Let's see how the sports media talks about the G-Men now, as compared to the Skins yesterday.

Exactly, can't wait to hear Berman and Jackson tonight. They'll probably be making all kind of excuses for poor Eli and talk about how he's going to be great next year.

The Giants got beat bad today. Eli is only in his second year and has a lot of learning and growing to do. Thankfully, he was able to get this experience this year and maybe it will help him in the future. The Giants ran into a team today determined. The Panthers' defense played unbelieveable. They had a great game plan to stop Tiki and it worked. The Giants got beat, no other way to say it. And I don't want to make it an excuse because Lewis and Jackson were on the field but I doubt Foster has 150 yards if Pierce and Emmons are in there.

Sorry, Tom, but that was an excuse and it doesn't wash. The Redskins were missing their top two guys in the secondary and a starting DE, and still didn't give up a score against Tampa, which desperately needed one.

The Giants just got sprayed with a big ol' can of whoop-a$$ and clearly displayed that, beyond a couple of pass-rushing freaks at DE, the Giants have a long way to go before their defense can be considered playoff-caliber.

Tom, I hate to tell you this, but that's called playing a team in the playoffs. That's what seperates the contenders from the pretenders. A good team will play deteremined in the playoffs. The Jags were 12-4, yet they got smoked yesterday. That's because they are a soft team that played a soft schedule.

The Skins, now the Skins are not perfect. They aren't the best team in the league. But one thing Gibbs knows how to do is get his team to play 'determined' in the playoffs. Very rarely does his team simply roll over this time of year (the notable exception being the 83 SB.) We may not get past Seattle this year, but it won't be for lack of effort.

The Giants have to find a way to figure this out. They came out flat at the absolute worst time to do so. That's not a good sign. Hopefully (for you) they'll learn from this and show some moxie if they make it next year. Otherwise Coughlin, now 4-5 in the post-season, will join the ranks of Schottenheimer and Green as a really good regular season coach.
