Around the league week 7

The Giants are a bad team that we should beat handily. Shut down Barkley same way they shut Elliot. Pressure Manning and he will make mistakes. The potential for a +5 sack day exists. And, unlike this past week, where we often needed five to create the pressure, I am pretty sure rushing four will be enough to get past the porous Giants O-Line. With the ability to drop seven in the obvious passing downs, the DB's / LB's should be able to contain OBJ and Sharpe. As always, however, chunk plays will likely be an issue for us.

While I will worry about Atlanta after we take care of business against NY, I suggest that, at home, we should beat them as well. They have no running game to speak of and their D is decimated by injuries. Ryan is a solid QB but just seems to play better at home than on the road. Their WR's create all sorts of match-up problems and I am concerned their RB's will eat up our LB's in coverage. However, I think our D is better than NYG's and, with Ryan playing on the road, their offense simply isn't as high-powered as at home.

SHOULD BEAT. As others have said, this team needs to forget the win and prepare. J. Allen was saying on the post game that the Alabama process was the same win or lose and, as a result, they won -- a lot. Love his mindset and hope it is infecting his teammates.

Cooper to Dallas for a 1st? Glad it was them and not us.

I agree with this but we find a way to make bad teams look good.
We need Norman and Dunbar to step up against OBJ and Julio.

I think the only bad team we've played this season has been Arizona, and we all know how that turned out. Other than that, I think we've played pretty tough teams and still done well.

My concern is that the Giants always seem to have our number, especially when they are in desperation mode.

If we cant score 24 on Atlanta we just suck plain and simple, that Defense is as bad as it gets

Thats's true,but the Alex Smith of last yr seems to be long gone also.It's hard to judge Eli this year based on how bad is line is,give him time and Eli can still be very effective,just look what he did to the Texans when his line gave him decent protection.{25-29 297 yards 2 tds}

Giants have been bad for a while now, they are rebuilding around Barkley and Odell

Code red trap game. Major code red. If we come off this win like we did against Arizona we can most definitely lose this game.

Come out fired up and we should win by more than a possession.

No big plays for the queen please!!!

Wouldn’t hurt to bring this guy in for a workout and see if he has anything. He was a 2nd round pick a few years back.

Why? He has played 1 start or something. Not saying you couldnt, just seems fairly fruitless.

I said workout like teams do on Tuesdays, he might have something, maybe nothing. Doesn’t hurt to kick the tires.

If the skins get trapped by NYG they deserve to lose, gruden needs to show scenes from Zorn's monday night debacle and how they ran it up, then put pictures of Mara on the dartboard. Giants fans are generally better than eagles and cowboys (even g1) but the owner and team are trash from the wrong side of the city.

Actually, while I agree with your assessments about the NYG, I would be showing them clips from the Indy game.

As the Folks here know I am a true blue blood put there is no way the Skins lose to the Giants unless your defense collapse's totally. I think your O matches well with the Giants D but your D line alone should create enough havoc to win the game out right.

Skins 27

Giants 20

.........most of the Giants offense will come in garbage time.

In more ways than one...

I agree with the dline being the key to the win. Don’t know why, but this Dunbar news is bothering me...probably because it’s so unusual. Hopefully he can shake this off.
