Anyone think Giants London trip will hurt them?

Normally I wouldn't have thought it, but an ex-player on ESPN (might have been Qadry Ismail) said when they went over there it affected them for a month. I found that kind of hard to believe, but with an off week I would imagine they'll be well rested. But SOME teams don't play sharp or crisp after a bye: I was thrilled with how sharp Dallas was against philly after their bye. Time will tell: my keys are the same as most everyone else for this game: 1) Stop their run game 2) Beat their Blitz with passes to MB3 and slants to our WR's 3) contain Plax like we contained Westbrook

Not really. They flew back that day and had the week off. They will be ready.

Only their confidence on how they played.

Exactly, a game of this magnitude provides extra motivation....It would be different if they were playing a mediocre team......This game is like "viagra" to them.......

No, I think having a ****ty quarterback will hurt them, though.

According to FO, he's the 26th best QB in the league.

It shouldn't be an issue given their bye week. However, if they lose, I'm sure the media will be using that as the reason.

I agree. Manning looked bad in that game and had Jacobs not lead the Giants with 131 yard rushing they very well could have lost that game. The fact Miami continued to hurt themselves helped out as well.

Wow... just when you thought Cleo Lemon was gonna do it... he didnt.... that game was there for Miami to take..... they just played like a winless team... like the Jets... they should be 5-4, 4-5 at worst... Pennington gave that game to Giants and the Jets team gave that last game to Washington.

I agree just when you though Lemons was going to get something going he would screw up and kill the drive. Right now Miami is finding ways to lose games.

As funny as this sounds... I thought for sure that Miami was gonna win.... it seemed like the Giants commited the cardinal sin of letting a team hang around......

I agree. I felt the Jets were going to get them as well but just as it was in the Miami game the Jets made some big unforced mistakes that hurt them.
