So here is a summary... the average pats fan is a middle aged soccer mom who drinks light beer. She proudly lives in an overpriced house while drowning in debt. She parties on the back of her soccer mom SUV and compensates for her porn-addict husband by googling over Tom Brady. Definitely worth bragging about! Come on G-MEN, Kill them PATS! checked that article out. So here is a summary… the average pats fan is a middle aged soccer mom who drinks light beer.

Other keys - As the Ravens, the Eagles, and the Giants proved, the weakness of the Pats pass defense is in the middle (Of course Belichick knows this now and will try to compensate for it). Eli has to use play action, the pump fake, and passes to the back shoulder to keep the Pats from smothering his receivers. If they can't get to Brady, the DL must put their hands up and clog the middle to keep Brady from having clear passing lanes. As with Favre, the rushers must make contact with Brady as frequently as possible without drawing a penalty. If Osi can't be a factor in the pass rush (the last Pats game his blocker had often pushed him 10 yards past the pocket by the time Brady released the ball), he should be told to drop back into coverage. Conversely, the OL must give Eli decent passing lanes as they did in the last Pats game. Special teams must give the offense and defense good field position The Giants must remain aggressive throughout the game. They have a tendency to play too conservatively late in the game. This allows the other team to regroup and make a run. In the last Pats game, it cost the Giants the game. If need be they should seriously consider going for it on fourth down in Pats territory because in the fourth quarter, they will probably have to score every time they have the ball to win. Finally, since no one expects Eli to run, one effective run for a first down by Eli should really create indecision in the Pats defense.

I have faith in this team that they aren't satisfied with just getting to the game...They want a Super Bowl Title!!! The focus needs to be there and it will.........the Giants are 1 game away from being remembered as one of the most "special" teams in sports history yeah, it's time to reverse the curse once again...need to put Boston and all of New England back where they belong!!

This next season could be extremely humorous. So far dallas is going to have three head coaches. Rumors are also going around that the next jersey that says "Jones" on it will belong to Jerry. Apparently he is replacing Romo. As for jerry's commercials, one of my HS buddies is the delivery guy in the papa johns commercial. Sweet eh?! Also, let's face it, we would all succumb to doing stupid TV adds for the money. Just ask Eli or Strahan. Apparently,when it comes to commercials, noone is above green. You’re my boy del!

But physically, no, he wouldn't be able to play. A broken fibula typically takes about three months to heal, so unless he's a miracle healer, he'd still be several weeks away from actually starting work. I haven't seen him since he's been on IR, so I assume he hasn't been able to do anything in terms of running or some such thing. Giants fan:
