  1. I think the Giants are capable of winning the next 3 (@Wash, Jets, @Miami)...putting them at 8-5.

     

    I think the Redskins can go 1-2 over the next 3 (L - Giants, L - Dallas, W - @ Chicago)...putting them at 5-8

     

    I think the Eagles can go 2-1 over the next 3 (W - Detroit, L- New England, W - Buffalo)...putting them at 6-7

     

    I think the Cowboys go 2-1 over the next 3 (L - Carolina, W - @ Washington, W - @ Green Bay)...putting them at 5-8

     

    But then it kinda flips for the Giants because the final 3 games seem to favor the rest of the division.

    • Giants will have Carolina, @ Minnesota, and Philadelphia to wrap up the season. If the Giants win just 1 of these 3, I think they take the division at 9-7...especially if that win is over Philadelphia. If they wrap up 9-7 and lose to Philadelphia in that final game, it'll get significantly tighter. Realistically, I think the Giants top out at 9-7.
    • Redskins have Buffalo, @ Philadelphia, @ Dallas for their final 3 games. Two away division games to end the season is rough for any team in the league. Further, Buffalo isn't a walkover. Even with a positive look at it, I see the Redskins winning 2 of those, at most...so Redskins top out at 8-8.
    • Eagles have Arizona, Washington, @Giants to wrap up the year. I think given their performance this past Sunday, they're going to be hard pressed to beat Arizona, but they'll beat Washington. If that puts them at 7-8 when they play the potentially 8-7 Giants...the game would be for the division and I'd expect the Eagles to fight for it.
    • Cowboys final 3 are probably the easiest of the bunch with Jets, @Buffalo, Washington. If they win those - they could easily wrap up the year 8-8 with a 4-2 division record...sweeping Washington and splitting with both the Giants and Eagles.

    I guess the moral of the story is that it's anybody's division still.

     

    Cowboys have most pressure to essentially win out to get back in the overall record race. The big tests are Carolina and Green Bay. Cowboys could lose 1 of the two, but certainly not both. Two division games against Washington seem like Cowboys wins, but division games are never easy.

     

    Redskins probably have the easiest 6 games remaining...but 4 division games could argue otherwise.

     

    Giants...need to win 3 games with two of those being against Washington and Philadelphia. Do that, and pick up 1 from Jets, @Miami, Carolina, or @Minnesota - and the division is pretty much locked up I'd think...even if they went 8-8.

     

    Eagles have the toughest 6 games remaining with 2 division games, @ New England, and Arizona lined up for them. I think the best case scenario for them there is winning 3 of those 4...but more likely they lose 3 of those 4.

    The Eagles are falling apart down here ... the team is revolting, the City wants Chip fired

     

    I will be surprised if they win another game this season

     

    Dallas needs to lose this Thursday to put some distance away from us. I think Washington is a fraud and will fall apart

  2.  

    I hope ODB now knows to tuck the ball this body after the catch instead of laying it out there for the defender to slap it...

     

    Yep. I was thinking the same thing. SOmeone needs to tell this guy that he is not a video game that he has to do more than one handed circus catches, although they are fun to watch.

  3. I can't completely fault McAdoo on this one. Collins dropped the pick, OBJ dropped the TD pass and they had the Pats at 4th and 10 at the end of the game. They had their chances to close this out.

  4. That's all I can say .. The Giants played far better than I ever thought they could and had 2 chances to put the game away at the end and fell short. Maybe this was the game that knocked some sense into them and got them to believe they can can actually win big games. Who knows, but this one is going to sting them for awhile.

  5. Fun fact that I threw on another thread about the upcoming game with the Pats.

     

    Tom Coughlin is 5-1 in his NFL head-coaching career against Bill Belichick.

    2-0 when Coughlin’s Jaguars beat Belichick’s Browns twice in 1995

    1-1 in two Giants-Patriots regular-season games

    and most famously, 2-0 in Super Bowls

     

    TC is inside Belichick's head.

    yeah I dont think so ... I think this is going to be a beat down of epic proportions

  6. I heard on the radio a suggestion that the Patriots will line Amendola or their other slot receiver guy up in the backfield and send them on routes from there in order to create mismatches. I can't help but think that that approach would be quite effective against us.

     

    This seems like it'll be another shootout because I'm not confident our defense will holdup at all. Matter of fact, Patriots could likely not dress their punter this week and save that roster spot for someone else.

     

    I am guessing, the Patriots merely showing up would be quite effective against us

  7. Collins has looked lost all season. Mainly due to injuries, he was thrown into the fire on day one and simply wasn't (isn't) ready. In a perfect world, he would have been spoon fed a little at a time, gradually increasing his responsibilities and playing time as he learned and developed. Unfortunately, we didn't have that luxury. Anyway, I just hope that's the case and not that he's a bust......because he's been bad. Real bad.

     

    I disagree. He has been up and down. There were times when he played great and times when he looked like he should be selling hot dogs in the stands ... he will get better. He could be worse, he could be Demontre Moore.
