In what can only be considered bad news, Antonio Pierce is out indefinitely with a bulging disc in his neck. Mike Garafolo is reporting it.
Well this is tough to swallow. The entire defense was finally back together for exactly zero games. The excitement over the return of Aaron Ross is now ...

Aaron Ross took snaps at practice today with the second unit, but not at corner. Ross was playing, the much maligned, safety position. Don’t expect any moves right away but it could be coming down the stretch, especially if Aaron Rouse struggles with his newly acquired starting spot. ...

After their bye week the Giants are as healthy as they are going to get. CB Aaron Ross has practiced 4 straight days (on a limited basis) but is rearing to go. “I feel really good today, happy to be out there, so I’m excited,” Ross said. “If I’m healthy all the way up until Sunday, I’ll be out ...

1. Run The Ball
Last week against the Atlanta Falcons, the Carolina Panthers rushed for 185 yards on 34 carries, a 5.4 average. Their top two running backs combined for 30 carries, 174 yards and two touchdowns. Needless to say, the Atlanta Falcons can be run on, and that was the key to the ...

The Giants have lost four in a row and fans are getting nervous. Will we shape up and make the playoffs? Or will this season just continue to spiral right down the toilet?
The chances of making the playoffs seem more likely as each day passes. The ...

Coming off the bye week, the New York Giants will be going into a battle with a team that looks like it may be competing for the same playoff spot the Giants are looking to grab. The Atlanta Falcons are coming into town this Sunday, and a win for the Giants will be big, not just to end their ...

With the NFC South and NFC North all but locked up, there are four remaining playoff births up for grabs in the NFC.
While divisional leaders Dallas and Arizona have the upper hand, their hard work is not nearly over. The Eagles, Packers, Falcons and Giants are all 5-4, and are right in the ...

Giants second round pick LB Clint Sintim missed much of the early year with a groin injury, and while he has been active for the last 4 games much of his playing time has been on special teams. That all changed last week when Sintim saw 11 snaps with the base defense. In those 11 snaps Sintim ...

The Giants bye week couldn’t have worked out better, but in more ways then you may think. Yes the Eagles and Cowboys losses were huge gains for the Giants but not the only ways the Gmen won this past Sunday (technically they didn’t actually win at all but allow me to speak in the ...

Dallas, Philly Losses Give Giants Back Some Momentum
One of the most fun things to be during football season is a writer. It’s also one of the most frustrating.

The Giants stand at 5-4 after nine games. Four of their five victories came against some of the NFL’s worst clubs.
In their losses in New Orleans and Philadelphia, they were blown right off the field. In the home losses to Arizona and San Diego, the Giants squandered golden ...

After four straight losses, each one more painful than the last, Giants fans have a right to be pessimistic. After two blowouts and two games that they let slip through their hands, the Giants let their lead in the NFC East slip away as well. They now sit at 5-4 and are on the outside of the ...

As I was perusing the Newark Star-Ledger’s NJ.com, I came across an article written by NJ.com writer David Liss. The article was titled “Things the Giants Should do on Their Week Off” and the first sentence written by Mr. Liss read:
“As a Philly fan, my delight at the ...
