Go Panthers!

Carolina looks like it's close to getting something going on offense but they just can't keep it going. I want to see Eli buried in the turf like he was on that sack all day long.

How much do you guys want to bet that if the Giants go into the half with a lead the NFL front office spikes Carolina's drinking water.

I thought Smith wasn't going to do an endzone dance?

[whitskins]

Carolina looks like they're running the ball with ease right now. The Giants depleted LB unit looks like it's finally collapsing since their D-line is much more concerned with rushing the passer than it is stopping the run consistently.

And if Delhomme gets time then there's no way this Giants secondary can hold down Steve Smith. Sometimes I just look at this Giants defense and marvel at what two 12+ sack guys on the ends can do for your defense, because the rest of their unit is totally ordinary.

Well it wasn't technically a "dance"...it reminded me of Homer and Bart in their living room..cool!!

By the way, are the giants really trying to cover Smith with Terrell Buckley?? He's as old as Ray Brown..

But then again Whit, even two 12 sack guys isn't enough. Look what happens when the Skins base their offensive game plan on stopping them. That's what makes the Skins defense so good. There is no weak link. You can plan on beating them through the air, but the Skins can keep the safeties back and stop the passing game. Well that should open up the run game, but the Skins can stop the run with just the front 7.

The difference in this game is Delhomme has playoff experience and Eli does not. Deshaun Foster looks pretty good.

Oh I agree, when I said marvel I really meant marvel at how their two ends can make their defense look competant, instead of utterly woeful. I wouldn't trade places with their defense for a split second though.


Hahaha by the way the Giants just got gashed for two long runs, one on 3rd and 11, and the crowd is booing now, I love it. Can't wait til they turn their venom on Eli.

The Giants fans are pretty quiet and they just started booing their own team.

Eh, we've booed Brunell, we're just as bad.

You know, I want to give the Giants a lot of credit. This is the type of game that I've seen from them all year: they look thouroughly outmatched, but manage to keep the game close. I'm really suprised Carolina is only winning by 7.

[NCskinsfanatic]

This games not very offensive either...well unless you're a Giants fan that is.....LMAO.

This is one of the few times i have ever found myself pulling for the panthers.

[ryflan47]

Giants just got booed again at the half.

[ryflan47]

And the NFL continues to let the Giants have their way. Man these officials suck this year.
