When questioned Umenyiora took a different approach and responded by saying: Continue reading

New York Giants Are Tom Brady’s Kryptonite

New York Giants Tom Brady's KryptoniteEvery super hero has a weakness and for Tom Brady the New York Giants are  his equivalent of Superman’s Kryptonite.

The GMEN present a serious problem for the Patriots and Tom Terrific. Without a doubt they are the most complete team New England has faced in the playoffs. Throw away regular season stats where an injured Giants team suffered through a very tough season. When the playoffs began New York had most of their starters back and were clicking on both offense and defense.

Here are the unique issues New England will face in Super Bowl XLVI (46). Continue reading

New York Giants Are The Most Dangerous Team in The Playoffs

New York Giants PlayoffsIs it possible that the 9-7 New York Giants are the most dangerous team in the playoffs?

It may sound funny to some but the team has been playing much better and ended their regular season on a high note. Their tough schedule and all the adversity they faced during the season with injuries has made them stronger and tougher to beat.

Something else to consider is how they played the top teams in the NFC. The Green Bay Packers needed a last minute drive by Aaron Rodgers to secure a win. The game with the San Francisco 49ers also came down to the last possession. Both were extremely tight games which could have gone either way. The only team which blew the New York Giants out of the water was the New Orleans Saints and that is the only team that really Continue reading

Injury News NY Giants Safety Kenny Phillips Likely to Miss Game vs Cowboys

Kenny Phillips GiantsMore bad injury news NY Giants Safety Kenny Phillips likely to miss the game vs the Dallas Cowboys week 14.

Phillips suffered and injury during the week 13 game against the Green Bay Packers. He was able to get up and limp off the field but his facial expression would lead you to believe it wasn’t going to be good news for New York. The Giants released his injury status and sure enough number 21 suffered a sprained MCL which means in all likelihood he will miss this weeks important NFC East showdown against the Cowboys.

New York will be relying on yet another rookie in Tyler Sash to pick up the slack. Depending on how Phillips progresses with the injury he is expected to be out for at least a week. Unfortunately the New York Giants cannot catch a break in 2011, they have suffered injuries all season long which have prevented Big Blue from fielding an adequate defensive squad.

As for the rest of the teams injuries it is still unclear if Osi Umenyira Continue reading
