I agree with carlostelevida

Unless Peyton Manning is wearing a Giants jersey dont expect Eli to know what to do.

Peyton is an elite QB and has faced our defense quite a lot of times already and knows what to expect. When our defense is at its best with everyone not injured our team has the best defense hands down.

2 years ago we kept Manning to 0 TDs in the playoffs but still lost. BUT.... we kept someone who shouldve scored 5 times to FGs.

1 year ago we lost quite a lot of guys on defense which really hurt the Ravens Defense as a whole. We still kept the best Run Defense though.

This year we are still shaky on defense due to Chris McAllister and Dawan Landry being out on IR and Samari Rolle will need to shake off rust.

So Imagine if we had all our guys on defense. Then you would really have to wish Peyton was wearing a Giants jersey.

To be honest, I am quite fine with Eli. He doesn't put up gaudy numbers, nor does he need to. He has been very clutch for us on numerous occasions, especially the post-season last year. This will be a tough match-up, but it should be a good one. I don't see either team scoring more than 21-24 points.

LoL. Yea I agree with you except 1 game. The Packers and Giants one. Your defense was the one that kept the Packers away from getting a TD or FG. Your kicker sucked in that game though. He finally got it right the 3rd time. If I was a Giants fan Id want a new kicker.

We have had a new kicker all year, "John Carney", and he has been money. He only missed 1 FG due to it being blocked by the Browns. But our other kicker, "Lawrence Tynes", was injured and is now doing kickoffs. Tynes is not great, but you try kicking the pigskin accurately in below 0 weather. Not an easy task my friend.

Also, Eli was pretty solid in that game, 2 TD's, no INT's and him and Burress lit it up for 164 yds. Burress owned Al harris that game.

Yea. I thought Al Harris would lock up his guy but he was doing nothing that game. Was a good game though.

Dreaming aint easy is it for many of you raven fans... if was a 5 then we can all get drunk... with what your saying about injuries and thats all a part of the game about defense but I do recall that we had injuries on our Super Bowl run and this year as well plus a retirement. Suck it up and stop dreaming period. Also Peyton has a ring but Eli does as well... get back to me when Joe Flacco gets fitted for one will you and he will be accomodated with sacks on our field come sunday.

[quote name='carlostelevida' post='88610' date='Nov 12 2008, 02:27 AM']well giants fans, wake up we've faced the # 1 D in the NFL, the steelers,
so we lost thats a minus, but,

flacco was in his third start and with a few pass plays for him, if you remember harbaug did't challenge a TD pass to the mase, so

we lost in overtime in the most hostile stadium in the nfl by 3 points on MNF,

boys:

don't take me bad, but this game will be lights out for the giants,

really, you will know what where about.

you didn't know what you're in for, so

the media will have to tell you what happen to you the day before.

sory for eli, finally he will meet the "THING"

HELLOOOOOOOOOOOO
IS PEYTON MANNING WEARING A GIANTS JERSEY ?[/quote]


Keep Hope Alive... The only lights out might be Joe Flacco this sunday at Giant Stadium and thank you for enlightening everyone that the Steelers defense is rank 1 in the NFL and you lost to your division rivals thats a fact and you lost whether by 3 or 30... you lost period. We beat them in there house period and a team that plays in there home field suppose to hold serve in case you dont understand that... its call home field advantage... thank you. Now the Titans came in your home and beat you and I know thats kind of rough but please keep on thinking that Joe will not have a long day come sunday. Yes we lost to Cleveland at there place and you guy beat your division rivals which you suppose to but this is a brand new ball game come sunday believe that and come monday I will break it down to you very much so.

Regardless of whether we win or lose your DL wont get into Joe Flaccos head. He has shook off a lot of what teams have thrown at him and got better. We have faced a lot of good DLs in previous games as well as standout players on a teams front 7.

Shaun Rodgers twice
Titans DL
Steelers DL
Colts DL
Mario Williams
Joey Porter

So weve had quite a few guys that weve faced that are good. Itll still be tough though. But if our OL played like it did against the Titans and Steelers front 4 then you should only expect about 3 sacks.
