Here we go again. The only question is whether it will all be over by half time or will it take all four quarters for the Ravens to wrap it up.

Go, Big Blue!

The Giants are 16 point underdogs at home, which is insane

Expecting MANY Ravens fans to buy the tix cheap on Stubhub and make the trip up the tpke.

I wonder if they will go below $1 lol I think I saw a Tweet for the last game that someone had a ticket same day for $1, and other few for like $8

Lamar Jackson is playing left handed just to make it interesting.
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."
~ Coach Tom Coughlin

Big game for Devito...if he keeps it close does he show enough to be next year QB2 ?

Expect a letdown from Baltimore. But it will be a "home" game for them. You won't need a plane flying to tell you how low Mara's franchise has sunk.

Best over or under bet of the week

How many Giant defenders are willing to tackle Derrick Henry below the waist (by the legs) to actually get him to the ground?
  over or under two ?
My bet is under. 


Lots of business decisions by players coming this Sunday....except for those that were just added off the street to field a team..they will at least try in effort to make a roster next year.

I am hoping this game becomes a massive embarrassment for John Mara.  So much so that it spurs John to get off his ass and make the badly needed changes in the organization, and hold the right people accountable for this historically bad season.

You notice that too? It was the same tackling issues under Wink as well. Why aren't they coached to tackle with their arms and instead dive with their shoulders praying it will slow the runner down?

Mike Lombardi and Matt Patricia suggest that when players' pad levels start to rise as the season progresses, it's a sign of a team not practicing enough or practicing correctly.

Failure of form while tackling is an indication of a coaching staff who hasn't spent enough time teaching and drilling.

Rich,
This is very concerning and not a good sign for Daboll.

They don't wear pads like they used to. everyone has these small shoulder pads that really don't protect them much.  Look at difference between now and the late 90's and early 2000's.  and defenders can't lead with helmet now ...so if they go low and miss legs and hit above the waist they will be called for spearing or whatever...too many rules and new techniques for tackling safety.
