The Giants ........
 

Looked like crap,at least they lost straight out so I could get some sleep.:)

Re: The Giants ........
 

Weird week - all three of the NFC East leaders lost together. So long as the Eagles don't get hot, we should all still be fine for the playoffs.

Don't F..... with the Ram's! They'll get your ass too!

i feel sorry for you,you seem like a good person.have you heard anything about the giants trading sinorce moss straight up to the chiefs for T.G.?SI is reporting that's why he did'nt play last night.

Re: The Giants ........
 

i stayed up and wathced the whole game. it was a good game until Eli threw that pick 6. Glad they lost. Kinda looks like Eli is back to his old self(throwing picks, fading back while throwing).

[quote=Hog1;489650]Don't F..... with the Ram's! They'll get your ass too![/quote]The Giants already smoked the Rams in St Louis by about 30 points. I'm still not convinced that the Rams will amount to anything. We averaged over 6 yards per rush against them, outgained them 360-200, and got 22 first downs to their 8. Their beating us was a total fluke. Cleveland scares me a hell of a lot more than the Rams, because they have playmakers (Lewis, Winslow and Edwards) [B]and[/B] a great O-line. The Browns were considered by many a team likely to compete for a playoff spot. Zorn better have our guys ready to jump on them from the start.

Re: The Giants ........
 

I think Winslow is just getting out of the hospital not long ago, so not sure on him playing this week either.. we will have to wait and see if he gets sick again or injures himself in practice if he even practices.

I would put Carlos on Edwards man up after the way Rogers played Holt on Sunday.

I was joking. We should have kicked there ass. At least the team is embarassed that we did not. It may be fortuitious when we look back at events, as we will be aware of the Brown's, and hopefully [B]spank[/B] them

Re: The Giants ........
 

Last night's game shows we need to come out strong and put the Browns away quick. If we don't, we'll be in for another struggle. How about no turnovers this week and the TDs by Portis, Moss and Shaun Alexander.

How could you not be aware of the Browns? They just whooped the defending SB Champs? Skins better come ready to play this week or trouble is a brewing!

Re: The Giants ........
 

Last night was the best thing that could've happened. I mean ofcourse the giants losing is always great. But now we know we better be ready for cleveland. I think we have the perfect formula to beat them, Cause Springs being physical can really slow down Edwards winslow probly won't play and we can concetrate on the run. Honestly if our dbs our cincinatis dbs could catch the giants would be 2-3 instead of 4-1. Fuck eli.

Re: The Giants ........
 

What happened to Winslow that he was in the hospital? They said last night on MNF that it was not disclosed at his request. I'm thinking hep C.

Re: The Giants ........
 

[quote=Giantone;489646]Looked like crap,at least they lost straight out so I could get some sleep.:)[/quote]

Yeah....allowed me to sleep well knowing that Giants came back to us a game! That loss last night was actually quite big for the Skins. Having a 2 game lead in the NFC East was beginning to worry me. BUT NOW...After the Giants have a tough game against the 49ers this weekend.....they have to play the Steelers, Cowgirls, and then Philly! I definitely see them potentially losing 2-4 possibly 3-4 of those games. If the Skins pull it together through the next 3 games, we could be up by a game or two!

Re: The Giants ........
 

The browns D played stronger than usual last night. they were up for the game. Reminded me of the falcons saints game a couple of years back that kinda kicked off the saints.

Their O, however is easily as good... Better even, than they played last night. Our secondary will match up well against them, but they're not afraid to pound jamal lewis down your throat. It will be a good game no doubt.

I was not really paying attention to the radio this morning on the way to work but I'm pretty sure I heard that Winslow is suffering from elephantitis (sp?)of the testicles. If true, I can certainly understand why he would want it kept private, and I bet it hurts more than many of us can imagine.

Re: The Giants ........
 

Giantone - Sorry bout your loss, ok, not real sorry, cuz it nearly negates the skins loss, but I know its gotta hurt.

A buddy of mine in the Navy had that. He always told me it was the most miserable two weeks of his life.

Re: The Giants ........
 

Pig nuts will be out. it don't matter who plays, cleveland will loose.

Re: The Giants ........
 

On tv they were talking about how the Browns D is small and gets pushed around alot. I can see our big linemen opening holes for Portis. We will need to basically do what they did and that is play keep away. If our offense is on the field they can't score. wear them down with the run so in the 4th quarter they are tired and can't tackle well. The medium ball was there for the Giants but they didn't utilize it or dropped the balls thrown there. Hopefully we can get some interceptions. Lewis looked small compared to the Giants D. He was getting some runs but only after they had to back up to stop the Browns passing game. He was stuffed early on.

