Of course it is the best you have seen Eli.. he hasn't played anyone.

Reality is, as strange as it sounds, the Giants have not seen a defense this season like the Saints defense, nor seen an offense like the Saints offense.

Playing against the cream-puff defenses the Giants have played, and having played one more game, they have only 137 more yards than the Saints in total run offense.

... I am not saying the Giants are bad or that they are going to be a cakewalk. I just don't see the Giants as anything else other than another team the Saints should beat at home.

It's a good matchup. Both teams are strong in pretty much every facet of the game. Those games usually come down to special teams.

Don't drop the ball, Reggie.
