In week 6...yeah they do. But, the season is a marathon. Dallas "stinks" right now too but most fans of the Boys believe they will be relevant later this season. So why can't the same be said about other teams? Why can't health and momentum apply to others?

Just saying...

It's a long long road, just hope the Cowboys are strong at the end of the road where it makes a turn into the playoffs .

Yessir...my thoughts exactly. Hope Dallas just stays afloat and in the mix until all the forces are there...(no more injuries in between either please!!!)

Unfortunately it won't matter much if Sheli consistently gets the ball out in less than 3 seconds. And just looking at our tape thus far this season that's precisely how I make my game plan, ball out quick to exploit the below average Dallas secondary

Meh. It isn't like the Eagles secondary is all that great themselves.

I think Brady got the ball out the quickest in the NFL and look what happened to him.

The Giants don't have the luxury of Brady and Belichek. Eli will turn the ball over if we bring the same pass rush we did against NE

We will bring a better more rested and healthier pass rush against Eli.

Agreed. Hardy is a difference maker. McClain in the middle will help a lot too.

I was scoping the Giants forum, apparently Newhouse was getting bullied quite a bit. Granted the Eagles front 7 is pretty legit, but Hardy against a rookie and Gregory on Newhouse on pass rushing downs looks to be a huge mismatch. I expect Hardy to give Flowers a complete schooling.

McClain will help the run game, and theirs is severely lacking already. Lee on underneath routes if they want to get the ball out quick will be deadly.

I think our front 7 is going to be feared after this game. And I fully expect Lee to come up with a pick. He really has Eli's number, and with a legitimate pass rush, it's in the tea leaves my friend.

I think @jobberone said the Eagles weren't bad. Good Dline LBs.

The answer is QB.

Piles of ****akke are offended by how bad he stinks

I don't see Bradford as elite but I see him as slightly above average. We are so incredibly spoiled by Romo and many appear to forget there aren't even 32 decent QB starters in the NFL. So even marginally above average is not so bad. Average is average.

Bradford would be a backup on my team if I were so lucky. That's unless I had no one better. I wouldn't have traded for him either. I see those as less than optimal decisions.

Bradford, IMO, isn't a bad QB. He just isn't a good one.

Philly is 3-3 so he must be doing something at least ok at times.

We are really down when Jobberone compares Bradford to not being bad, we would be calling for someone's head if Bradford was here for his first five game performances. That is how desperate we have become at the QB position, better put on some gloves as the ride is going to start to get fast this week zoners. I so agree we have been spoiled with Romo.

He is a lifetime 80 rating qb with 9 tds and 9 it's this year. Backup maybe, but this guy was hyped into Dan Marino by many. He makes atropics decisions on throws and should have lost tonight if their defense didnt dominate. Sanchez is no worse

Compared to Romo he would not be welcomed here so ur right. He's a slightly better than average NFL starter.

He got that rating on terrible Ram teams. Don't mischaracterize my evaluation. It's clear I'm not endorsing him. We'll see how good or bad he is at the end d of the year. Other than him being a starting QB for a rival NFC East team I don't give a crap about the guy

My comment was about pundits. .Esiason, simms, et al

Philly won't go anywhere meaningful w him at qb and that oline.

Defense is good if they aren't overworked. Maxwell sucks

Maxwell makes Carr look like a bargain for the value we receive.

No other teams in the NFL have top 5 QB and receiver returning to ther lineups.

Bradford and Eli can both have good occasionally better games. But they are erratic, can rattle and are just too inconsistent at times. Both can get hot, too. So I don't diminish them as they can beat you. But I don't put either in the top ten and I personally put them in the third tier although at times as above they will elevate their play. So I'd never dismiss either and I wouldn't put them 'they suck' category. They are just undependable to consistently play at a high level.

They'd be backups in Dallas; GB, NE, Denver, Chi and others.

We've seen this show every NFL week on the Giants sidelines.

That was a joke of a game both teams look like curd. Who could screw up the most and in the end it was the Giants but no way would I be feeling great if I was Philly, they have some issues. I watched the game with my dad and we both came away feeling that Dallas is still very much in this race. Dallas gets major players back these 2 teams are pretty much set outside of Cruz for NY but then Cruz only helps a little he can't fix the giants problem in pass blocking
