The New England Patriots survived another big scare against the New York Giants by winning 38-35 and finished the regular season 16-0. I cheered my a$$ off for a loss, but it didn’t happen due to a little love from the refs and because the Giants folded under pressure. I still think the Patriots will falter in the postseason, but I have to tip my hat to the undefeated regular season along with Brady and Moss setting new records for the most touchdowns in a season in their positions respectively. Damnit!

The NFL announced today that the Patriots versus the Giants on Saturday night will be simulcast on NBC and CBS in conjunction with the NFL Network! The game was originally slated for the NFL Network only which doesn’t have as many viewers as ‘Leave it to Beaver’ on Nick at Nite. The NFL Network is in ongoing battles with cable companies demanding the station becomes part of regular cable which would in turn cost the consumers more money. This however is a generous move by Goodell and the NFL and one that is very much appreciated.

This one scares me a bit, but I have to go with them because the Falcons are an absolute mess right now.

Brandon Jacobs, Osi Umenyiora and Eli Manning all suffered injuries last night in the game at Dallas. Breaking news just out from Chris Mortensen states Manning has a slightly separated shoulder and is out at least a month. Giants camp is currently disagreeing with this report so something is up and it’s not the outlook on the Giant’s season.

May I ask why? Does he feel the Giants are going to be that poor this year that its not even worth his time to give it a shot? We all know he has a big career coming in TV gigs, but I think he is thinking of calling it quits to early. I find this quite odd and I was wondering what the SU.com peeps thought?

It’s not bad enough the New York Giants are enduring three straight losses and now facing a very tough game this week at home against the Dallas Cowboys. The players seem to believe it’s also time to start a civil war in the process. In recent weeks Tiki Barber and Jeremy Shockey have blasted their coaches for play selections and direction, but now things are even taking a turn for the worse. Michael Strahan made some comments earlier in the week based on the lack of effort and desire Plaxico Burress has displayed on certain plays. Basically stating directly to the media Burress is “giving up on plays and quitting on everybody.” This is an ugly scenario that isn’t getting any better and at 6-5 the Giants can’t afford to continue down this path.