Re: The Giants ........
 

I missed most of the game because I was playing Madden and I thought it was going to be a Giants rout anyway. I turned it on just in time to see Manning throw the pick 6. I couldn't believe it, the NFC East took it on the chin this weekend.

He most likely has, according to reporting I have heard, a hydrocele--which is a collection of fluid around a testicle. This can be caused by several things, some serious, some not. Of these causes, elephantiasis is low on the list. Elephantiasis is a parasitic infection that one contracts from mosquitoes primarily in Africa and Southeast Asia.

Coming off that big upset, they are going to be hot. I hope our Skinz got a wake-up call last week and takes it to them. I hope the team that handed the Cowgals and the Iggles their arses shows up this Sunday, thirsty, mad and ready to represent our house.

Re: The Giants ........
 

Something good about the Giants loss besides the Skins not falling farther behind in the standings: the Giants look a whole lot more human now. The were undefeated defending champs and looked like a juggernaut. Now they look a lot more beatable. They're still really good but much less intimidating.

I agree that we played lousy, sloppy football, but at least we were able to move the ball consistently before shooting ourselves in the foot via dropped pass, turnover, or penalty. The Rams offense was pretty much inept, and take away the Kendall play, this game isn't even close since we were going in for a score there. Turnovers are part of the deal, so we deserve the loss. My point that it was a fluke was that the team doing most of the physical domination ended up losing the game.

[quote] what the hell is elephantitis? [/quote]

it's a condition that causes swelling in the infected area,and according to tv,his was in or around his bean bag.i bet it hurt too.he won't be playing or watching the playboy channel anytime soon i bet.

Re: The Giants ........
 

I liked the fact that both teams were pounding on each other late into the night. It also show that if you turn the ball over like the Giants and the skins did any team can beat you.

Re: The Giants ........
 

While the Giants loss is good for us, it won't matter until the Skins can prove that the loss to the Rams is a fluke and they are really more like the team that beat Dallas and Philly on the road.

Re: The Giants ........
 

we all know when it comes down to it,all the teams are gonna play each other really close almost every time.i don't care what any of the so called"analysts" on tv say,the nfc east is the best damn divison in the league and i see it staying that way for awhile.

He was awful last night, but he is not the same QB as he was a year ago. He'll be fine for next week against San Fran.

As for the game itself, poor QB play+no pass rush=loss.

2 plays that changed the game were the 70 yarder to Edwards after Giants went up 7-3. Browns had playeed really well, and were still losing. They shut them down on that series, the crowd would have soured and the Giants would have got the motors running and blown them out.

The other play was the 2nd Eli INT. Just cut the lead before half. Get tha ball to start the 3rd quarter, which is the best time for the road team. Have a chance to take the lead, crowd was ready to crumble and Eli brought them right back into it.

The last INT wasn't a game changer, imo. By that time, the game was over. Even if they score, I do not think the D would have held Cleveland to give the O a chance.

Gives you a reality check and reminds a team that you are never as good as you seem to be when you win a lopsided game (seattle). Let them get back to work this week and get ready for San Fran. Schedule gets very tough beginning the 26th in Pittsburgh. I am willing to bet that no one will be walking around at Giants practice tomorrow with any kind of arrogance.

Re: The Giants ........
 

Eli is Eli,he has games like this ....not all the time but he does and as a Giant fan I must live with it.What will tell if the Giants are for real is how they handel this,I will say that the D was as bad as Eli was.
I really don't think there are alot of Redskin fans or Giant fans that really expected either team to go 16-0,both will lose other games ....as will the Cowpukes and the Eaglets,it's early yet.:twocents:

Winslow really has not had much luck since he entered the league. I would almost consider him a bit of a bust IMHO.

Re: The Giants ........
 

Note to the Redskins: Do not overlook the Browns!! They showed they can play and are not afraid to step it up.

hit em' early and hit em' hard so they never get back up...HAIL!!! i'm looking foward to seeing alexander hitting the whole hard

in the all time series between the skins and the browns,the browns are 33 and 9 against the redskins.

Winslow went #6 in the 2004 draft. We chose Sean Taylor at pick 5. Many draft pundits had us picking Winslow. We did well with that one.
