Default *******OFFICIAL Giants vs Eagles Thread********

The Giants have played well in Philly the past two years and appear to be the more talented team. That said they've been playing poorly for two months. Tough game to predict.

From the Post:

"I love this game plan!" Tiki Barber said outside the Big Blue locker room, across from the Super Bowl XXI and XXV insignias on the wall.

Why is that?

"Just because on an anticipatory level, we kinda know what they're gonna do to us," Barber said. "And, we put in some things that are designed to take advantage of them. It's gonna give us a chance to get the ball in our playmakers' hands and have us make some big plays. It's exciting. Our game plan is something that we have juice about."

"I think what Carolina tried to do to us, we're trying to do to Philly," Barber said.

Tiki is better than Westbrook, Burress is better than Brown, Shockey is better than Smith, etc

Karak,

I take that as they went into their gameplans and it pretty much is as follows:

"We will be giving Tiki the ball in 95% of our plays. The only time Eli will touch the ball is in 3rd down 8-13 yards."

Okay, so they are slightly more talented at some of the main skill positions, but what about other positions? Eli is absolutely horrendous compared to Garcia or McNabb, etc.

Eli won't be asked to win this game for the G-Men, just as he wasn't in washington. The game plan will center more around the running game.

Tiki only averaged 3.1 yards a carry against the Eagles this year though
