November 14, 200619 yr What are the odds of NEITHER Manning blowing up and throwing 3-5 interceptions in a playoff game. I say about as good as Boise State winning the national title this year.
November 14, 200619 yr What if The Giants and the Colts played each other in the Superbowl? It's not going to happen, because Peyton is incapable of elevating his game to the degree needed to get the Colts there. But if it did, it would the first time in a very long time that I've cheered for the Giants.

November 14, 200619 yr So you are saying the Giants have a shot at making it, but the Colts do not? I think it depends on Tiki Barber's hand. The Giants have been winning lately IN SPITE of Eli, not BECAUSE of him. Brandon Jacobs is a great goal-line back but if Tiki can't hold onto the ball the Giants are done.

Brandon Jacobs is also better than just a goal line back...he's a great running back period. I wish they'd give him the ball 10 times a game at least. Eli has had one, maybe 2 bad games all year...he led them to a beautiful come back win in philly. He also had a decent game in Dallas. He's had 2 bad games...he'll be okay.

Eli is the 17th rated quarterback in the league. He has only broken 80 on the quarterback rating once in the last 5 games and is tied for 3rd in the league for most interceptions. This team is going nowhere in the playoffs.

This team is going nowhere in the playoffs. :laugh: Tiki fumbled once, on a bad QB/RB handoff. It wasn't really anyone's fault there Coughlin hasn't hidden any injuries that I'm aware of since he's been with the giants. Trust me, I follow them, I read up on the injury reports weekly...daily actually. It's not hidden that the Giants have around half of their defensive starters, and two offensive starters on the sidelines injured. Eli's rating doesn't bother me. He's made some dumb passes, but he's made some great ones as well. You can think what you want, but the rest of the NFC has done exactly NOTHING to make me think that the Giants don't have a shot in the playoffs. The Bears didnt overly impress me last night. The giants , like I said, had a ton of injuries, yet still hung right in there for most of the game. Get most of their injured guys back...and they will be fine.
November 14, 200619 yr We shall see. I just don't see any way this team makes it to the NFC title game, let alone the Super Bowl. For what its worth that handoff hit Tiki in the numbers, he grabbed at it and dropped it. Even the announcers commented that it seemed as though his hand was affecting his game. If they were wrong then it could only be his nerve--and I don't believe that. Of course that is about the only time Eli hit anyone with a Giants jersey in the numbers!
November 14, 200619 yr So you are saying the Giants have a shot at making it, but the Colts do not? Umm, yeah. I thought I made that pretty clear in the post.
November 14, 200619 yr What's more surprising? This quote: Brandon Jacobs is also better than just a goal line back...he's a great running back period. Or the one that follows: I wish they'd give him the ball 10 times a game at least. A great running back that only gets the ball 10 times a game?
November 14, 200619 yr What's more surprising? This quote: Or the one that follows: A great running back that only gets the ball 10 times a game? Just being blinded by those G-Men glasses. The Giants and Brandon Jacobs are okay, nothing more, nothing less.
November 14, 200619 yr Umm, yeah. I thought I made that pretty clear in the post. Just making sure I read that right.
