I know its 2 weeks away but the Giants could be down their top 2 WRs Nicks and Smith when they travel to Washington. Seems like The giants could be in for a long stretch if they want to make the playoffs. They host the HOT Jags this sunday.

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

Nicks is a Pro Bowler this year, He is dominating defenses so this is a HUGE plus for us.. I hate to see injuries but lets face it, we have our share

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

The g-men looked dominant a few weeks back, now they're starting to drop like flies & don't look as tough. We'll have our hands full no matter what w/them.

Well if we win that game. This injury to Nicks will be the reason. Just another losing win ;)

Seriously, the Giants season seems to be losing momentum, I thought for sure they were taking the Div. Now I'm not so sure. Has anyone else noticed that deer in headlight look in Eli's face lately?

I'm still awed at how well the Skins played with all the injuries we suffered. HTTR!!!

Manningham is a playmaker in his own right.

I thought he would be a superstar out of Mich, he's solid but no Nicks

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

I guess it will come down to which offense will be able to capitalize on either short fields or possible turnovers. Although right now I think they may have the better running game. I would love for us to get a W against them though, they've had our number the past couple of seasons.

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

They have a lot of injuries on the OL and WR positions. Basically we'll be evenly matched.

holy smokes that is a HUGE loss ... man o man we better take care of business this weekend .. this season could turn around in a big way if we win against the Vikings .

HUGE is a understatement

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

Things might be falling into place at just the right time for us, injuries notwithstanding. I don't wish injury on other players but Hicks getting injured will help us tremendously because he's been a beast this season. Of course we have our own injuries to deal with but some of them *coughCaseyRabachArtisHickscough* might be a blessing in disguise. I'd rather have key guys like Landry and Rogers back than guys like Hicks or Rabach. And maybe we should give Heyer a true test going up against the Williams Wall at guard, just to see if yesterday was a flash in the pan or if he might actually be better suited for guard.

Even so, would you start him over Moss or Armstrong on this team? I would be tempted to.

It's Sean Taylor week. We always lose on Sean Taylor Week.

Seems like the Giants have made standard practice out of starting hot and falling off in the second half.

Its odd how they are becoming known for that. Almost like the anti-Chargers

Tougher conference I would say. Although the AFC West used to be crap, now is somewhat respectable.

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

who cares. the giants have been owning use lately. how are we going to block their front 4?

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

I personally would worry about the Vikings first. A player can do a lot of healing in a couple weeks time.

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

[quote=SirClintonPortis;761974]Even so, would you start him over Moss or Armstrong on this team? I would be tempted to.[/quote]Nah, Manningham is a third receiver on this team and is a little too Devin Thomas-y for my tastes. His gaffes are usually spectacular.

I think he has more football ability than DT ever would, but for the same reason I think giving up on Thomas was justifiable, I think Manningham is closer to the end in the pros than many think. I think the Giants want to replace him, and just haven't found anyone capable enough, especially with Steve Smith out.

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

The Giants offensive unit is really poor right now. Their best weapon might be their right guard. Beyond that? Bradshaw, maybe?

Re: Hakeem Nicks will miss Redskins game (Leg Injury)
 

Giants are a better team than us but this helps us close the gap a bit. I am pleased he won't play against us.

He's been a fumble machine so far. He's good for one per game almost.
