All is quiet on the injury front

It’s almost a regular work week for the Giants, who came in this morning for strength and conditioning work. They will also break into positions for a little film study.
The process will be repeated tomorrow, and practice get under way on Wednesday.
And we don’t have any idea who might still be limited by injury when the Giants head for the bubble. Steve Smith, Brandon Jacobs and Domenik Hixon were on the sidelines Friday watching the corrections. Justin Tuck, Kareem McKenzie and Michael Johnson were limited.
There could be more.
Fred Robbins and Barry Cofield, the first line of defense against Brian Westbrook, have also been dealing with nagging issues.
“We still have a couple of guys who will be potentially limited or maybe even out, depending on what the medical people tell me,” Tom Coughlin said this afternoon during his conference call. “We won’t know that until Wednesday. I’m not going to say because I don’t know exactly who they are.”
There is no locker room access today, so we can’t look into the issue. Antonio Pierce didn’t sound the least bit concerned that a couple of regulars might need more time.
“Come Wednesday, I’m pretty sure everybody on our team will be able to practice,” he said. “I think it’s just something that you gotta make it happen.”
Hint. Hint. Hint.
I’m not sure what the football equivalent of a Code Red is, but there is undoubtedly pressure to get everyone on the field Wednesday because the Giants know Philadelphia is very capable of ending the season this weekend.

I like Antonio’s attitude!!!! We’re a team!! it takes all of our guys, not just one or two. They know it’s “time” and with his command of the team we’ll be right there to dig in deep!!
It’s this hurry up and wait thing that drives me crazy!!
Is it just me?? I just can’t watch these games with anyone around??? I turn off the phones, lock the door throw everyone out of the house, eat early and have this moment to myself!!! It’s emotional it’s exhusting! For those of you that go to friends house and or the Bar God bless!!!
