Great call on the QB sneak.

Another leap by Westbrook would have gotten in too.

Predictable playcalling, but I'll take it.
McNabb for the TD was huge there.
Getting the 7 there was obviously a big turn of events. Asante picking Eli in those winds, well - why exactly aren't the Giants running left all the time? They have 3 good RBs - they should be running over 65% of the time.
Those winds are huge, just like the last trip Philly took to the Meadowlands.

Probably because you don't stick the football out front like that except maybe on the GL

Does Philly host if they win? That is what the announcer said during last nights game but I thought the teams maintain their seeding (Arizona #4 and Philly #6). I didnt think homefield was determined by record.

No Philly goes to Arizona if they win.

Dawkins looks like he is ready to pick up a spearing penalty on any given play.

I thought so. Figures Kenny Albert was wrong.

Someone has to let Eli know he needs to put a little less air under his throws. You simply cannot loft touch passes today.

Agreed. I wonder if Jacobs is hurt. The Giants are not winning this game without Jacobs.

3rd series?As someone else pointed out recently, the last month or so Ward has been the man the 3rd series of each game the two of them played in

you had to know Jacobs isn't 100% and in game shape. Easy to run your mouth about how good you feel when you are in practice, but playing at a playoff level i think his knee is still bothering him

I think you are gonna see when the teams have the wind at their back they wil take chances down the field. Going the other way it will be tight.

By the same token, the Eagles are not winning this game without some threat of a run.
Nope. They do this all teh time. I owned Jacobs in fantasy and it frustrated the hell out of me.Ward is dangerous and can make some big plays, but he seems to have a ton of no-gains before it happens. Plus, it's a lot less of a pounding on teh defenders.

At some point they are going to have to throw a flag for all of this shoving after the play.

Considine with a big hit. I guess there's a first time for everything.

Big play by.....Considine?????
He didn't suck on that play. Great hit!
Hold me back! LOLMcNabb freaking stinks!!!Just kidding Junior...........
well there's 25 teams that need to admit wrongdoing in some fashion. The Pats boasting of being 11-5 and not making the playoffs is as stupid as Jerry Jones saying the Cowboys are fine.

They dont have to rethink a thing. They went 11-5 without Tom Brady and missing Adalius Thomas most of the year. They picked a pretty good LB last year in Jared Mayo. They have a 1st, 2 2nds and 2 3rds this year. They get Thomas back next year and need to draft to improve their pass rush. That will make the cornerbacks they have look very adequate.

2nd quarter - wind now changes for the teams. Who will take advantage?
Philadelphia won Q1 with the wind, 7-3. If they hold on to a lead into halftime, they should be very happy as they'll get the ball first after intermission.

Isn't there a Patriots offseason thread somewhere other than in this one?

Weird call for the Giants. 3rd and 7, empty backfield? Deep throw?
A first down and you enter long FG range.
Then Eli gets protection and throws deep into double coverage?
Seems like that call helped Philly.

Some non-playoff teams' fans get very touchy this time of year.
He was fighting off a block and still had the awareness to locate teh ball, stay out of the endzone, and bat it backwards. Very nice.The Giants are normally very good at running in the 4th Q, "back breaking" good like 5-7 yards per carry. The Eagles have fared far better against them in 08 though. 1 Brandon Jacobs rb 2007 6 34 5.67 1 0 3.40 2 Ahmad Bradshaw rb 2008 7 31 4.43 1 0 3.10 3 Derrick Ward rb 2007 4 23 5.75 1 0 2.30 4 Brandon Jacobs rb 2008 6 23 3.83 2 1 8.30 5 Reuben Droughns rb 2007 4 10 2.50 1 0 1.00 6 Derrick Ward rb 2008 4 2 0.50 0 0 0.40 Coughlin might be keeping some fresh legs for the 4th.
