Jacobs is the most important player for the Redskins. Burress burns us when Shawn Springs isn't playing [see this season opener], but Springs does fine against Burress and Springs should be ready to play on Sunday.
Jacobs is a great back. He hurts the Skins, he hurts just about everyone. Stopping him is a major challenge and I don't know that we're up to it. [We couldn't even shut down Maurice Morris -- not a good sign.]
Washington will have to play its best game of the season to defeat the Giants. Whatever our best game of the season has been so far [Cowboys, Eagles], it won't be enough against the Giants. We'll have to do better.
The Giants lost by 3 touchdowns to the Browns and were taken to overtime by the Bengals, so they're not indestructible. [Or maybe they've got some problem with crappy teams from Ohio.] The Redskins are capable of beating the Giants. But it'll take our best effort and best execution. The teams know each other very well and the coaching staffs have had a good long look at one another. The team with the better players on Sunday will win.
