Re: Here we go again
As much as I love the Redskins, beating the Giants is a big challenge. The Redskin defense has been exposed in the past two weeks against the run. That is the Giants strength. The Redskin defense will have to stop the run or else it will be a long day. The Redskin offense needs to open up and make more plays downfield. This means the offensive line needs to provide more pass protection so Campbell can even attempt to go downfield. The Skins need a healthy Portis and a solid contribution from Betts. The Skins will have to be firing on all cylinders to beat the Giants.

Re: Here we go again
The way your offensive line is playing, I believe you can beat anyone WITHOUT Jacobs and Burress as long as Eli is efficient. Therein lies the key for the Skins - rattle Eli into making bad throws. If Eli gets comfortable in the pocket, it will be a long day.

Re: Here we go again
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.

Re: Here we go again
We don't make big plays down the field anyway. If you stop Portis, you win the game.

re: Congratulations from a Giants Fan Ready for Next Sunday
Two threads started by Gaints fans talking about the same thing...time to merge threads?

re: Congratulations from a Giants Fan Ready for Next Sunday
The Giants are really impressive. I don't want to hear anyone on this site complain about injuries. The Giants have been CRUSHED by injury. Who thought they'd be doing this with all the not just starters, not stars, out of the lineup. This game could get messy fast if the Redskins don't find an offense.

Re: Here we go again
He's a forgotten man this year, for some reason. About 50 catches, but only 1 TD -- and he caught that one from Antwaan Randle-El. Not sure why Cooley doesn't get better looks in the red zone. I can't help but think the Skins are leaving points on the field by not getting the ball to Cooley in the red zone.

Re: Congratulations from a Giants Fan Ready for Next Sunday
As bad as we looked the first game, we still only lost by 9 points. Obviously the Giants are better, but so are we. I hope we can keep this close.
Key is to get pressure on Eli. Browns did that, and I saw shades of Bad Eli that game.
