St. Louis (6-8) is bidding to become the first team to go four straight games without allowing a touchdown since Pittsburgh went five in a row in 2000. The Rams have never gone four straight games without yielding one. |
The Rams' pass rush has produced 35 sacks in the last nine games after amassing one in the first five. Manning, set to make his 166th consecutive regular-season start, was sacked 19 times during New York's seven-game slide from Oct. 12-Nov. 30, though he has been dropped once in consecutive wins since. |
In the 3 game stretch they have actually faced 6 different quarterbacks: Derek Carr/Matt Schaub , Colt McCoy/Bob, Drew Stanton/Ryan Lindley. Not exactly murderers' row, but it should be interesting.

Only the giants get fat on bad teams.

So there you go.
Run the ball, move Eli around by moving the pocket, and quick passing concepts. Try not to put yourself in long yardage situations. If we do, then we can always hand the ball off or call a draw.

Excellent point. The Rams allow an average of 21.2 points per game, and that includes only allowing 12 in the last 3 (Raiders, skins, cards). Take those three out and the average jumps to 25.9, which is more than our D.
It is amazing to me that you think you know that, and that you are speaking matter-of-factly about it.
Nobody wants to hear it, but the Giants would be better off losing, in my opinion.
I'm all in for playing spoiler on Philly if the opportunity presents itself, but this one is truly meaningless (just as the last two were)
In addition, the Ram's offense really sucks.....if we can get to Hill, he is bound to make mistakes....
On offense, you negate the Ram rush with quick passes....what is scary though, they create pressure with 4....this OL has repeatedly shown, they can't handle stunts up the middle, especially with blitzes.....if they can pressure Eli early, they may force him into some bad "decisions"....Eli has to remain cool, and not force turnovers....
This could actually be a low scoring defensive game.....but I think the Rams are in for a let down, after last week's loss.....I think they will try to take OBj out of the equation, and it will be up to the TE's and Randle/Parker to win this one.....
Giants will win.....6-9.....and unfortunately, playing against teams without winning records and beating them, will look like this team has turned the corner, when actually, it hasn't reached it yet....
You know that.
