1. watch it
I'm on suicide watch after that game. The Giants better bounce back this week. I think they will.

2. Next Weeks Game Against Dallas Could be the Game of the Year!
Edited on Mon Nov-28-05 02:01 PM by Beetwasher
Go Cowboys! :evilgrin:

Seeing Dallas lose by a FG on TG, I know a little bit how you feel, although, the Giants loss was much, much worse. I can't believe how they stopped Alexander, that was pretty impressive.

4. we are going to beat you
The Giants are the more talented team and are playing at home.

7. maybe
if the Giants get there stuff together, it doesn't have to be. Eli needs to pretend its the 4th quarter in the first. Then we'll win going away.

8. You Are Way Too Overconfident
I hope the Giants underestimate Dallas as much as you do. Big mistake. I will relish this conversation on Monday after the Giants lose.

9. I think Dallas is a good team
I just think the Giants have barely tapped their potential and that this is the week that happens.

11. More talented team?
The Cowboys and Giants have identical records, we both lost to Seattle by a field goal after missing field goals, and we beat you, once, on a field goal, in overtime, after playing even in regulation.

If there were ever two more identically matched teams, I haven't seen them. You did beat Denver, who beat us, but we beat San Diego, who beat you.

Can't wait til Sunday. Should be a great game. Wonder what the over/under on combined missed field goals will be? The Cowboys might be undefeated with a good kicker. I think we lost one game by more points than we missed in field goals.

You guys have a brighter future at QB, that's for sure.

12. I think we are more talented
but our youth on offense has held us back. Eli is way ahead of where most thought he'd be, but he has still struggled at times. But its really close to completely clicking.

I also think Dallas' injuries on the OL will hurt them in this game. They can't double both Strahan and Osi. The first game, Adams was healthy, Eli was horrible until the end, and the Giants played their typical post bye week game.

3. I had to physically restrain my roommate from destroying the TV...
...after Coughlin called that TO at the 2 minute warning.

Just ripped my heart out.

10. I cannot remember seeing a 45 yard kick that short
I cannot remember an NFL kicker missing a 45 yard FG short in good conditions. Sure in wind, cold weather, snow etc but not in those conditions. Wonder if the Seahawks were able to slip in a dead football for those kicks?

14. I think there was wind....
...but the butthead announcers didn't say anything about it other than in passing. They talked about making a field goal from a certain endzone but that was about it. But watching the game I saw passes and kicks from both teams do weird things.

13. OR three missed touchdowns
If the NYG had scored even one of those three touchdowns, folks wouldn't have to be piling on Feely. At least that's the way I see it. Some of those missed FGs weren't sure things by a long shot.
