By The Numbers: The Giants are 5-0 for the third time in team history. They have not started 6-0 since 1990, when they won the Super Bowl ... The Saints are first in the league at 36 points per game, the Giants fourth at 30.2 ... The Saints defense leads the league with 10 interceptions ... Darren Sharper has 99 and 97-yard interception returns for touchdowns this season.

Finally, a real game against real NFL-caliber competition! After three weeks of playing NFL bottom-feeders our New York Giants face one of the league's elite today, the New Orleans Saints.

This will be a huge test for our boys today. Let's hope they measure up well. Use this as your Open Thread. Enjoy the game!
