Giants are 5-0 but......

opponents are combined 6-19

Washington, Dallas, Tampa Bay, Kansas City and Oakland


I'm FAR from impressed......True the G-Men are the class of the NFC but let's get real. For the exception of Dallas (barely) the rest of these teams are pure garbage. They have beat up on the JV of the NFL for the first 5 weeks and have not had a true test yet. It will be interesting to see how they react. Im sure Payton and G. Williams have something nice for them this weekend

And the total record of the teams we played is 8-11. The difference of one team because of our bye week. The best way to measure this would be to not include the Oakland game which puts them at 5-15. They deffinitly havn,t had a challenge yet. 72% vs. 33% win to loss ratio. The teams we played were way better excluding the Lions and the Bills. Philly's got a chance to contend with NY in there conference and The Jets have had two bad games in a row but the Fins were bound to win some day. The way Washington, Dallas, Tampa Bay, Kansas City and Oakland are playing they have absolutely no shot at the postseason, whereas Phili and the Jets do. I hope the dome is so loud it splits there ears. Geaux Saints!!!!

Re: Giants are 5-0 but......

remember that 5 of the losses the giants opponents have are because the giants beat them so even tho the teams look bad on paper, the record is still pretty respectable

you have to beat the bad teams and make it close with the good teams.....if you dont then you earn no respect and never get a push into the playoffs

Re: Giants are 5-0 but......

True enough ... another point to consider... the winning victory margin. .... the media still have a love fest for anything New York. It'll be a fun game against the Gmen.

Yes...but Sean and Mickey were wise enough to go out and get some "Eli Kryptonite" in the form of Darren Sharper. As Artie Johnson use to say, it should be "vellly intelesting".

Re: Giants are 5-0 but......

For some reason I am more afraid of Brandon Jacobs than Eli Manning. With Manning still a bit hurt, the Saints will probably get a heavy dose of Jacobs. Then throw Bradshaw into the mix, going to be a tough pill to swallow...
