- Giants Season Saved On Forgotten Play, Coughlin Gets Lucky
[Recreation-and-Sports:Football] Eli Manning received all of the accolades for leading two touchdown drives that eventually lead to winning the game. The defense received its praise for making big stops when they had to. Something a Giants defense hasn't done since it was anchored by a guy named Taylor. No need to mention a first name of the greatest linebacker in history.
- In 7 Minutes the Eli Manning Era Could Have Ended
[Recreation-and-Sports:Football] An ending to what could have been the biggest trade blunder in the history of the New York Giants nearly came crashing down on Sunday as the Giants trailed the Bears 16 - 7 with less than 7 minutes to go. Giants QB Eli Manning has struggled for the better of the last 6 quarters he has played. His timing has been off and his decisions have been atrocious at best.
- Giants Gear Up For A Motivated Bears Team

[Recreation-and-Sports:Football] Less than a year ago, fans and the NY Media were calling for the head of Tom Coughlin. We heard names like Charlie Weiss (How's ND doing this year Charlie?), Bill Cowher, Bill Parcells and a slew of others.

- Giants Win In Motown - Let Lions Stick Around
[Recreation-and-Sports:Football] This was one of those victories that you can chalk up as ugly. The Giants prevailed in the game 16 - 10, however the offense gave the Lions way too many chances, and in a big game against a good team (like we saw a week ago against the Cowboys), the better teams will take advantage of those mistakes and make you pay.
- Eli Manning Takes Heat All Week - Hopes To Rebound From Last Sunday
[Recreation-and-Sports:Football] There is no question that when your last name is Manning, you are automatically going to be scrutinized due to the success of your father and Super bowl MVP champion brother. If you add to that the fact that the team you play for mortgaged a great deal in regards to draft picks, then you have just put more pressure on yourself to succeed.

[Recreation-and-Sports:Football] From Section 120 at Sunday's game against their division rival the Dallas Cowboys, the only exciting thing I saw were the dozen or so fights in the stands. More on that in my next blog entry. The game did not get off to a good start with the Cowboys quickly marching down the field and scoring a touchdown. However Big Red (for those ugly red unis), was able to bounce back and tie it up.
