    Over blown or not they are in the record book as interceptions by Eli Manning. Plus dude had over 20 interceptions last season. Therefore, I hope he continues his bad play, bad luck or whatever anybody wants to call it and he throw at least 2 this Sunday.

    Lets Go Texans!

    True, he may have had some misfortune this year but last year he had 18 TD and 27INT. He just throws a lot of INT when he's on the run out of the pocket (kind of like Schaub). He hasn't had a good statistical year since 2012 in reality.

    ^^ That being said I don't expect a blow out. I was thinking Houston 27-17 or Houston 21- 17

    He had no offensive line or running game. That tends to hurt a quarterback a lot you know. Some quarterbacks are still great without a good O-line (Andrew Luck) while others are bad without it. And having no run game just hurts.

    oh yea I forgot last year was the year David Wilson got injured the first game and all the other tools they had at RB sucked. Makes sense.. well he still sucks under pressure and throw a lot of interceptions that way. He reminds me of Schaub when he panicked or Romo when he tries to force something.

    so far offensively we haven't had to make any adjustments

    it will be interesting to see what BoB does if/when a team is able to stop our run game

    A few of Eli's many interceptions last year were his receivers' fault. It still doesn't excuse their offense as a whole. His receivers remain unreliable, and they're not adjusted to Mcadoo's system yet.

    I'd put the over under for Manning faces at 4.

    Heavy money from Vegas insiders starting to go the Giants way.

    Overall though, 60% of the money still on Houston...problem is that the trend is shifting. Not sure why.

    Eli Manning is 30-19 against the spread as an underdog over the last 7 years.

    I think Texans win, but based on Vegas numbers, it's looking like a close game. Watt will be the difference maker bc he will disrupt their whole offense. We just need the offense to play mistake free.

    I think gsme will be closer than we think. maybe 23-17. this offense is not constructed to put up a lot of points on the board (at least what we've seen so far) I think 2-3 TD and 3 FG a game is max. now the defense that's a different story. if the defense can score a TD tomorrow or get a turnover to improve the offensive field position then the probability goes higjer for a greater final point differential

    Giants will probably win. Home field matters in the NFL and it's not like the Texans are this juggernaut destroying the league.

    We will see a more balanced attack Texans. Wins 23 to 14.

    Andre Johnson gets his 1st TD.

    Fitzpatrick throws his 1st Interception.

    Not good. Expect Fitzpatrick to throw at least 2 picks.
