Easy money?

October
31

Based on the line, it seems the wide majority of you believe the Giants won’t have any trouble winning this week.

History must count for something.

I know the Cowboys are all banged up, but 12 of the last 20 meetings between these teams have been decided by a touchdown or less.

Barry Cofield isn’t buying into the hype.

“I’m not reading into that,” he said. “They’ve got a ton of people left. They’ve got a ton of pride. They’re a team that has Super Bowl aspirations and definitely haven’t written off the season.”

Danny Clark stopped just short of calling Dallas the best team money can buy.

“You can’t overlook them,” he said. “They got the best roster in the NFL, in my opinion, man for man. They just got Roy Williams, so this is a team that is loaded on both sides of the ball. At the end of the day, we’re not worried about who’s not there. The team they line up is going to come out and play.”

    Even with the injuries the Cowboys have, this game will not be easy.

    Beating the Cowboys is never a given and I love Cofield’s attitude. I’m hoping our D-Backs step up and make some big hits like last week.

    We’re still the Giants. We’ll get down 14-0 in the first q before waking up and playing ball.

    What a difference a year makes. Last year the Giants had had their butts kicked by Dallas once and were about to have it happen again. This year people are worried about them being overconfident.
    Just show them last year’s films. That will motivate them.

    I’m back! Anyone missing Ernie as much as me? In fact, if it weren’t for a personal request from him for me to come in here and stir things up, I would still be nursing my strained cornea. That’s right, injuries to all sorts of body parts seem to be an epidemic down here. So, you big blue fans better pray it ain’t contagious! Anyways, I am expecting a really close game. From what I can tell, Giants D is clutch and Dallas’ D is awake and ready to shut down Eli. Both offenses seem to be struggling a bit. So, I am saying we will be lucky to se either team go over 21. I think in the end it is going to be an incredibly boring game with the giants winning 17 – 10. I hate to go against my boys, but what can I say. I am a fan…realistic. However, last year we all saw that loosing in the 16 is that much more motivating when we role through NYC in the offseason! Adios
