The odds setters are making the Pats 3 point favourites. They must see something that I don't, because I would think that the Giants are favoured here. New Englands pass rush is good, but not as good as SF's and its secondary is far weaker. The Ravens have shown that a good defence can make the...
The Giants will go through – they are riding high and full of confidence. They also have a score to settle with the 49ers from 2003 when they blew a 38-14 lead to lose 39-38
Comfortable 37-20 win by the Giants after most of NSC’s finest predicted a win by the Packers. With 3 touchdowns by the main man Eli Manning and Hakeem Nicks playing a blinder. Great atmosphere in the bars in New York. Talked with some Packers fans who had a good time despite losing. This was a...
Pats hammering the Broncos 42-10 with Brady showing Tebow how a real quarterback operates by throwing a record 5 first half touch down passes. Tebow was overhyped (not his fault) and has now been shown up as the average QB he is.
So do I. The Giants still have 15 of the players who pulled off a stunning upset 4 years ago at Lambeau beating the Packers in overtime for the NFC championship in 2008 and they at a peak at the moment.
Fairly conclusive 24-2 win by the Giants who went into this game with the worst defence of all the play off teams. Looking forward to next Sunday’s game against the Packers. At this stage I think it’s fairly open, the last encounter was pretty close with the Packers shading it 38-35. New Yorkers...
The Giants have a chance in Sunday’s game against the Falcons. The Falcons play their home games in a dome so playing outside at the MetLife stadium should mix things up a bit. Teams that play indoors like the Saints and the Lions have not traditionally done well in outdoor playoff games. But...
Good piece in the local paper today saying the Dallas Cowboys should no longer be called ‘America’s Team’ as they haven’t been to the Super Bowl since 1996. Admittedly they did win 3 times out of 4 years back then. In their poll the Packers are currently top.
Should Dallas Cowboys still be...
Giants won the New York derby (I suppose that’s really the New Jersey derby). Once again it shows what a fat, useless, tosser Rex Ryan is and what an overrated QB Mark Sanchez is.
Good to see the Pats beat the Broncos and secure the AFC East title with Tom Brady showing he’s still the Man. The whole Tebow thing was starting to get a bit irritating.
Big New York fixture on Christmas Eve with the Giants and the Jets battling it out. I’d back the Giants.
Well, that’s the end of the Jets season - beaten 17-13 by the Broncos with a great last minute touchdown by Tim Tebow. So much for Rex Ryan's pledge to get the Jets to the SuperBowl. He really is starting to look like an overated coach
Bad weekend for New York. Giants beaten 27-20 by the 49ers and the Jets have just been hammered 37-16 by the Pats. Rex Ryan desperately wanted to win in front of the home crowd especially with the Pats recent 2 game losing streak. But Ryan reckoned without Brady and Ninkovitch who were just too...
The Meadowlands Stadium (now Metlife Stadium) is really impressive, haven’t seen the Jets or Giants play there but did see the USA / Argentina soccer game played there and it’s a great atmosphere. Easy to get to by train from NYC and a huge car park for the tailgate parties, Cannot understand...
The new NFL rule that requires all scoring plays to be reviewed by a booth official is rapidly becoming a shambles. The initial worry was that this new rule would delay games, but a bigger problem has now come to light. This Sunday two dodgy touchdowns went unreviewed – including one in the Pats...
Jets defence rendered the Jags quarterback Luke McCown useless in yesterday’s 32-3 victory at Meadowlands. How dominating were Gang Green? The Jags, whose only score was Josh Scobee’s field goal, never got into the red zone. Lot of pressure on the Giants tonight in their game against the Rams as...
Waiting to see if Peter King of Sports Illustrated gets it right again. He was right on the money last time predicting a Superbowl between the Packers and the Steelers. This time he’s gone for the Falcons taking down the Chargers.
The Sports Illustrated NFL Preview is always a good read with...
