They should be happy for their schedule timing because they get to play Denver while they are falling. They also got to play Oakland at their weakest too. We are playing Oakland with their confidence up and we played Denver with a healthy Orton and confidence up.

To me a scary team is one who is fighting to stay alive. Denver has a lot riding on this game I will not be surprised to see Denver win at home.

The whining about Dallas hosting the annual Thanksgiving game should cease now that the league features a Thursday night game on NFL Network for most of the season.

Key word: should.

It should, but it won't.

I think Denver wins this game. They have lost 4 in a row, 2 in a row at home and the Giants aren't exactly great lately.

the 10 days benefit us more than NY, NY will be the same team if they had a week or two, our defense will play with more intensity and maybe Garrett will come up with a new wrinkle or two for our offense.

The last time we played Bruce Gradowksi on Turkey day, we went to NY next and romo hit witten to setup the field goal to win.

if anyone recalls that is the game Jeremy Shockey said "No way in Hell Dallas can beat us"

What I am waiting for is the awful NY media to start with there Romo cant win a big game in december and can not win up here in NY in a big game in December, when in fact he has already done that.......none of them will bring that up though....watch and see.

Exactly, I hate everything about New York. Players, fans, media - the only thing I respect is their coaching staff.

Romo's record against them is 4-4 (including playoffs) right? But you'd think he's 0-8 the way the G-Men talk smack.

A little better than that.

2006 - Beat them in NYG and he didn't start the game in Dallas. 1-1, being generous.

2007 - Sweep in the reg, loss in the post - 2-1

2008 - Only played in one of the games - 1-0

2009 - 0-1

4-3, if you give him the loss when he stepped in for Bledsoe.

Are you seriously going to deny that at 6-0 they looked very good?

That's just plain silly and driven by a very stupid agenda.

It's 4-2 against Sheli and the Midgets. He didn't start that Bledsoe game.

He has done well overall against them. If not for Crayton and Fasano, he beat them in the playoffs too, but he can't catch his own passes. He has laid ONE egg against them and STILL left the field with the lead until the defense collapsed at the end and the Giants kicked the game winner this year.

Romo was clutch at Giants stadium in that big game in '07 and was the man against them last year in a December must-win game for Dallas. He was battered that game and limping around and made a huge, clutch throw to Crayton. That game was supposed to be "career-defining" according to some in the media before the game. I believe it was Theisman who actually said that. Never heard anything about that again though. Thanks to the defense's collapse against the Ravens, and the teams total collapse against the Eagles, that clutch December performance is forgotten.

I really hope the whole team steps up this December, especially against the Giants.

But I'm sure they will cry because they have to play on the road during a short week. Hopefully they will be crying afterwards once Brandon Marshall puts up a big night on the G-men.

Check.

Just as football fans are finishing up their holiday dinner on Thanksgiving night, the Giants will be getting ready for kickoff 1,750 miles away from home in Denver.

How does the organization feel about it? Not happy.

Giants co-owner John Mara told the Daily News it's a competitive disadvantage for his team to play two time zones away in a short week. Mara filed a complaint with the NFL claiming the scheduling is unfair.

Bradshaw's on crutches and Jacobs has a knee injury but he's playing. It's going to be a passing game for the Giants, Denver's secondary is going to need to step up and the offense is going to have to score some pts.

I think the short week, traveling to Mile High, injuries, and a decent game by Orton against NY's secondary and the Giants drop their thanksgiving game. When's the last time the giants played on Thanksgiving? It has to be foreign to them, going to Denver no less.

Denver 24
Giants 21

I hope they bring the heat on Sheli like no one has ever seen.

If their running game isn't working, and there is pressure on Sheli, it's lights out.

If Atlanta had ANY kind of secondary playing last week, NY would be sitting at 5-5 right now. They're so beat up at CB, it's no wonder they lost.

The freaking coin flip didn't help either. Both team's needed that toss to win, IMHCO.

You are still the Troll of trolls. You are no longer amusing BTW. I'm putting you on ignore until hopefully you get banned for something. Then I won't even see where I can't see you. It'll be like Vanishing Point but without a shred of Kool.
