First Game of Week VI : Eagles at Giants Thread

[Hoenheim]

This should be a pretty good game IMO. Giants aren't out of the division race because all the other teams are doing so badly (Cowboys and Eagles already have 3 losses and the Redskins could easily have 3 if they lose to use on Sunday).  The media heads were advertising their game against us last Sunday as their make or break game. But looking at the division standings right now, if the Giants beat the Eagles tonight they would both be 2-4 and the Giants would hold the tie breaker with this win so they would be 3rd in the division.

So basically whoever loses this game will be the last place team in the division. 

I think both teams will play desperate, should be a good one.

Look for Giants to upset the Iggles

I honestly think Giants win handily tonight.

[Hoenheim]

By the way the Redskins barely have a lead on the division at 2-2 (how screwy is that?) . They probably want the Giants to win to get the Eagles far down the pole as possible

If Redskins lose on Sunday and Cowboys win, along with Giants win tonight, that will mean the Cowboys will be in 1st place after week 6 at 3-3 . What a clusterfug of a division.

At least the Redskins should be the least desperate team out of them all and we play them on Sunday. But they will definitely be looking to bounce back from that embarrassment vs the Saints. The good thing is Cam traditionally toasts the Redskins for whatever reason.

Feels weird saying but go Giants. Can't help but feel for them after losing on a historic field goal and F the birds! Bury them as deep as possible.

I was excited for a football night.

 

then I saw who was playing

I just made a change to my Week 6 predictions. The Giants are at home, the Eagles are coming off of a short week, the Giants have kept games close, Lane Johnson may not play, and a win by the Giants allows them to think that the playoffs are possible given the state of the NFC East all allowed me to rationalize and predict a Giants victory.

...yea....OBJ will prolly go off one way or another....but Giants ripe for a win...not to mention...somebody needs to tell Wentz to set your little azz down...

[Hoenheim]

Theres no way that man fumbled the first play of the game

[Hoenheim]

The Giants need a QB

Reports of the Giants rebound MAY have been premature.

I remember Scott Simonson and when there was a glimmer of hope for him as a backup TE
