Looking forward to it.
Any Giants fan who has actually looked at their roster cannot be comfortable with their WR situation.

Their ability to run the ball will take them far but giving Eli $100 doesn't solve the fact that they are not a championship threat without Burress. They easily have the worst WR corps in the division and possibly the worst TE situation as well.

More importantly, the best D, and the best OLine. If you do not think they are a championship threat, then you do not know football.

I doubt your oline stays healthy this year, and Spags leaving is going to hurt you. 53Fan said you might win the first game, I say no way. Your team is absolutely going to be overlooking the Skins, I don't even blame them you guys have had our number, but this is a different team, and suddenly Eli is going to look very average. I said 28-10 Skins earlier, with a pick 6 atleast.

I understand looking at last year, but please where your collapse was predicated on losing Plax, ours was on injuries. You did not fix your loss, we strengthened our line (don't believe the media line). But I realize it's all speculation right now. But I can't wait for that first game!

What makes you think they have the best D in the division? Because you said so? They could have the worst. Washington's was better and they upgraded. Dallas has a ton of talent and the Eagles always have a good D.

I saw them without Burress last year and they were nothing special. Philadelphia went into your house and bitch slapped you. My 5 year old could break that down for you.

Their only weakness is at Will LB. The skins did not have a better D. The Giants pass rush is devastating and is getting Umenyiora back. The pass rush sets up everything defensively.

Like I asked you before, why, because you said so? Washington's defense was better last year and they made two huge upgrades (Orakpo and Haynesworth). I know what sets up a defense and so does Cerrato that is why we picked up the single most devastating lineman in football and picked the consensus top pass rusher in college football. We also drafted another big time pass rusher in the supplemental draft. Maybe you are used to talking to Giant fans but "my team is better because I said so" doesn't fly in here.

Best D and best O-line? In the division, maybe, in the league no way.

Eli is better than JC, but that still doesn't mean I'd want him on the Skins. He's a wanker and a baby. He doesn't even look like a football player. He just looks like a kid on Halloween.

Also, the only thing you can credit Eli with regarding the Superbowl win is about two plays where he managed to avoid what looked like an inevitable sack. That's all.
