Monday Morning QB

Are the New York Giants that much better then every other team in football?


No. Even last years Giants team with Osi and Strahan was better. Its just that every other team in the NFL is just not that good (with the exception of the Titans so far). The NFL is league based on parity, and this year it is more evident then any other. Any team can beat any other on any given sunday. Wow I used any a lot in that sentence. What truly establishes a great team in todays NFL is a coaching staff and lack of injuries. The present Giants work on a lot of the same cylinders as last years Patriots, minus the cheating. No one player is bigger then team. No single player is bigger then the team. Tiki leaves, 3 other RB's jump in with big numbers. Strahan and Osi leave... Justin Tuck jumps in. Shockey out for the year? Enter Boss. Even when Burress is suspended... Sinorice Moss nabs 2 TD's. Even though I hate to admit it.. David Carr is a great back up, and the team might not suffer too much if Eli went down. The true genius on the Giants, and next great future NFL head coach, is Defensive Coordinator Steve Spurrier. Bill Bellichick started as a Defensive Coordinator on a Super Bowl Giants and look where he is now. The Giants have all the makings of a repeat and a dynasty, but in todays NFL I feel it is damn near impossible. Todays NFL is not about superstars... like the megastar Cowboy driven league... it is about great coaching and team play. The Patriots dynasty didn't have many superstars and actually failed when it added them (Randy Moss). The same can be said for the Giants, as they seem to thrive with less stars (Shockey, Tiki). Now here is where my problem comes... the Giants are looking to add Tony Gonzalez to the team. Now he is great, one of if not the best Tight Ends of all time. But when the sauce tastes just right why are you going to throw in some more spice? See my drift. Adding him may actually throw Eli off again and be the downfall of this team. Just my two cents.

BTW... make sure to watch that video below... that might be the most bizaare clip I ever posted on here.
