If Suggs' arms were six inches longer, than yes. JPP's arms are ridiculous. Agreed. I noticed that as well... he needs to get some moves in his repertoire... if the speed rush and the bull rush failed, he seemed to fade.

If we don't fuck up and turn the ball over... what... 4 times in the Eagles game... then we probably win that game. Honestly, the NFC (and the NFL for that matter) is so wide open this year that aside from Jacksonville or the Rams, any of those teams could end up in the Super Bowl... though I think the Bears and Chiefs' chances are also somewhat limited.

You know, I was thinking the same thing. How many times have you called Corey Webster's number this season? If you don't hear about the guy on the other team's #1, he's doing a hell of a job. However, if the Redskins had Sinorice Moss instead of Santana as their #1, he would have been victimized for 567 yards and 8 TDs.

Fixed.

"I likeded it."

What's likely the problem is that Giants fans are smart, loyal, and know what's going on with their team. In Arizona, the stadium is 2/3rds full. 1/3 of the fans root for the Cards, another third roots for whoever the visiting team is, and a third of the stadium is empty. The Cards suck every year, so nobody pays attention to them unless they're doing well... hence, nobody boos the home team because: 1. they expect the Cards to suck, and 2. "wait, what was their record last year... and Kurt Warner is still the QB, right?" In the Meadowlands, there's history and tradition. Football is a pastime, but it's also what brings people together and is a way of life. Fans know that outside of the magical Super Bowl Win, Coughlin's teams always fade down the stretch and lose in the first round of the playoffs to the Eagles. They know the teams fuck up for the same reasons every year: turnovers and injuries. And as stated in the article, they pay GOOD money for tickets... they don't buy them from a scalper outside the stadium for eight bucks a piece... they actually expect their team to try and play hard for the money they've spent. Antrel Rolle hasn't known to this point what it's like to play for a team that has fans that actually CARE about their team, but he'll probably learn. "There's never a reason to boo the team" is a totally naive thing to say.

The NFC West sucks. Reminds me of the years that the 49ers would skate to a 13-3 record every year while the rest of the division finished 4-12.

I likeded it.

You think? I think a leader was born. Tuck took over that game... not just physically with his outstanding play, but he challenged his teammates to play better and they responded in kind. We haven't seen that out of a Giants player since Strahan's best years.

I think Gilbride is a decent (not great) playcaller who's offense is a bit overcomplicated and will royally fuck up at least two games per season when he tries to get too cute with his playcalling. By the way, that was a run-on sentence.

I'm pretty sure that's David Allen Coe's brother.

Fuck that dummy.

I hate to say it... but I don't think Andrews is going to be in blue next year. He's only been here for a few months and his back is acting up already.

That was before I saw the records today of all the other NFC teams.

...we don't make the playoffs. The end.

joe... you ARE the optimist. 9-7. We squeak into the playoffs.

...is that the same Brandon Marshall who's avaeraged 36 yards per game the past three weeks and is questionable this week with a hamstring injury?

Oh, whew. Problem solved, crisis averted.

We're going 9-7 and maybe sneaking in... but we'll lose in the first round of the playoffs again. Jacksonville is surging, we're flailing right now. This next week is no cakewalk. We split with the Skins, lose again to Philly, you're looking at 9-7. One weird, fluky loss puts us at 8-8.

Dodge needs to go. Period. I don't care if he's a Pro Bowler in two years, he's a fucking liability RIGHT NOW.

Gee... roaring off to a fast start, then hitting a mid-season slump where injuries and turnovers doom our team. Didn't see that one coming.

I've got us at 9-7 now, with 8-8 a possibility.

Eli did the same thing last year... slid FEET first, and still lost the ball. He's a fucking idiot when it comes to scrambling... a total embarrassment. The fumbles come down to coaching. When you see your backs and WRs holding the ball dangerously, it's up to the coach to correct that. Coughlin hasn't done this so far. Remember "high and tight?" What the hell ever happened to that?

Also... and I'm not a coach, so what do I know... but someone MIGHT want to teach Eli how to slide WITHOUT fumbling sans contact. I just sort of think that might be something that is good for him to learn.

Will Tom Coughlin get Hakeem Nicks and Ahmad Bradshaw to hold the ball TO THEIR FUCKING BODIES? You know, like you learn in Pop Warner?
