    actually jeff hostetler got us the super bowl win in the '90-'91 season....but whatever, what matters is that the giants are 4-2 and looking at a very favorable schedule. i'm guessing 12-4 right now, could even be 13-3 which i think would give us home field in the playoffs, which is very key. the nfc is wide-open though. unfortunately there is no mystery this season because everyone already knows that the patriots are going to win the super bowl, but i'll still enjoy it if the giants can get there....they just gotta stay healthy and keep up the intensity, if they do that, i like their chances.

    we play the Patriots the last game of the season. But they'll (Patriots) probably play their backups by then. I hope we get to sack Brady and make him miss the playoffs. Or we play them in the Super Bowl and win by 3 points.

    Yea. Giants Defense was awesome again yesterday.
    you couldn't swing if you were hangin' from a palm tree in a hurricane.

    yes it was, and so was the o-line...

    special teams are still a disaster. they need to work on that...

    it could be worse, our qb could be Cleo Lemon.

    Well, today he's gotten more yards and has a better percentage for complete passes than Eli does.

    Haha. Fair enough. I know that he's better than Cleo, but he is really sucking today and is way to inconsistent in general.

    Well, I'm glad the Giants won, but a 13-10 victory over the Dolphins is kind of pathetic.

    And for the record, Cleo Lemon made Eli Manning look like shit today, and that is not good.

    he didn't play great today. But there were alot of dropped passes. And clemons got more yards because the Giants couldn't tackle.

    i hear everyone saying how bad eli and the giants sucked today, but really.....lets put this in perspective. i know it was even for both teams, but the Giants had to travel all the way to london for this game, the weather was absolutely horrible, pouring down rain the whole game, maybe that's why eli's accuracy was a little off, and there were a lot of dropped passes....not only was the weather horrible, but in result the field conditions were terrible as well, it made it tough for the defensive line to get the good push they usually do, and that said giving up only 10 points which is a season low for the fins is an accomplishment for the defense. the offense ran the ball well, but the game was sloppy in general by both teams. i'm just happy the giants pulled out the victory, now they can relax during the bye week and get ready for dallas and the rest of the regular season played in the united states of america. thank god. this is still a solid team, no need to get down on them for not blowing out their opponent, the important thing is that they did what they needed to do to win.

    All fair points, Tiki.

    Lets just hope that this was a result of bad conditions and jetlag, and not a sign of things to come.

    i agree with these points. the bottom line is that they got out of london with a win despite whatever variables came into play.

    but they have to get better at playing in those types of weather conditions, because next time it won't be against miami. one of eli's biggest problems is that he struggles in bad weather. this has been a constant throughout his career so far, and it's something that he's gonna need to get past if he wants to succeed in new york.

    here's a thought: with all the soccer stars in england, why even bother to buy lawrence tynes a plane ticket? they should have just left him at home and dressed someone from the premier league in his place. :)

    the giants will be wearing their red jerseys on sunday and will be handing out red towels at the game when they face the dallas cowgirls..........not that that means anything but just a little sidenote..........hopefully the crowd can bring some noise.

    prediction

    Giants - 34
    Cowgirls - 24
