Giants 26 - 49ers 3 (4-2)

In what was expected to be a very physical slugfest from the two NFC title match contenders from the previous year turned into a beatdown Sunday. Man I had no clue this was coming and it is a good sign looking forward to this hellacious schedule.

The offense did not put up high powered numbers, but it was balanced and effective. Eli completed just 15 for 193 and 1 TD and Bradshaw racked up an impressive 116 yards on the ground. Just a few issues getting the ball into the box in the red zone again. That WILL come back to get us in the future against teams that are capable of making a comeback as trading field goals for TD's is a recipe for disaster.

The major story here was not how impressive or dominating the 49ers D was....but more about the Giants Defense. Forcing 3 INT's (2 by Rolle) and having A. Smith on the run for a good portion of the game is a great sign moving forward. 6 sacks and 3 picks....I'll take that, with a W of course, any day.

The O-Line is doing work making room for Bradshaw. Which in turns means Eli doesn't have to throw 40-50 times a game. Nicks should slowly be working his way back to full health. While the back-ups have continued to show promise its always good to have your starters on the field down the stretch. And another week, I'm seeing D. Wilson gain more confidence running the ball. Guy has some legs on him. If him &  Andre Brown can keep their legs fresh, we can begin to run the ball late in the game as defenders legs get weak. The 3 RB system has worked before...how do you think Bradshaw got noticed. (2007 - B. Jacobs, D. Ware & A. Bradshaw).

Next Game: VS The Redskins

I'm expecting a high scoring affair here. RG3 is looking VERY promising for the skins. However, their receiving options are limited and I feel like it will come down to proper containment (side eyes Osi). The mistakes made against Vick in the game against  Philly should have been addressed and corrected for this game. But we will see how this goes......


GO GIANTS!!!!
