Wide receiver Hakeem Nicks has been activated for the Giants against the 49ers in a rematch of last season's NFC championship game.
Many 49ers players stewed for months about that near-miss in the NFC title game, a sting that only became worse when Eli Manning and the Giants went on to win another championship.
Harbaugh accused Gilbride on Friday of making outrageous and incendiary comments about All-Pro defensive end Justin Smith in an effort to influence officials.
New York Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks has practiced for the second straight day, and there is a chance he will play on Sunday against the San Francisco 49ers in a rematch of the NFC title game.
The Jets are not going to win the division, but they can take baby steps, and that will put them in contention for an AFC Wild Card spot. It looks hopeless right now, but the schedule makers have given them a chance to rise up out of the muck.
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.
You outscore two teams 79-3, and even though they're the Jets and Bills, people take notice. The Giants certainly have.
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.
"With his teammates cheering him on, he did a sarcastic salsa dance over me," Cruz wrote in his book in regard to Rogers. "The Candlestick Park crowd went ballistic, but I wasn't laughing. It was a sign of disrespect."
"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."
Five weeks into the season we have two unbeaten teams and one winless team. Drew Brees broke a 52-year-old record once thought to be unbreakable. Everybody is over .500 in the NFC West, and what is wrong with the Packers?
You can be sure the Niners and their fans will be out for revenge on Sunday. Not that Giants coach Tom Coughlin is too concerned.
Eli Manning chatted with Mike Francesa about the Giants' win over the Browns and previewed their big match-up against the 49ers.
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.
The energetic do-it-all backup quarterback has been reduced mainly to a bit player. Not exactly what he — or everyone — expected. But if Tebow is frustrated with his limited role so far, Rex Ryan doesn't sense it.
The Jets need something, and putting Tebow in the lineup would certainly change the chemistry. Perhaps one or two Tebow plays might alter things. It's a long shot at best, but at least it's an opportunity to regain hope.
We're just four games into the season, and already there's talk of the Jets not giving their all.
The time is now for these Jets to come together and unite. Too bad Rex Ryan gave his team Monday off.
What's a bigger surprise through the first four weeks of this NFL season: the Cardinals at 4-0 or the Saints at 0-4? Maybe it's the 3-1 Vikings.
While the Jets are standing by Mark Sanchez right now, perhaps their biggest potential playmaker - Tim Tebow - is mostly just standing by.

Tim Tebow's biggest critic says maybe it's time for more of No. 15. But it wasn't exactly a ringing endorsement.
