Seriously.

I guess they didn't "owe Philadelphia" one bit, did they? Because they got manhandled for the vast majority of that game. And not just one of their offensive lineman, but all of them.

I'm counting on the Cowboys' defense to feast this Sunday!

Ha so true.

I guess you have to beat them 5 times in a row (like we have) for them to finally "owe you". lol

A win over the Giants would really hurt their division chances. They would be 0-2 against the Cowboys and have 3 losses in the division. Hope that we win because the Giants players are always talking trash before the games between the two teams.

The Giants are a team on the mend right now and it shows. They're not playing at their best, that's for sure. Being as how it's a division game and in the Meadowlands, though, anything can happen. I'm hoping the C'boys passrush proves just as effective as Philly's did last night. If that should happen, we've got a great opportunity to pull off a tough win against a team that isn't playing at it's best right now. It could also be tough on them to beat us coming off a bye and with them still smarting over injuries and that nasty beatdown in Philly. I like our chances.

They've owed us for a while. 5 straight wins vs the Little Giants.

Pay up already or shut your piehole.

Seriously, right after getting a beatdown by the Eagles :laugh:



After the Philly game, the Giants are likely grasping at anything they can to get refocused. Revenge is always a great motivator.

The Dallas D will need to step up big time on Sun if we are going to win. The NYG D is scrappy and tough-- I just don't see the Dallas offensive attack being able to control the game all that much. BUT-- if Hardy and the D can generate consistent pressure on Eli, and (more importantly), the tackling at the 2nd and 3rd levels improve-- we will be in the game at the end with a chance to win it.

I sure wouldn't want to face that many nasty dudes.

The Philly D Line absolutely whipped the NYG OL last night. That said-- Coughlin and Eli tend to have good bounce back efforts following a bad performance, and for whatever reason, Eli saves his best games for us.

They will be ready to rumble on Sunday-- and I can only hope the Dallas D comes ready to rip their hearts out and do whatever they have to do to win this game. We need this one bad...

Dallas' front 7 will win up front and cause NY problems.

The concern is the Dallas offense doing enough moving the ball and punching it in the end zone.

I think this is a game Dallas wins if they get 24-26 points.

True, as we do not know how the Offense will come out and perform with Cassel. But we put up points with Weeden on Falcons and Saints. Then nothing on NE. We can and should get to that 24 point level again.

But the D let down in those games, in the 2nd half on Falcons and Saints. But showed what it could be in the first half against NE. Still dropped off in the 2nd half, but not as bad. NE made adjustments, and we changed the defense up, but to no avail in the 2nd half. I don't see that happening again. They need to play 4 quarters from here on out. Eli is not Brady, and their OL looked like a sieve. However They always have a way of playing better against us. But this time with Hardy, Ro, Gregory will be back too. Lee can stay in for the full game will be big.

As soon as he left the Falcons game, they went right down and scored, he left the Saints game, things changed. I don't believe he was 100% against NE.
Well, now they are all back and all healthy, that we know of. D will need to set up the O these next 4 games.

I might end up being completely wrong, but I feel 100% confident we'll beat the Vagiants. We're well rested, in the best health we've been all season, and our pass rush SHOULD give them fits. I think our defense will get after them all game long. We also have a bit of an advantage considering the Giants have never seen Cassell as our QB and Michaels as our primary RB. We should be able to throw some new looks their way. Of course, all this is assuming we get decent QB play, which is an unknown. If we don't turn the ball over, we win.
