

Nice to finally have real football again.

Strahan entering with the Lombardi Trophy.

“Let’s welcome the Lombardi Trophy BACK to Giants Stadium!” [CROWD ROARS!]

Goosebumps!! So badass.

What a start!

gene upshaw

is apparently happy about his new deal.

What a great drive to start the season!

a little shake and bake by Eli Manning! And Carney’s ex pt #1 is gooooooooooooood

What was that about the Giants missing all that pass rush?

Where are the sacks going to come from?

Where was McQuarters going?

has hands of stone in the passing game. Yuck!

If he doesn’t trip over snee that’s an extra 10 yds

is what Jacobs CAN do. Running over people. Fun to watch.

keep the gas on the pedal Gmen.

+ watching him get past the D line is incredible. This is testament to the Giants O line. If Jacobs gets through and can punish the ‘Skins LB’s and DB’s we’re in GREAT shape.

I know he just ran for 8, but why not leave him in, hes only the biggest damn RB in the league?

….But when did Washington sign Luke Petitgout?

(haha)

Send McDougle back to the Eagles! Just missed it.

damn. inauspicious beginning……

might be the best player on this defense.

Looks like the Giants can get just about whatever they want running the ball.

But, that is one freakin’ funny commercial!

They don’t look like the can match the energy, the speed, strength of the Giants right now. I hope it continues all night. I love spags. I hope he never leaves.

A Sinorice Moss sighting!

My vote is Dallas

hats off to the O line

I hoped we wouldn’t see those delay penalties.

A good start.

Good temp replacement, no? A guy like that who has been in the league for so long is definitely a plus.

why is RW fair catching?

within 15 yards of him. When Hixon gets healthy again I hope TC puts him back there. RW doesn’t turn the ball over, but doesn’t really make plays, either.

Watch Eli spread the ball around, and you see how many weapons they have.

He is going to have a big year.

he’s a stud. Plus contract year for B Jac. He will be unstoppable.

PS: if that play was to bradshaw, that’s 6 pts

is pretty darn good.

imagine ryan grant could be sitting on the sidelines for this team.

A touchdown would be nice here. Put this away early.

Gilbride must be confused

from a 44-year-old. Pretty good.

…..but It would be great if the GMen were able to come away with some more points….

to agree with Madden, but he’s right. Just keep going at them.

Can’t give ’Skins life.

that’s the worst thing that could have happened. This should be a blowout, and now it’s a game.

santana moss get that open? of all people!

…..how did they put that drive together? Tough way to go into the half, giving them momentum and now the Skins get the ball back in the 2nd half

outside of 2 receptions by the Skins, the Giants totally dominated.

the giants always like to make it fun. They hate blowing people out and putting a game out of reach. that is too easy and since I have always believed the Gints are secretly sponsored by rolaids. they need to make sure I consume the pack in front of me and are forced to return to foodtown to stock up for the second half.

Giants look good but they gott work on the redzone offense I guess.

What kind of penalty is that?

of this game again. Now!

The calls tonight have been….tough. Just uneven – I don’t understand all of ’em

Finally left Jacobs in in short yardage.

I guess there will still be moments with Eli

Seems like guys can’t get open for Eli right now?

What a weapon. Thank god he was talked out of retiring a few yrs back.

Just can’t ever make anything easy. Should we expect anything else?

Things are about to get tight.

is getting big holes right now

for the fake punt here.

kenny phillips play!!!

We could use a nice long drive with some points right here.

We will see you guys in November.

get the ball to Plax … that seems to work

Doesn’t work, though. Damn!

The Gnts are dominating this game. Yeah, they’re still shaking of some rust, but Madden (as much as I can’t stand him as a commentator) is right about your lines. Both o and d are picking up where they left off. And Jacobs looks like a faster Okoye with better lateral movement.

Nice 3 and out right there.

is getting some time now huh? interesting ….

In Spags we trust!!

is becoming the third down possession guy.

Great blitz pick-up, great throw. Good play all around.

They can get the ball to Plax just about every play.

Is that a blocking scheme or a signal for a play change?

If this game isn’t over by 10:00, will they cut away to the RNC?

FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE FAVRE

Come on NBC, it’s a Giants game.

Nice defensive stand.

please sustain a drive here? Put this game away NOW.

i would take a time-consuming drive that nets a field goal, even.

I’m a little concerned that he sometimes seems to be locked in on Burress to the exclusion of other receivers

Giants should have blown this team out. Game is much closer than it should be.

can’t end fast enough.

Robbins is hurt. Hopefully, it’s not bad.

but the Skins don’t want to win

holding call.

Great tackle on Moss.

Huge stop.

as long as the Giants don’t fumble.

yet again!

But, still have to punt.

Good game by the D, good quarter and a half by the O. Time to beat a dead horse and say we still need to see some consistency out of our offense. But, overall a good start to our season. Beat a division foe, showed a good pass rush, ran the ball well, and showed flashes of the wealth of talent on O.

I’m going to be really freaking pissed if Kiwanuka is hurt

we might need him

needs to die for that tackle on Kiwi.

be Giants victory if wasn’t close…..Just hope Kiwanuka is OK. Really, for the Giants, this one didn’t even seem close. No fourth quarter come back or nothing…..maybe the big blue ulcer won’t come around every game this season…

Well, the final score was a lot closer than the actual game. The Giants really dominated this thing. but i would like to see them put 7’s on the board instead of 3’s. Jacobs looked great, although i was disappointed in the lack of Ahmad Bradshaw. Tuck looked like the best player on the defense i thought, which was good to see. And you can’t say enough about Plax.

A few too many penalties and the red zone offense were the only real negatives, unless of course Kiwi is hurt, which would be a devastating loss. Lets say a few prayers for that leg tonight.

Finally, that opening ceremony with Strahan was incredible and gave me goosebumps.
