Updated NFC Playoff Predictions, Can the New York Giants Repeat
The New York Giants are the returning Superbowl Champions. The last Champions to repeat were the Patriots. Can the Giants pull it off?
NFC East
Philadelphia (11-5) Big things were expected of the Eagles and Vick last year. This year is no different. I think they pull things together this season.

The Good
I gotsta get paid!
Kevin Ogletree. Poor Miles Austin. Poor Dez Bryant. Kevin Ogletree made you look bad. Moreover, he made you an after-thought. The big names, with the big contracts, continue to get overshadowed by previously unknown 3rd receivers. Kevin Ogletree had...
Eli Manning Hooks Up With Dominick Hixon For Deep Jump Ball
It took Eli Manning three quarters to get in sync with his wide receivers, but when it clicked it was working quite well. With just over six minutes left in the third quarter Eli Manning let a deep ball go to Dominick Hixon who was in double coverage but managed to time his jump better than the defenders and come down with a fantastic grab for a 39-yard gain. Hixon ended up...
Jerry Jones makes his son-in-law clean his glasses for him (animated GIF)
Jerry Jones is filthy stinking rich. He is also something of an egomaniac. And when you put those two things together and toss in a few other character flaws — like enjoying the act of belittling people by making them perform menial, personal tasks — on top of egomania, you have evidence that the Dallas [...]
Cowboys pull off stunner in opener
The Dallas Cowboys waited all year for another shot at the New York Giants. When they got it in the 2012 season opener, they were ready.
So were the replacement officials, who barely were a story as Dallas dominated the Super Bowl champions for much of a 24-17 victory Wednesday night that wasn't nearly so close.
It won't make up for the New Year's Day loss that cost...
Jason Witten: (Spleen) Doubtful for Opener

Bradshaw Rewards Fantasy Managers In Week 1
New York Giants running back Ahmad Bradshaw rushed for 78 yards and scored a touchdown Wednesday in the season opener.Fantasy Spin:Bradshaw handled 17 carries to David Wilson's two. Bradshaw is still a major part of the Giants offense and Wilson is going to have to wait to get his shot to take over, especially after he fumbled Wednesday.
Kiwanuka: JPP can break record with 30 sacks
The New York Giants begin their title defense tonight, and one of the biggest reasons they were able to win it all last year is Jason Pierre-Paul. The 3rd round beast of a defensive end terrorized offenses, specifically QBs in limited reps. He started in only 12 of the 16 games he played in, and [...]
Floyd Mayweather wins $200k on the Dallas Cowboys
All Floyd Mayweather Jr. does is win win win, no matter what. His Billy Walters like streak continues as he wagers a cool $200k on the Dallas Cowboys second half line (+1.5) last night. And like always Tony Romo and his friends made “Money” look good by winning the third and fourth quarter 17-14 over the New York Giants.
Why even step into the ring anymore if you’re this good...

Former New York Giants running back Tiki Barber and Dr. Ruth Westheimer attend the DuJour Magazine Launch Party Hosted by Jason Binn and Bruce Weber at Capitale in New York City.

Opening Day- Dallas vs the GMen
Some opening day thoughts at the start of the 2012 season...
1) "I am a Jedi, like my father before me." Yes, the Force runs strong in Eli's family. Eli can sense pass rushers that he cannot even see. He has mastery of his weapons, including Cruz and Nicks. Add Bradshaw, Wilson and a healthy TE, and Eli can be lethal.
2) "Fear is the path to the Dark...
Hakeem Nicks runs into replacement ref, ref says "ow" (Video)
As the Dallas Cowboys beat the New York Giants to start off the 2012 NFL season, the replacement referees didn't do a terrible job of calling the action.
Nearing the end of the game, head referee Jim Core was calling a penalty against the Dallas Cowboys when he was ran into by New York Giants wide receiver Hakeem Nicks.
Watch as Core expresses his displeasure after...
