ProFootballWeekly.com - Giants RB Brown merits more work
There’s most definitely a place for Bradshaw, and the team hasn’t by any means given up on rookie David Wilson, or shelved him for his first season.

At 2-2, Packers, Pats headed for playoffs; Cowboys, Bills are not - NFL.com
The Giants' strategy and play selection at the end of their loss to the Philadelphia Eagles was curious. They needed a field goal. Taking the chuck-and-duck approach without Hakeem Nicks was baffling. Run the ball and put Lawrence Tynes in a position to succeed. But as I wrote in this space last Tuesday, the Giants still are the cream of the NFC East crop.

Bottom line: With Eli Manning, Tom Coughlin and a championship fiber, they will go 10-6 and win the division.
