Smart. Give everybody an extra week to get healthy and don’t disrupt the flow we’ve got going.

This is an out of conference game— as nice as a W would be (and certainly possible)— a L doesn’t hurt too much and won’t be the end of the world.

No reason to try and rush anyone back early this week…

What's the deal with Gallimore? Thought he was only going to be out 4 weeks or so
McCarthy told us a week or two ago Gallimore would be back after the bye week. I recommend paying attention to the coach, he passes on good information to us fans so we don't be asking silly questions like, "what about so and so". ;)

Ok, this is going to sound silly but, isn't "Pink eye" contagious? :)
I agree... this sounds silly. It's contagious if you rub eyeballs or you let his eye drip on you. How likely is that?

Pink eye? He’s hitting up the strip clubs hard.

i thought i heard Stephen Jones make mentioned that Gallimore, Dlaw could still be a month or so away from returning.
That was a real bummer. Especially when i thought Neville's return was right around the corner.

i still have no idea what's gonna be the deal with Trysten Hill. Even when he is eligible to come off PUP or IR List.
What we get out of him could be a luxury.

Told you it was silly. :) Never had it, just didn't know if someone could touch a towel he wiped his face with and be affected.

Yes, it is very contagious!! Hopefully, no one was getting anywhere near his eye!!
Finger eye - finger football - football -10 -15 other guys. Oh no = pink eye outbreak - everybody on quarantine!

Any other year for the Cowboys nobody would care about a Cowboys DB having pink eye because they don't touch the ball!

I consider Hill a non-factor. And it looks like the Cowboys do too.

As a former elementary educator...YES! LOL....The entire Giants' skill positions are going to be dealing with pink eye (not really). It is contagious, but if his hands weren't in his eyes, there's little chance of transferring it.

Yes, very. More so via contact than aerosol is my understanding, but I think contact happens sometimes in tackle football. I had a case a few years ago that had me stay at home for 3 straight weeks (it was a viral form that was going around the city I lived in at the time).

That said, it's not really life threatening so I suppose that's why he stayed around. Just a PITA.

I'm not thinking about losing to the annoying patriots, not ever.

His hands were all over the football
Jones may have more than a headache
