Burgundy Army: Gameplanning for the NY Giants
It’s tough to determine which Giants team the Redskins will face this weekend. Will it be the team that fell to deficits of 35-0 and 42-3 against Seattle? Or will it be the team that came back from a 17-point fourth quarter deficit to defeat the Philadelphia Eagles in overtime during Week 2? The Redskins must be prepared to face the latter. With that in mind, the following keys will be of the utmost importance to the Redskins’ gameplan.

Re: Burgundy Army: Gameplanning for the NY Giants
I believe our O-line determines the outcome. If they can get Portis running downhill as they did against the Jags, Brunell won't be faced with many 3rd and longs, which opens up the downfield attack as NY commits a safety to help against the run. And BTW, is there a better lead blocker in the NFL than Mike Sellers? He was blowing guys up last Sunday.

Re: Burgundy Army: Gameplanning for the NY Giants
i think the 36-0 game seems like decades ago. we are a totally different team from that game( in a good way) and the giants are totally different team, also( in a bad way) good read. the skins have, for the most part, kept barber in check. and the giants corners are horrible. if our offensive line gives brunell time, we should win easily

Re: Burgundy Army: Gameplanning for the NY Giants
Nice Work Schneed. I really believe this game will come down to coaching, particularly making adjustments on the fly.
And, I say this with complete impartiality , Coughlin and his staff are no match for Gibbs and his gangstas

Well I think Gibbs has a real challenge on his hands when he faces the likes of Bill Parcells, a Tom Coughlin I'm not so worried about wits wise

If wits were tits the Giants would have to be bottle fed.

Re: Burgundy Army: Gameplanning for the NY Giants
Very good insight.
2 questions: 1) Will our WR/RB-screens help to combat the speed of their DEs or is good blocking really the only way to handle it? 2) Have you heard anything about Shockey's health? I feel like he's been noticably limping everytime I see him but I haven't heard anything about why.

I have Shockey on one of my fantasy teams, and Yahoo's little yellow note next to his name said that he practiced pretty well yesterday and is looking pretty healed. He had a sore ankle, but seems closer to 100% now. We've given up a lot of plays to TEs and RBs in the passing game so far, he'll be a headache for us. We'll need to commit LBs to covering him, so the front four is going to have to get the pressure.

Re: Burgundy Army: Gameplanning for the NY Giants
I agree that the O-line is the key to this game. I think the counter gap could work to either side. I also like the fact that Saunders has been running out of three and four wide sets. There is no reason that that wouldn't work against N.Y. as well. . Pass wise, I like flair control with Cooley, Fauria, and Sellars to slow down the ends. I might also try the Go Route with LLoyd. Whoever guards him is bound to be the dregs, right? And if he can get COMPLETELY behind the defense, he doesn't have to worry about getting hit.
On an off the wall note, I look for Ade Jimoh to make a big play in this game, somewhere, somehow. You can only keep him down so long. Lastly, let's hope that the weather is nice. 20 mile winds could really help them because it might limit our passing game. I would guess that Eli would be less affected by wind than Mark B. Also, Hall into a strong Meadowlands wind (the one that blows right to left across your radio dial) would not be dependable beyond 35 or 40 yards.
