The Redskins possess the NFL's most dynamic rookie in quarterback Robert Griffin III. And if that's not enough, the Giants need to remember how they were swept by a subpar Redskins team last season. So here are three matchups to watch.
The two-time Super Bowl MVP has been sacked a league-low five times through the first six games of the season, and he's been hit only 11 times -- total.
Eventually, gays and lesbians will be as accepted and acclimated as anyone else. You just wonder when, and how far along we've come. Perhaps the NFL will tell us.
"They weren't saying much," Cruz said. "I mean (in) the first couple of drives we were chatting a little bit, but after I scored one and we kept them out of the end zone pretty much the whole game they didn't have much to say in that second half."
"It was going to take a full team," Manning said. "Offense, defense and special teams all played really good football, and I think that was by far our best performance as a team."
The Giants issued a statement of their own to 49ers coach Jim Harbaugh on Sunday. Maybe the rest of the NFL, too.
Giants shut down San Francisco in a 26-3 victory over the 49ers on Sunday in a rematch of last season's NFC championship game.
Perhaps the only thing missing from this game are the stakes – it's only the sixth week of the regular season, although it's very possible the winner will be able to call upon this result to help gain a tiebreaker advantage for the playoffs.
There won't be any salsa-dancing controversies on Sunday at Candlestick Park when the Giants take on the San Francisco 49ers in a rematch of last season's NFC championship game. At least that's what 49ers cornerback Carlos Rogers has vowed.
As far as matching up with the Giants goes, the Niners still have to take a backseat. Here's two good reasons: The Giants are better at the quarterback position and at the head coaching slot.
"It feels good to be somebody that the younger guys can look up to and come to for advice whenever they need it," Cruz said. "It just so happens that in my third year I have to already switch hats and be the wise veteran to some of the younger guys."
Eli Manning chatted with Mike Francesa about the Giants' win over the Browns and previewed their big match-up against the 49ers.
The Giants undoubtedly have a high-powered offense, but their defense must prove they can hold.
The Giants road to the playoffs is going to get tougher in the weeks to come.
Victor Cruz is thinking about modifying his trademark endzone salsa dance.
Cruz made a career-best three touchdown catches and Bradshaw surpassed his yardage on the ground for the season with a career-high 200 as the New York Giants kept Cleveland winless, 41-27 Sunday.
Despite an injury report that includes 13 names, the Giants are more talented than most. And they cannot afford to dip under sea level with the gauntlet of a schedule they'll have to face, beginning next week in San Francisco.
New York Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks won't play in Sunday's game against Cleveland because of recurring left foot and knee problems.
"I think we're still kind of getting through the bumps and bruises of the season, and I think we're going to be alright," Cruz said. "I think we're getting to the chunk of our schedule in these upcoming weeks, and I think we'll be OK."
Getting off to an 0-2 start in the NFC East isn't causing the Super Bowl-champion Giants to hit the panic button. Far from it.
Eli Manning joined Mike Francesa a day after the Giants' loss to the Eagles on Sunday night. He shared his thoughts on the tough defeat, which ended on a missed 54-yard field goal by Lawrence Tynes.
The Giants' offensive game-plan was far too predictable. In most cases, Eli has proven he's capable of carrying the Giants' hopes with his magical arm, but what he needed was a little help from his running backs.
When Lawrence Tynes got a do-over, LeSean McCoy couldn't watch. "I was so nervous, praying please let him miss it," McCoy said. Well, he did.
Tynes missed two field-goal tries from 54 yards with 15 seconds left and the Philadelphia Eagles held on for a 19-17 victory.
Eli Manning will be cool under pressure on Sunday night and will inspire the Giants to victory over the Eagles.
