How good are these guys really? What did they do to make their defense not a laughing stock the last couple years? Without Strahan, Osi, and Gibril Wilson you'd think they would be.

I'm shocked by how easily they beat Seattle. Unless Seattle is a really bad team this year I thought it would be a fairly close game. At the very least I thought they'd put up more then 2 FGs on offense.

Seattle is a pretty bad team -- and any team crossing 3 time zones is at a disadvantage.

But getting whooped like that...wow.

The Giants seem to be pretty darn good to me. They're simply beating who they have had put in front of them and they're doing it pretty convincingly.

I'm really looking forward to the Giants/Cowboys game on Nov 2. Thats gonna be a hell of a game to watch and I'm just glad that the Skins play on Monday night and I'll be able to watch it in its entirety.

It'll be a great game, no doubt, but it will be one of those games that as a fan I won't be able to fully enjoy till it's over and only then if we won. lol

That game is going to be a doozie.

The way the Giants beat Seattle is pathetic. Seattle should just pack it in for the season.

The Giants are for real. I'm just glad the Commanders have one down against them already. Even though it was a loss.

You look at the Giants talent level and Skill postions and they don't really impress you, but they just keep on winning. I'm still not Sold on Eli, but they are well Coached. perhaps they were lucky to get the Commanders on Opening Weekend?.

I'll be kicking back and enjoying two NFC East teams slugging at it...but without the anxiety :)

I honestly think only Pittsburgh, Ravens (maybe), and Carolina have even a remote shot of being them outside the division.

Yeah, but I can't help but think...their defense was good...but our offense also was pretty darn bad in that game and we seemed flustered at the early deficit (unlike the Philly game). I hope Fed Ex is louder then its ever been for the Dallas and NY games...we'll need it to be.

Yeah, our offense has improved and we've shown mental toughness since then, but until proven otherwise the Giants are the masters of overcoming adversity and obstacles since the end of last season.

They kind of remind me of the Pats (the ones that won Super Bowls) before NE became a flashy team last year.

If you follow the Bengals season so far, it has taken a similiar path to the Commanders. They have been getting better and better each week. They sure didn't look like a 0-4 team vs. the G-Men or 0-5 team yesterday.

For sure...Palmer didn't even play against the Giants...did he?

Yeah he played. And he put up solid numbers as well.

27/39 286 yards vs the Giants
23/39 217 yards vs the Cowboys

Damn...we play them in December at Cincinatti...depending on alot of things that could very well be a trap game.

Division strength is amazing this year. Haven't seen it this strong top to bottom since the early 90s. Then you look at the NFC West in comparison and you see everyone below .500 exept for Arizona at 3-2.

Even people I know who are Steelers fans are saying that they realize they will be judged by how they perform against the NFC East in comparison to the Ravens. Say what you will about Steelers fans but most do know their football, I'll give them that.

The Giants look good, but I guess we won't know for sure until we get to play them.

I wasn't sure on the Commanders either until we played them. Now I believe they're going to be a thorn in our sides through the end of the year.

That's the only worthwhile thing that has ever come out of New York having a team.

I thinks its a combination of them being stacked at WR and RB. Seems all Eli has to do is throw it in the direction of a WR and they will catch it. They don't drop many passes. Also there defensive coordinator is really good and he knows how to play the blitz. Something I wish Stewart would learn

Now she's hot and all until she would speak and I would have to hear that annoying Yankee Northeast accent coming out of her mouth.
