I'm so fired up!

GO GMEN!!!!!!!!

I think that the bye week will be a big factor today.
When the Eagles beat the Giants last month, the Giants were in the middle of a grueling stretch in which they had played six teams with winning records. Their third week bye came too early in the schedule to do them much good. Contrast that with the Eagles, who played a Thanksgiving night game the week before and had ten days to rest and prepare.
Now it’s the Eagles who are beat up and the Giants who are rested. Anything can happen when these teams meet, but the G-Men get the edge today.

Did it make a difference for the Cards and the Ravens?
by thwalls on Jan 11, 2009 8:50 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Cards and Ravens
Turnovers were the difference in both games. How often does Carolina cough the ball up 6 times? And Baltimore was +3, negating the Titans’ clear statistical advantage.

Bye week
I think it was incredibly important for the Giants to have that bye. They were very worn down at the end of the regular season, with the grueling schedule and the fact that their bye came after Week 3 of the season. They needed the rest. Hopefully, that will translate into an effective Jacobs, and an active defensive line today.

touche
I am just ENTIRELY over Peyton Manning and 54 sponsored deals, landing him in every commercial break, on every major network. I just tosses Eli in there since i think we’re playing you guys today.
by GreenInBaltimore on Jan 11, 2009 11:04 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
I actually
agree with you about Peyton. I never understood the national love affair with Peyton while everyone turned Tom Brady into a villain – think about it, Peyton was born to football royalty, handed the QB position at Tennessee, was drafted #1 overall, puts up big stats b/c his coach designed a system where he could throw the ball pretty much at will, was surrounded by all-pro and even hall of fame type receivers, and yet consistently lost the big games. Brady, by comparison, had to fight to the very end for the position at Michigan (competing with a freshman Drew Henson, b/c he was a more highly touted prospect), wasn’t drafted till the 6th round, was a backup who only got in b/c the star QB got hurt, led a team with no all-pro receivers to a Super Bowl in his first year starting, and then led that team, still with no great WRs to two more Super Bowls. It wasn’t till last year that they built the system around his arm. Seems to me like Brady would be the classic underdog, while Peyton is the guy that nobody should like, yet it was always the other way around.
All that said, ever since the Super Bowl last year I’ve become a big Peyton fan, and Brady started to get on my nerves.
by cjmulrain on Jan 11, 2009 11:24 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Peyton
I think that his appeal is based less on his record than the fact that the guy genuinely comes off likable and funny on camera, with that deadpan sense of humor. I can’t see Brady going on camera with a fake mustache.
by django48 on Jan 11, 2009 11:47 AM EST up reply actions 0 recs
Yeah, you're right, 48.
Peyton seems to have inborn acting skills.
I think both Warner and Collins have story lines better than those of Manning and Brady. I always root for those two (if they’re not playng the Giants.) I’m indifferent to Manning and Brady (unless they’re playing Big Blue.)

Inactives
From Mike Garafolo, here are today’s inactives for the Giants.
GIANTS
RB Danny Ware
CB Rashad Barksdale
LB Gerris Wilkinson
OL Adam Koets
DE Dave Tollefson
DT Jeremy Clark
DT Leger Douzable
WR Mario Manningham
This means Lawrence Tynes and John Carney will be active today. MG also notes that Derek Hagan is active instead of Mario Manningham. Probably a move designed to aid the special teams. Hopefully, it pays off.

Giants are dominating
everywhere but the scoreboard.

Unfortunately
only the scoreboard counts. I am bugged by the passing game. The wind is killing Eli and they need to go shorter. On the plus side, guys are getting open.

Tuck has the coolest helmet in the NFL.
Sorry, just something I’ve always noticed.
by squid92 on Jan 11, 2009 2:08 PM EST reply actions 0 recs
he wears a Revolution
Eli used to wear it at one point too. Anti-concussion helmet, should be mandatory IMO.

Yeah, and plus the facemask...
He just looks intimidating.

My Dad and his steelers gave me the love for football, but the Giants gave me a Team

Yesterday's TEN/BAL was great defense. This game is just bad offense from both sides

Disagree.
It’s been bad offense, but also good defense.
by squid92 on Jan 11, 2009 2:17 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
But not GREAT defense
The weather definitely is having a huge factor though.

Off tackle run on that play
all outside runs aren’t useless

NICE!
Eli had all day to throw that one.

shocking
Successful running plays that open up the play action.

Whoa!
Gilbride has stumbled onto something, I think. Thank goodness he’s our O coordinator.

Okay, just so I understand it... in your wildest fantasy, you are in hell. And you are co-running a bed and breakfast with the devil.

Giants have dominated, and just have a one-point lead.

Damn. This sucks.
They blitzed and just missed him. It is just too much pressure on the DBs.
