Carolina has some major injury concerns in the secondary as they prepare to host Eli Manning and the Giants on Sunday in a game crucial for both 0-2 teams.
Get that surround sound ready...
'Boomer's Fantasy' for Week 3 of the NFL fantasy football season involve a couple of young wide receivers…
The defensive line played a huge role in the Giants' run to a Super Bowl title two years ago. It slipped a little last season as New York missed the playoffs and it's been almost non-existent in the 0-2 start this year.
Coughlin was dealing with more than the Giants' 0-2 start Wednesday, and most of his players knew it. The team's poor play was insignificant compared to what the 67-year-old Coughlin had been through the past 48 hours.
"Yeah, some people call me the black Tim Tebow," the 24-year-old told Muscle and Fitness. "I am a virgin. I'm not ashamed to say that."
John Coughlin had lived in New Jersey for more than 20 years, working in harness racing. He owned and operated Coughlin's Stables at the Meadowlands.
Not to predict that this team will be anywhere near its home locker room in MetLife Stadium on Super Bowl Sunday, but the Giants have put on quite a show before following an 0-2 start.
Club-level seats in the mezzanine -- which have access to restaurants -- are likely to cost something in the neighborhood of $2,600, league officials told The Wall Street Journal.
A federal appeals court dealt another blow to New Jersey's efforts to legalize sports gambling Tuesday, upholding a ruling that the state's betting law conflicts with federal law and shouldn't be implemented.
"We have a lack of excitement on the sideline," the two-time Pro Bowler told reporters. "When I look up and down the sidelines, sometimes we're in it and sometimes we're not. I don't know what the reason is for that."
The Carolina Panthers have been a victim of early season bad luck, while the New York Football Giants have been a victim of their own poor play. Can the Giants defense slow down the Panthers Cam Newton and Steve Smith, in order to get their first win of the young season?
The last time an NFL team made the playoffs after starting 0-2 was in 2008. In the last four seasons, though, 0-2 has been the kiss of death.
To hear Eli Manning tell it, there are worse things than allowing 77 points and throwing seven interceptions in two games.
The network said Monday it was the highest preliminary rating for its first national game of the season since CBS reacquired NFL rights in 1998.
