Thanks for the props =) I'm not too concerned with injuries but more that the team is burnt out from all the hard hitting. The worst is probably when you play all these physical games and loose. I heard winning cures all though.
Eli: Until last year the Eli trade looked horrible. SD got a QB, Shawn 'lights out' Merriman, and Nate Kaeding for Eli. Even with Rivers not putting up the big numbers he did this year, committing such a high pick on a QB and failing is a death sentence. Trading away a pro-bowl LB and a serviceable QB (could have kept River or taken Big Ben) on top of that is..well let's not think about it. Of course winning the SB made it all worthwhile. The trade has now swung violently in favor for NY as they got their SB, looks like they are making another SB run, and Merriman has a very serious knee injury. The Giants have drafted well. Remember all those pundits that questioned why the Giants were drafting so many pass rushers? This year they should draft OL though. -----Original Message----- From: G Money [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 10, 2008 12:25 PM To: cf-community Subject: Re: Giants winning but sloppy First of all, let me say how nice it is to have Won back on the list....loves me some educated sports talk :) While injuries are always a concern for every competing team, from what I've seen from the Giants, they are better prepared to handle it should one of their front line guys go down. When Derrick Ward comes in for Brandon Jacobs, I don't see much of a drop off at all. When Plax was out with his issues, they played their best game of the year. When gap-tooth retired, their other D ends stepped up and their pass rush may be even BETTER this year. I still think your question mark is at QB, in spite of his performance in the playoffs last year. Where's the Eli we all loved to hate? I'm still adjusting to a world where BOTH Manning's have a Lombardi Trophy *bleck* ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:279658 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
