They are a little better...like they have a running game. But that's pretty much where it ends.

they are better than the bears. they have plax, who's been inconsistent lately, but was right there in the conversation with to and moss earlier in the year, and can still be a threat especially to a depleted secondary. We played against the bears backup and the giants have the "unstoppable" eli manning. (hehehe) they have shockey and a run game and a pretty active front seven, which will go a long way in countering our best play makers. If we can get our receivers involved in the game we definitely have a shot, but Im just not sure with a suffering running game and todd collins we have much of a chance. I hope we do, but the deck is definitely stacked against us.

Not really. I mean, Collins long-term production in this offense has yet to be evaluated, but we definately can exploit a pass defense weakness for the Giants if we can get those ends blocked. We are only going to hurt ourselves if we try to run the ball this week. Our defense is capable of shutting down the Giants and forcing turnovers. The question is, will it actually happen?

i'll give you that...

Its gonna be up to the wideouts to get the offense going like I said. most of the backs and even cooley will probably either be used in pass protection or covered well...


if collins has a good day with the wideouts even if they only send 2 or 3 guys on routes, our offense will have a good day.

I am also a little concerned about them running against us, but we'll see. London Fletcher is a beast and has been shutting the run down all year long, I hope he can keep it up...


GO SKINS!!!!!
