New York Football Giants!
 
(even though they play in New Jersey ... ;) )

Since other teams had their own threads...

So Blue Faithful, what do you think of the breakout game of Steve Smith and Mario Manningham? I must admit to some tempered excitement because it's nice to see receivers to whom Eli looks very comfortable throwing.

It softens the blow of losing Plaxico Burress to utter stupidity and Amani Toomer's reliable hands.

Also does Eli look any cooler and more collected than in the last few minutes of a game with a chance to win on the line?

Are the Giants 3-0 after Tampa? I say YES!

Not a big football guy anymore but Giants were always my team back in the day so I stick with them and anyone playing the Pats. :D

SB XLII must have been a fun night for you then huh? It definitely was a raucous one at my house. :) The Perfect Ending.

Glad someone started this thread. Go Big Blue!

Looks like Manning complete to Manningham is going to be said often.

I'm with you on 3-0 after the Tampa game.

Manningham's speed is a beautiful thing. He definitely broke a few ankles with those impressive jukes. I'll be following his development.

I still don't totally trust their RBs or DBs - Manning can't live by bread-and-butter dumpoffs alone.

Oh sir, the Giants of New York took on the Packers of Green Bay. And in the end, the Giants triumphed by kicking an oblong ball made of pigskin through a big "H". It was a most ripping victory!

Giants just dominated today. Bucs looked bad from start to finish.

It really wasn't ever in doubt though I am a bit worried about Tynes. Two weeks now with misses inside 30yds ...

No doubt, though I expected the Bucs to play a little better than they did. As for Tynes, I def agree with you, two easy kicks botched in back to back games. This one was only a 21 yard kick!

Tom Coughlin is one of the best coaches in the league at using adversity as a motivating factor. The team got the news Thursday that starting safety Kenny Phillips would be placed on injured reserve. It's an obvious setback, but the defense didn't miss a beat Sunday.

The Giants will travel to Kansas City to face a winless Chiefs team next Sunday. It might sound like the perfect time for a letdown (see: Cleveland in 2008), but I don't think it will happen. I think the Giants are the best team in the league right now, although you could certainly make an argument for the Baltimore Ravens. Last week, the Giants' front seven was embarrassed by what the Cowboys accomplished in the running game.

Good win over a team the Giants were supposed to beat so it was nice to see that they pounded them early and often.

Steve Smith is officially "The Man" now. What a show!

And welcome to the end zone, Hakim Nicks! Very nice RAC!

Scary moment for Eli but it looks like the injury won't be all that bad but another excellent performance from he QB.

In the meantime, what the hell is up with Tynes?

ESPN is speculating now that Eli's injury is most likely an Achilles injury ...

Begin fretting ... ... ... NOW!

A day after hurting the heel in a non-contact injury in a win over the Kansas City Chiefs, Manning walked into the locker room with neither a boot, a crutch nor much evidence of heavy tape on his right foot. The only obvious sign of an injury was a slight limp.

Manning was to have an MRI on his right leg late Monday afternoon.

"I don't think it's nothing to be worried about. It will be getting rid of the soreness," Manning said.

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Eli Manning is going to have to play in pain if he wants to continue as the New York Giants quarterback.

Manning was diagnosed with inflamed tissue in his right foot late Monday following an MRI at the Hospital for Special Surgery in Manhattan. It's a problem that usually develops over time and lingers.

ESPN senior NFL analyst Chris Mortensen first reported the diagnosis.

Team physician Russell Warren told Manning he could play this weekend against the Oakland Raiders if he could tolerate the pain.

"It's not as serious an injury as [the doctor] has seen before, where it's the whole foot that's hurting," Manning said in an interview on ESPN Radio in New York. "It's just kind of a portion of it."

The Giants (4-0) have listed Manning as day to day with the plantar fasciitis, which has caused soreness and swelling in the heel and arch area on the bottom of his foot.

That I did. I knew the Saints would be the beginning of the tough part of the schedule. The Giants could very easily drop to 5-5 if they don't get it together. They get credit for beating the teams they had to beat but now it's time to play with the varsity.

Shameful the way they have played the last three games.
Eli's has the confidence of a rookie on his first day, playing against an undefeated and best team in the league.
He is choking.
