I was kinda hoping that Eli would have a bad day again, because the guy in my fantasy league has him, but the guy benched Eli for Drew Bledsoe (LOL!!) So now I don't care so long as Plastic-OOOO doesn't get any more TDs

You guys should have just seen the play in the Squeelers game.

Hines Ward dropped a pass and on his way down, his foot hit the ball and the Ravens intercepted....its being reviewed but the guy caught the ball cleanly

Big Blue!


If its any consolation to Eagles fans, they played better today than previously.

And that's the game.

The Giants defense gave up two offensive touchdowns (first time in three games), but the offense played more than well enough.

Eli Manning: 218 yards, 3 touchdowns, and most importantly...no turnovers.

Tiki and Plaxico also chipped in with +100 yard games on rushing and receiving, respectively.

The scrimmage battle was bit unclear; Eagles got 5 sacks, Giants got none. However, Gibril Wilson picked off McMahon once.

All in all, a satisfying game to wash away the taste of last week's loss.

Dallas beat Detroit, so we're still tied for first in the NFC East at 7-3. However, Washington is, at the moment, losing to Oakland by 3, with only 16 seconds left in the game.

Good game G-Men. Good comeback from last week Eli, and see you all next week.

(snickers at all the Giants fans who wanted Eli to be benched after last week)

Pats held on but looked decent throughout most of the game.

Hey, we have a running game again, cut down on penalties compared to early in the year. Now if there was only some way to improve the secondary. That's going to kill us.

Maddox is making me NUTS today. UNNNGH

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRGH! I don't like thinking that all of my eggs are in one man's basket (Ben), but they are. I'd rather see Randle-El run the option than watch Tommy Touchdooooiiiiinterception run the offense.

Frustrating day! And what the he(( happened to our offensive line?
