Posted in Every week, I’ve been highlighting and grading the units of each team the Giants had to play, which is fun, but it’s not entirely relevant. On the Football field it doesn’t matter who’s WR corps is better, or which team has the better running back…what matters more is how the Giants WR corps lines up vs [...]

Blitz: Seems Like Old Times
Here’s my weekly post about the NY Giants on NFL’s Blog Blitz Clipped from: blogblitz.nfl.com (share this clip) Depending on which stats service you use, the Giants are either No. 1 or No. 2 in total defense. Without veteran DE Mathias Kiwanuka, Osi Umenyiora and Justin Tuck have stepped up their game in a big [...]
Comments OffEli Manning Overrated? Hardly. The Reasons Why I Love Eli Manning.
According to a poll down by SI, Eli Manning is the 5th most overrated player in the National Football League. T.O., Romo, Sanchez, and Haynesworth are ahead of Eli Manning on this poll based on the opinion of roughly 230 players. I don’t get it. Everyone here knows that I’m an Eli Manning apologist, but I [...]
What To Do With Hard Hits?
What’s your favorite part of a football game? Is it a great pass rush? What about a perfectly executed weakside blitz? Maybe it’s precision passing. Or, like most people, it’s the bone-crushing people. Every week, we look forward to see who has gotten “Jacked up!”We all make that collective “Oh!” every time Ray Lewis lays into somebody. [...]
Jean-Paul Bergeaux’s List of Things for Week Six
Things I know. The Pittsburgh Steelers continue to be a top notch organization. Say what you will, and we don’t know how this season will finish, but the Steelers prove once again that they know how to build quality teams and pick quality coaches. Ben Roethlisberger sounded really contrite (we’ll see) in his pre-return interviews. [...]
Tags: Is It Real? Giants One of Best Defenses in League?
Just how good is this NY Giants defense. I think the answer to this question can allude to what this team will be at seasons end. I’m not purely a numbers guy, although I do love numbers. And I was looking at some numbers about the Giants defense this morning, and let me tell you. [...]
Giants Release Graham, Awarded Meredith On Waivers
The Shayne Graham era is over. The Giants released him today, and were awarded offensive lineman Jamon Meredith off waivers from the Lions. The release of Graham means that Lawrence Tynes’ sprained ankle is healed enough for him to go Monday Night in Dallas. Meredith is an interesting name. I was a huge fan of [...]
Comments OffGiants Extend Winning Streak, Beat Lions 28-20
So, sorry for the late game post, but I was at the game, so hopefully you can forgive me. We’ll do the game recap in Thoughts and Musings style, meaning no Thoughts and Musings tomorrow. Let’s do it. -First, a note on the Stadium. It’s quite nice. A huge improvement over the last stadium. But [...]
Giants Lions Game Preview
The 1-4 Lions are coming to the New Meadowlands to take on the 3-2 Giants. This has all the makings of a trap game: The Giants are hot, the Lions do have a lot of talent. Can the Giants avoid a letdown? INJURIES: Giants: OUT: OL Will Beatty (foot), DE Mathias Kiwanuka (neck), DB Brian [...]

Eli Manning have a 195 yards passing and no touchdowns and no interceptions. Brandon Jacobs ran 12 times for [...]
