Giants vs. Saints
 

This is a win. I watched them vs. the Cardinals and it was a relatively close game until the Giants broke a kickoff and punt return for TD's in the second half. Never happen against us. Shockey has a pretty bad ankle. Manning threw two picks.
Giants secondary looked rather weak. Look for Horn and Stallworth to go OFF once we pound them with Duece for a while and pull a playaction fake on them.
Containing Barber on first and second is definitely the key. Our DE's are just frightening when they pin their ears back and come for an immobile target like Manning. Eli is good but not there yet.

But watch out if Eli gets groove going because he can be hot. McKenzie will be burned really fast then. That is why Darren Howard and Will Smith to get to Eli really fast to throw him off his groove. We get this win alright.

I hope our ends knocks the snot out of Manning...

got my tickets today, first saints game i've ever been to (i've been a saints fan for as long as I can remember). I decided I'd better do it now, I have no idea how long before i may be able to do it again. I could never afford to travel to LA, but it will be in my home state, so they need my support!

section 110, row 30 :)

Sounds like nice seats, though I don't know that stadium. Make a sign so the camera will focus in on you, and we can spot you in the crowd...

yeah, i'm going to get my bro's g/f to make me up a sign since i have no artistic ability whatsoever, and she is a good artist. i won't be hard to miss, im a big freak with long hair and i'll be wearing my deuce gold jersey. ill probably post what my sign says here, then you guys can look for me.

See if she can come close to a mask of LOE's avatar. Dear God, no way we'd miss that. LOL

OT

we win!!!!!!!!

I think it's going to be a very close high scoring game. Hopefully we'll come out on top. Strahan versus Brown will be very interesting to watch. I have a bad feeling Tiki is going to have a big game on us. I hope I'm wrong.

This is the way I see it. If Brown can stop a pro-bowl DE for 2 weeks in a row, then I say helluva move drafting him. I believe Stra had 2 or 3 sacks last week. If our ends can bust Manning's chops early, look for 2 or 3 picks from the Saints defense. If the Saints can pretty much contain Stephen Davis for 4 quarters (not counting his one big run), then they can sure contain Tiki Barber. Barber also has a history of a disease known as "fumblitis". Hit him hard and around the ball, then he may cough it up. I don't think Arizona's defense is that great, so look for the offense to have a much bigger game than last week against the Panthers. I see the Saints winning this one running away.

Prediction: Saints: 31 Giants: 17

I really don't think it's going to be that close if we aren't tired, which at this point we shouldn't be. The Cardinals's OLine was pretty beat up if I'm not mistaken. Our OLine is firing pretty well right now. Deuce will have more yards than last week.

Plus, I think that we can put in Hall or Hilton and do fine, maybe not as good though, without Conwell. We'll hit more receivers this week. Only thing that worries me is Tiki; there is just no telling.

I will give Sheppard a lot of credit though for being able to game plan post-Katrina and recognize the front defense of Carolina thus hitting Conwell for so many yards. In the past few years I have not been watching a game and been amazed at our tactics. Sheppard knew they would go for Deuce, he threw Deuce at em then he got Brooks to unload on Conwell. That's strategy at it's best

Agreed Papz. I'm a little concerned about Tiki taking the rock to town a few too many times. He's better than Stephen Davis. I think the offense has a good chance as long as the o-line can keep Strahan off of AB. AB tends to take chances when he gets pressured alot. Of course he did well last week....I hope he can continue to make adjustments to keep the D off balance. Maybe take the ball for a 10 or 12 yard scramble every now and then.

I think the AB and the Saints are going to have a good game....but I really hope they can stop Tiki. I think stopping Tiki and Strahan are going to be the keys to winning this game.

I'm hopin' we see a lot of the Week 1 - first half Giants.
