I don't think we win this game.

I do put some stock in SOME aspects of the preseason. In the last two games we didn't run the ball real well, but I'm not worried about that. CP will take it to them. But we have no ability to throw the ball right now. I think we'll pass protect better than we did against the Panthers, but I don't think it matters. With Thomas and Kelly being worthless, there's nothing to stop the Giants from rolling coverage to Santana Moss. And of course without Thomas and Kelly, the Giants can key on Cooley and Fred Davis in the red zone.

Campbell clearly doesn't have the timing down yet, either.

Our defense will keep us competitive. And I expect Zorn to get conservative and run the living sh** out of Portis, because not much will work through the air.

In the end we keep it pretty close as our defense hangs in there. Portis gets 30+ carries, and goes over 100 yards, but Campbell is ineffective and throws an ill-timed interception. Then Eli beats us with one or two big plays downfield.

Giants 20
Redskins 16
