Post subject:  My Week 1 Upset

Defending champions have won their opening game every year since 1999 and the Giants have beaten the Cowboys 7 out of the last 9 games. That will end on Wednesday. The Giants have too many question marks on offense IMO and the Cowboys will be looking to send them a message. I know Eli has 2 SB rings but I'm not convinced he's better than Romo or that the Giants are better than the Cowboys. Take the Cowboys and the points

Cowboys win 24-16

Are you sure you didnt read the Cowboys preview and transpose the facts?

Witten, Austin, Murray all dinged up

Giants looked really good on offense in the pre?

Giants secondary, big issue

That's alright, Cowboys don't have a QB worth anything anyways.

I was surprised the spread was only 3.5. I was thinking it should be more like 14. As a cowboys fan, I dont feel very confident. Best thing going is that it is the first game and all...and maybe the cowboys can play great & beat a distracted giants team busy looking at their rings..

I think the Giants will win big. I see them being like that '08 post-SB team that started 10-1. They have a top 3 passing game probably and a solid running game. JPP might be the best DL in the league. I think they'll beat the Cowboys easily, 38-17.

This is why I called it an upset pick. Cowboys will be ready to play.

Make a point to watch more than ESPN highlights this year and report back with a smarter opinion.

They were only 9-7 last year because of injuries! When healthy they'll be unstoppable!

Because Scorehead is a known bigot, but unlike Elmhurst Steve, he is in denial. I just wanted to remind him that the guy he was praising is black.

Why do I got to be a moron? And yes, a bunch of smiles after your comment would have avoided any confusion.

To be fair, he never criticized a minority's ability to be a good football prognosticator. He just wants an armed soldier on every corner where they live...
