I do. I think at a minimum we will split the next two games.

I think we have a good team to beat Philly and NY.

NY is playing lights out. They are the highest scoring offense in the league right now. Everyone has got to get a hat on someone or we dont have a shot.

I believe we will win the REST of them--I really do!

However, we might not.......but, I will be fighting with my boys until the dying end!

Philly showed what they were made of today, coming back from 17-0 to win with authority. Enough said.

The Giants are playing very good. Eli is moving the offense and they have a lot of weapons - Barber, Burress and Shockey. Barber will rack up receptions as well as yards on the ground so that makes him a real nice weapon for them. The Giants are also playing incredible against the run.

These will be 2 tough games and really show us where we stand in our division.

If we could split them, winning the ones at TS, I'd be thrilled.

So you think this is a 14-2 football team? Having faith is one thing, but don't be ridiculous.

I agree. These are two VERY tough teams at the point in the year. I can realistically seeing the Boys beating the Giants if they play up to their potential, but I keep seeing Strahan....coming out of nowhere to clobber Bledsoe. The Eagles....sorry, just don't see a win at this juncture.

I think we will be lucky to win one of the next two games.

I'll be glad to be 3-3 in 2 weeks.

I agree, both games will be very tough but believe we can pull it out. The Giants O is playing well and they will have 2 weeks to prepare for us, but their defense just isn't very good. San Diego exposed them last week. We will be able to keep both games close and will have an opportunity to win them.

(I also think the Giants' wins have come against stinky teams)

We are going to take hellacious beatings the next two weeks. It will be so uglythat we'll be screaming like schoolgirls at the conclusion of each contest... and may collectively have to go on the "Dr. Phil" show to get our swagger back.

I believe we can beat any team in the league if we can run the football with some sucess.

We can win them, and honestly I can see us winning them both, losing them both, or splitting them.

To me the key is getting Julius going.

Gee, thanks for singlehandedly generating three more "The Sky's Not Falling" threads.

If you guys don't like honest answers, don't ask questions.

Look the truth of the matter is we have to play a hell of a lot better than we have these first 4 games in order to beat Philly or NY.

Barlow and Jordan ran all over us thes past 2 weeks.


We let one of the worst pass rushes sack Bledsoe 4 times and pressure him a hell of a lot more than they should have. He was getting hurried and knocked around all game.

Julius seems to be in a little bit of a slump here. Whether it is due to bad run blocking, him not finding the lanes or him being injured I don't know. What I do know is he will have to average more than 3.5 ypc or whatever he has at this point if we want to beat Philly or NY. So much stems from the running game - the use of play action and controlling the clock are just 2 examples. We need to be more efficient here.

There are just too many unknowns at this point.
