New York at San Francisco (01/22/2012)

Plus Mr. Manning won't have the luxury of sitting back there all day in the pocket. Of course the officials & home crowd will help SF. That's why it's called home field advantage. And statistically ,SF has a rather large one. I think in the end it'll be Manning & Coughlin who do the folding under pressure.  Anyway- good luck- this will be their last game this season!

Rushing attack...edge: GMen, Gore hasnt had a 100 yard game in how long.  BRING ON BIG BLUE'S 2 HEADED MONSTER peaking at the right time

WR...edge: Big Blue...with Cruz in the slot and Manningham and Nix on the outside, he will demand the double team, and open up single coverage for Nix & Manningham.  Both of which are stellar.  and because Cruz is so dangerous, and will demand the double team , means he is that good

Update: Ginn is either gonna play as a gimp or not play at all. THIS WILL AFFECT FIELD POSITION TREMENDOUSLY.  he averages about 13 yards a return on punts...startign Alex Smith from the 25 or the 40 is a big difference vs Blues D Line.

Alex smith over achieved last week...i dont thik he had over 300 yards all year... and 5 turnovers usually helps.

However, i know the conditions and the track will be rough, but the gmen are built for this weather and rough terrain. 

Also the giants have not allowed more then like 6 saks in the last 4-5 games, its something really close to that.

Also, 49ers are either missing are playing with a significantly banged up TE and i think its a linebacker

experience...edge: Gmen,  especially on the road

yes, the homefield & weather will help the 49ers stay in it and maybe keep it close, but...

BIG BLUE  money line

 

Chef MONEY

how can you see the Giants shut down Frank Gore when he only had 6 carries, and he was injured, and didn't start?

This was actually brought up on WFAN this afternoon with Mike Francesa (Giant fan and Jets hater btw lol).....  he told the caller that it was rediculous to say Gore got shut down.....

you do make a great point with the WR's..... should be hard to cut for both teams....

but, Giants are the more explosive team and will be hindered more by the slow track.... the muddy field positively plays into the 49ers strenght....

I don't buy the fact that both pass rushes will be neutralized by the wet field.... but Eli will get much more leway than Alex Smith.... 49ers will play close to the vest....

Rangers you say- great team when I lived there- win a Stanley Cup every 50 years!  Don't let me catch up with you when I visit.

Over an inch of rain is expected in the next 24 hours, with scattered rain through the weekend. My question is, how does Candlestick's grass hold up? Will the grass be soaked come gametime? Proper drainage? is there anyway to know if the field goes to shit? Will the NYG pass rush have enough footing to get to the QB ?

( GLIB )  handicapping  methodologies that I use,  but I instead choose to leave that to others, while I post a final play selection. As for the Balt/NE game- The Ravens will cover if they bring their A game, that was in reference to QB Joe Flacco's underperformance (which is well documented with his spat with Ed Reed), as well Off. Coordinator Cam Cameron's ultra conservative play calling which I feel  ?   ( like the rest of the world ) has stifled offensive production. You just gotta realize Mr. Easy Pics- that somewhere out there ,there might actually be someone slightly a little more slick ?  than you pretend to be. GL- have a nice game , and as always it's a real pleasure speaking to nonentities like yourself.
