The New York Giants host the Philadelphia Eagles at New Meadowlands Stadium on Sunday 12/19/10. Kickoff time is 1:00 pm EST Discuss….
Remind me again...how many yards did they rush for 3 weeks ago? EAGLES never let me down in the old Meadowlands when I was there and they won't in the new either.
The Cowboys' rushing attack is not quite like the Giants'. We shall.....should be a good one. :icon_cool:
Eagles-Giants for first place in December. NFC East football. These are the kind of games that make me love the NFL. I can't freaking wait.
See....I'm more of a Eagles Redskins or Eagles Lions in ugly throwback jersey type of game guy. Games like this give me an ulcer.
Amen to that. If a game like this doesn't get your blood flowing then you need to quit watching football. This is the kind of game where I have to make myself try to relax. Every freaking play is live or die! Hook me up to a freaking oxygen tank and give me a a vodka IV! :fu06:
I totally agree that it's hard to relax and ulcer inducing, but that's what makes them so great. After the game I'll either be totally elated or hating that I was ever born. It's a total playoff game.
I usually don't get totally elated till the next day (especially when nervously walking through parking lots of angry guidos) I am either miserable or just sort of relieved immediately after.
Ha ha...understandable about walking out their building. I do the opposite though, and turn from elation from a victory in a huge game, to then feeling just relieved that the team survived as I focus more on the things done poorly as it could effect the team in the future.
Giants finally have their whole offensive line back, which means they won't telegraph their running game to the Eagles like they did 3 weeks ago. Giants ran the ball 95% of the time off the right side. Losing Steve Smith is big but they have a stable of fill ins that include Travis Beckum and Darek Hagan. Nicks and Manningham will be out there. So the Eagles aren't going to load 8-9 guys in the box. The Giants defense is main cog here for this team. They have to play like they did last week and the week against the Eagles. They need to keep good edge containment and gap integrity. Keeping that safety deep is also crucial. I can't see the Giants playing as poorly as they did 3 weeks ago with the crucial penalties and turnovers. The Eagles offense is a machine but their defense over the last few weeks has given up plenty of points. Giants are at home. Eagles 20 Giants 30
Silly McNabb talk got me distracted from what is going to be one hell of a fight come Sunday. Man, I sure would love to have our Pro Bowl cornerback in the game but I don't think he'll dress. Won't make a difference. Eli will throw a few crapty passes that we ought to capitalize on, Jacobs and Bradshaw will meet our wall once again, and the offense will have figured out one of two things: either how to protect Vick from taking hits so fast by keeping in an extra blocker or two, or how to get the ball out of his hands faster. This is a little worrisome: Eagles Vs Giants: Jamar Chaney Takes Center Stage - SB Nation Philly Eagles with the win.
game of the week. no question. probably will decide the division. i think it's an equal match-up. should be fun to watch.
