Well, Brees is phenomenal. There isn't a quarterback in the game that's better right now. Not Manning. Not Brady.

I know there are some Eli haters out there, but he's really good QB.

He's great when he has the best team of the two, but when he gets pressured he does a lot of boneheaded things that neither Campbell or McNabb do.

I'd throw Romo in there too, but "pressure" on Tony Romo is a completely relative term. You can get pressure on Tony Romo, and he'll still make a completely uncontested throw.

I guess that's why they let him throw in the red zone BTW, it only took them 5 plays and a couple of minutes to get there.

Yup, but just like us...only a FG. Funny stat, against us they went to the RZ 3 times and got 2 FG. Damn the poor tackling of our defense, but good for them to be able to keep a power running team like the G-Men to just FGs in 3 trips to the RZ.

If JC had an OL like that and a receiver like Smith that always catches the key plays, then JC would also look good. We are getting there slowly, our problem is the RED ZONE.

Guys, Witten or Cooley?

Looks like that was their problem in that drive as well.

Did JC even get sacked once today? I thought the O line gave him plenty of time to throw, although I watched most of the game in fast forward mode, since I was out during the first quarter.

Yeah, the line played well today...once again, our problems today were mainly dropped passes, bad play calling, and well some of our stars not showing up...well mainly Moss.

Shit, looks like the Cowboys are about to score. Ugh.

Yep. But at least they didn't wait until it was 3rd and goal to attempt a pass in in the end zone.

hmmm, let's try to remember what that looked like

Yes but they still were held to a field goal. I'm sure a Giants fan is pissed at that.

This looks bad for us. I mean Dallas is having their way with the Giants D-line.

I'm sure more than one Giants fan is pissed, and I'm sure all of them will be really pissed if it happens 3 or 4 more times. Especially if it takes them 10-15 plays to get to the red zone in the first place.
