After watching the Giants/Bears game, and after seeing a few Giants games this year, you really get the feeling when watching them that they play with their hearts on their sleeves. When things go bad, Shockey is yelling and whining, Barber is doing the same, and Eli just sits there with his pouty face. And when they reach that point, things seem to go downhill and they get even worse.
I don't notice that too much with the Cowboys. I see the secondary of our defense get frustrated a bit, but we have never been a team that gives up. In Philly and Jacksonville we just kept fighting.
I think some more about it, and I think this attitude is consistent with their quarterbacks. Romo exudes confidence, he acts as if every play is the same, and every play he knows he will succeed. The team acts like this. Eli Manning on the other hand looks like his best friend just got shot and the world is about to end. Everyone's already commented on Romo's confidence, but has anyone else noticed Eli's lack thereof (when things go bad)? He almost looks scared out there.
Oh, and will Eli ever stop looking like he's Peyton's little brother?
So summing it up, I guess what I'm saying is I feel like down the stretch we can expect the Giants to give up quite a few games they shouldn't because they just get overly frustrated. They have quite a few hotheads/whiners on the team, and the worst thing is they are their most important players.
And as far as Romo goes...I'm far more confident about him than I am about the other young QBs (Eli Manning, Rex Grossman, etc).
