This doesn't have much to do with Ferguson specifically, but as far as injuries; it seems like people are dropping like flies everywhere. I know a lot of people get injured in week one, since it's the first real contact for a lot of them, but look at the friggin Giants injuries. Jansen's gone for the season, and it seems like just about every team has lost at least one key starter at this point.

It's big news for them. Their one true nose tackle which makes a big difference in their system. I really think their defense is going to be a shell this year.

Both of those defenses looked pathetic yesterday. I'd be shocked if either of these teams racked up more than 6 wins.

I kept being told "Dallas looks good rob... what are you going to do about that!!?!"

Yeah... right. Dallas looked good against a horrible defense. It's week one, and that was some horrible D on both sides of the ball. There were injuries everywhere too.

The only thing that impressed me from that game was Eli Manning

A lot of people see Manning as a bust because they expected him to be Peyton. Just because hes not ever going to be that good doesn't mean hes not capable of his share of these types of performances for the rest of his career.

The Giants passing game is going to be pretty solid this year. Its safe to say their offense will be better than last year.

But my god, with that defense there, there isn't anything for us to worry about. Romo isn't even that good. His first option was open every time he dropped back yesterday.

I thought I was alone in this one. Was it just me too or were his receivers having to readjust for almost every pass he threw?

I saw him hit a couple of receivers in stride, but I think I could have completed at least 50% against the Giants DB last night.. I've said since the offseason, I'll be suprised to see the Giants with more than 5 wins.

I want to see the Cowboys against Miami next week before I make my final judgment.

"Jacobs had six carries for 26 yards in his first start, replacing the retired Tiki Barber. Then he sprained a knee in the second quarter and was ruled out, too. Coach Tom Coughlin said after the game that Jacobs' injury was an MCL, but the extent of the injury wasn't known."

From ESPN - Giant losses: Manning, Jacobs, Umenyiora all hurt - NFL

That was a brutal game.

Out 3-4 weeks from what I understand for Jacobs

all those injuries in that game. was it that hard hitting? or were they just like fluke type of injuries?

It was a pretty viscous game.

There's no denying that there was some serious hitting going on. It was like every other play someone went down. Some probably were fluke, and some (such as Manning's) were pretty obviously from getting rocked.

That sounds disgusting. I hope they cleaned up afterward.
