Giants vs. Vikings analysis
In Minnesota, they worry about Tiki Barber, Amani Toomer, and Ike Hilliard. Toomer and Hilliard are labeled "Viking-killers". However Kevin Seifert predicts a 24-17 Vikings win. He notes that the Giants haven't been able to stop the run (although that really applies to the last two games against the Cowboys and the Lions - and the first game against Philadelphia).
Vikings fans must be liking their offensive line against the Giants defensive line. Still if we stopped Green behind an excellent Packers line, we have a chance to do something in Minnesota. We also have a chance to get pushed around worse than we did against Detroit.
Giants fans, are worried. Eric from BBI expects fans to be clamoring for Eli by 4:00 Sunday. He notes that the Vikings corners match up well against Toomer and Hilliard and notes that Toomer and Hilliard have not been playing well lately.
There are tons of Randy Moss articles floating around. One from Neil Best has some interesting quotes from Gibril Wilson and the Wills. I worry that the Giants will continue to yield in the red zone (I'm talking about defense here though the offense seems to sputter too) because with Moss at 6'4" and Marcus Washington at 6'3", Culpepper has plenty of big targets.
