Well, we are running away with the division but it wasn't pretty:
1) The Giants never EVER do anything the easy way. This team's inability to step on the necks' of their opponents is really troublesome. This game should not have been a contest, much less having to rely on the finger tips of Dez Bryant brushing the white line in the back of the end zone.
2) We are in sole possession of this division. If it were any other 6-2 team, I'd have said the division is locked up but you KNOW the Giants will find a way to allow the Eagles/Cowboys/Redskins back into the race somehow. But they would really have to work hard to lose the firm grasp that we now enjoy.
3) I'll say it every week if I must ... I *HATE* the bend-don't-break-read-and-react-give-up-a-ton-of-yards defense that Fewell runs. But once again, it works (if barely). Anyone actually feel confident in our defense?
4) Welcome back Chris Canty (for real this time)! M'man was in beast mode today.
5) I'd be highly surprised if Bradshaw is on the Giants next year.
6) I'm not sure why we weren't killing Dallas with slants yesterday.
7) If we can win when we're this off, imagine how good this team will be when we catch fire.
8) DLine actually looked like a shade of it's former self.
9) How can Boley be unable to cover Witten? And why did it take 15 receptions before PF figured that out?
10) If the Cowboys had a halfway decent head coach, that team would be scary (Jason Garret is in WAYYYY over his head imo).
11) Our third and short philosophy seems to be either to throw it either 20 yards too long or 2 yards too short.
12) I once (jokingly) compared Stevie Brown to Troy Polamalu ... maybe I should have compared him to Ed Reed. Kid is really all over the field.
13) JPP continues his bestial ways ... maybe we could get him to play TE too?
14) Tuck is actually starting to look like ... Tuck. I'm going to start calling him Second Half Harry.
15) You Blackburn haters got your wish ... looks like he's going to be out some. I sincerely hope this doesn't become a case of missing something once it's gone (I do NOT think our defense just got better despite popular opinion).
16) CWeb is having about the worst year I've seen him have .... ever (including 2009).
17) I finally figured out what I'm waiting to see out of Prince .... consistency (thank you Tom Brenaman).
18) What happened to Joe Buck?
19) Great win ... now for the hard part of the schedule (oy vey) and the inevitable second half collapse, the cries of TC losing the team, the fire KG/PF threads (in earnest) and the general hooliganism that is the second half of any Giants season :D
20) Everyone stay safe ... I'm currently battening down my own hatches as we speak!
