The Giants just find ways to win. Other teams in their division are wilting and the Giants came back with a strong win after a rough loss last week. Ely played well as did the defense (10 points allowed). The Rams have beaten both the Skins and Cowboys after starting 0-4. The Giants are in great shape getting towards the half way mark of the season.
The Jets - Oh the Jets! - this is a vintage loss that was due to tough interceptions and little offensive movement. Thomas Jones actually had a great game, but Favre could not get much done and did throw 2 interceptions. The Jets need to win this week against KC. The pathetic Chiefs will be without their best offensive player - Larry Johnson.
Around the league a few interesting developments took place this week:
To start from the back end, on Monday night, Matt Cassel showed big stuff against the battered Broncos defense. The AFC East must keep an eye on the Pats. They will not go down easily, even without Brady. On Brady, the bad knee he has is fixed but very badly infected. The Patriots are ticked off about how he is handling the surgery and they are doubly annoyed that the doctor who tried fixing the infection did not get the job done. If this gets worse, Brady may not be ready for next season.
The Bills keep rolling along. The Jets have a huge game against in Buffalo in a couple of weeks. This should tell the Jets where they stand.
What is up with the Chargers? I guess they just don't understand what it takes this year. I question whether LT is still the same player. He may be getting old fast. He took a lot of carries in years past and he has flashes of greatness, but nothing consistent. They are a serious waste of talent.
The same question can be asked on the Colts. What is the deal with Peyton have a 50% completion percentage, 2 picks and no touchdowns. His knee is obviously still an issue.
I expect the Bears to win the NFC North. The team has lost 3 games by only 8 points, are in every game and play in a bad division. The Packers and Vikings are too inconsistent and the Lions are a shameful organization.
