***Official Manning Bowl, "Giants vs Colts." Thread***

So yeah, the game is in NY, but Peyton is the better QB. Should be a damn good game, but Coughlin will screw it up - I'm a Giants fan, but Dungy is better.

In the spirit of 2+2....Lovers and haters, bring it.

I'm not really a fan of either team, but I might be slightly biased against the Colts since I'm a NE fan. That said, I like the Giants here. Peyton is overrated. The Colts lost Edge. Meanwhile, Eli has something to prove in front of his home crowd; that he's not just going to stay in his brother's shadow forever. Yes, the Harrison/Wayne combo is probably better than the Burress/Toomer combo, but the Giants have a proven running back with Tiki. This should be a very good game either way.

What has Dungy ever done to show that hes a better coach? His TB team won as soon as he left, and hes had tons of talent in Indy and never been able to win anything. Furthermore, his QB pretty much runs their offense while he just focuses on the defense, which until last year had been horrible.

I think he has hugely increased the chance of them winning the Super Bowl. They have improved a lot, and in particular match up better with other top AFC teams. Someone else might be better but he's helped them a lot imo.

Not a huge Dungy fan, but when your offense has Peyton, Reggie, Edge, and Marvin Harrison you have no money to spend on defense. He's done a very good job of making a cap efficient D.

Ugh, how did Andrea Kremer get a job on-air? Particularly horrible in HD.

pretty sure Indy's defense was dead last in the league before Dungy.
