Found August 16, 2012 on Obsessed With Sports: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Eli Manning
TEAMS: New York Giants

Every season RDM obsesses on the NFL team win total over/unders. It’s one of the more fun bets in all of sports. A single well-placed bet turns an otherwise random team into a must see weekly event. Today we look at the 2012 New York Giants . The number: 8.5 Eli Manning is a ******* winner. That point has been proven again, and again, and again. The rest of this division is filled with a bunch of bonafide losers. That point has been proven again, and again, and again. And again. At the end of the day, the NFC East is just another day at the beach for Eli and the Giants. This is more a pick against the Eagles, ‘Skins and Cowboys. That should be at least 5 wins for the G-men right there. Injuries, which are a massive part of any pre-season over.under bet, are my only concern with the Giants. The team played a lot of games last year. Barring a rash of untimely injuries, the Giants trot to an NFC East title. The pick: over 8.5 win

Ahmad Bradshaw and the Giants offense will look to get things going against a tough Jets defense. When you combine a trash talking cornerback, a couple of  training camp brawls, a camp holdout, and  a QB controversy with a dash of “Tebowmania”, what you get is the New York Jets offseason in a nutshell. The Jets have been the talk of the town for more reasons than just one as...

No team goes in looking to lose, not even in preseason football.  But the outcome of the game aside, both the Giants and Jets have players to keep your eyes on.  While there will be battles at multiple positions, we will focus on three individuals to keep your eyes on for both teams.  It is safe to assume you can name at least one from each team, so I will try not to go with the...

When I wed my beautiful bride nearly a decade ago, I married into her rabid fanaticism for the Denver Broncos. I have adopted the team as my own.
