Just win the game. Go into bye @ 4-3.

Get healthy for Eagles.
I think this is the earliest pre-game discussion thread since  
micky : 10/22/2016 8:24 pm : link
here. lol
Not sure what to think. Optimistic, but tempered at this point.  
Big Blue '56 : 10/22/2016 8:30 pm : link
Was last week's win a jumpstart or a short-lived positive blip?

No real idea..
And the Rams have beaten some good teams..  
Big Blue '56 : 10/22/2016 8:31 pm : link
Taking them lightly would be a huge mistake, imo
Isn't Jeff Fishers philosophy geared toward a Giants win?  
DennyInDenville : 10/22/2016 8:40 pm : link
I read somewhere he likes to stay at a .500 record. If he's over .500 he likes to lose a game, if he's under he likes to win the game to get to .500 and keep his name off the hot seat.

Anyways maybe it's not true
Nvm actually  
DennyInDenville : 10/22/2016 8:41 pm : link
Just noticed the Rams are 3-3

This game is wide open
As long as this is not

Todd Gurley's breakout game I think the Giants win going away! Bagels, Lox and Cream cheese with a pot of coffee will be ready to go by 8:30AM. Earliest for me ever for a Football Sunday morning in the last 25 years!
Ordered everything from Panera. Picking up at 8:20.

Really looking forward to this game...

Giants at 9:30 am, take a little nap after the game maybe, maybe rake some leaves. Then on to the 1 pm games, some Redzone, then the 4:15 games, then the SNF. What's better than an entire day watching the pro football?

Go Big Blue!

JD in NC : 10/22/2016 10:33 pm : link
Donald is going to get pressure, he is definitely going to hit Eli, I just hope he holds onto the ball. Getting sacked will happen, the Ravens game was the firs sack on Eli that wasn't also a FF that I can remember.
So who are the inactives?

OBJ  
Eman11 : 10/23/2016 12:05 am : link
Had a breakout game last week and history says he strings a few of them together so I'm looking forward to him putting on a show at Twickenham.

Let's get the win and hope the Vikes and Lions make it a great Sunday heading into the bye.
Hey GIANTS. My Birthday is on Monday. A Little Early Present WIN

Would be Nice.

EJJ : 10/23/2016 12:27 am : link
I hope the come out up tempo. Get Eli in a rhythm. The question of the day? Will Big Mac defer?
All you east coasters  
Nick in LA : 10/23/2016 2:15 am : link
Talking about it being so early. Out here on the west coast that's how it is every week lol. Now we get a 6:30a game.... luckily I work nights so I'll just be getting off work
I like this matchup.  
allstarjim : 10/23/2016 5:16 am : link
I think defensively, we match up very well with them.

I think we have the players to slow down Gurley up front. Keenum has been throwing hot lately, but with the Giants having their full complement of corners going into the game, I think opportunities will be limited for Keenum's passing targets like Britt, Quick and Austin. You have to respect Austin's speed, but DRC has what it takes to stay with him.

Shut down the run, and smother the receivers.

The Rams are without Michael Brockers and Trumaine Johnson. I expect Odell will get a ton of attention, but this could be a big game for Shepard. The Rams are getting back Robert Quinn for this game, and Aaron Donald is always going to be a problem for anyone, and I expect Gregg Williams to really bring pressure against Eli. Look for the screen game to pop off big in this one.

I think the Giants win big, 31-10... and Giants defense returns a TD. Go Giants.
On the East coast

And I'm ready to start tailgating. Kegs & Eggs for me!! Nothing like a Dogfish 90 minute to start the day off!

Oh yeah, let's go Giants!!
I have to work today...  
bouchy24 : 10/23/2016 6:20 am : link
Does anyone know if this game will be available on the NFL Mobile App? I'm assuming so, but I just want to be sure!


GO GIANTS!!
This is a solid team  
UberAlias : 10/23/2016 6:41 am : link
Defense should terrorize our Oline. Get it done get into the bye week and get healthy. That's the plan.
Let's get the W

You ever have the 120 min IPA? That stuff will punch you right in the face! In a good way!

Lets get the W today. Thats all I got.

One "Cheers" for a 9:30 am Giants game. Love it!

Second "Cheers" for giving the Giants road games at neutral sites!
We get some DB's healthier and Adams has gotten experience  
SLIM_ : 10/23/2016 7:58 am : link
time to blitz heavier than we had in other games. Pressure Keenan and don't screw up that much on offense and we win the game.
OBJ looking too good during warmups

Giants say Odell Beckham, Jr. Is officially active. Now let's see whether injury affects him. Was not a normal pregame for him.

I'm with you on the extra blitzes. Send Collins more often. He is a sure tackler and they won't miss his coverage.

Well, that's reassuring. A game in London, with a rookie coach, a never-ending set of distractions and your best player banged up.

Which, oddly enough is exactly the kind of game this frustratingly inconsistent team would win.

Wasn't there an issue with the field in London being crappy....

Bluesbreaker : 10/23/2016 8:49 am : link
It's feels like a desperation game we can't afford to
lose amplified by the fact going into the bye Week.
Hope our Defense dismantles them .

Twickenham is a rugby pitch it'll hold together better than a soccer pitch and the weather has been good. It'll probably be similar to an early season soldier field

It certainly looks decent from my seat a bit bobbly at the sidelines but it held up during the warm ups

At a hotel in Carolina for my dad's funeral. Was really looking forward to watching before heading back to NYC. But our direct
Tv doesn't have NFL network. Anyone know how to watch on a phone or at least listen?
At the game. Fun crowd (repeating post from other thread)  
Jerz44 : 10/23/2016 8:52 am : link
40% Giants fans. 50% random 80/90/00 NFL jerseys unrelated to this game. 10% Rams.

Just overheard a British let's go giants

Followed by a "f ya ya wankah!"

Fun scene.
