Great win...Defense was outstanding down the stretch...The key play in my mind was the fourth down conversation pass to Toomer that lead to the 4th FG...that was huge after the confusion and delay of game penalty...
The Plaxico issues continue...sat at the start of the game and fined for more absenteeism...Did you see him motioning Eli to spike the ball after the time out before the penalty on the 4th down play which preceded? Where was his head at?
Another big game Sunday...Dallas - might be a good time to catch them, but the G-men must play better....

AN UGLY WIN, BUT MOVING ON...
Sunday's win was ugly...what happened to the running game in the 2nd half?
Now it's time to get serious...Pittsburgh, Dallas and Philly in a row..this will be difficult, but we will see how good the G-Men really are...
Of course, we have the sideshow that is Plaxico going back to Pittsburgh....

In response to a comment, I checked the rules and it's only open to those 18 and older....
UGH! NOT A GOOD NIGHT....
You knew it was going to happen...The G-Men come crashing back to Earth. Monday's game is just a blip, but with a very tough 2nd half schedule - every win now is important...the good news is the Giants get San Fran Sunday and they should win that one before a tough match with the Steelers.
A fitting post-script to Monday's game...spent the 1st half at my neighbor's house (a Browns fan) and found a couple of notes on my car about the Browns win. When I came home Tuesday around 11am, I found a dead squirrel in the street in front of my house...resisted the temptation of leaving it at the neighbor's with a sign GIANTS OFFENSE...

MORE PLAX PROBLEMS...
http://www.nypost.com/seven/10082008/sports/giants/rental_car_trouble_for_burress_132576.htm
This latest story really has me scratching my head...but then again, why does it surprise me? If you've been reading this column all along, you know I'm not a big Plaxico fan...I think the Giants made a mistake giving him an extension...his behavior and antics will hurt the team rather than help it. He's one of those athletes who just doesn't get it...and with Drew Rosenhaus around to enable him, he will never grow up. I just hope he's smart with his money...otherwise, he'll be another sad case of a ballplayer who never grew up and does something stupid (see OJ, Jim Leyritz, & Rae Carruth).
Monday night awaits against the Cleveburgh Browns...
