    Given that they pretty much dominated the Redskins in their head to head matchup I gotta go with the Giants.

    they kicked the skins ass, but c'mon now, if 16-7 is domination, what do you call the 44-6 score they dropped on the hawks?


    Giants have to get the nod, cuz all you can do is win the games in front of you and they've done that.

    It's how you finish and December will show which teams are the real contenders!

    Here's to healthy teams for the whole NFC Beast.

    It should be noted that was a Giants home game and it was the first game of the Zorn era. The light bulb didn't seem to go on for Campbell & the offense until the second half of the New Orleans game in week 2.

    As I said, in terms of who *looks* better - it's the Giants.

    But 4-1 with road wins over Dallas & Philly with the only loss being on the road to the Super Bowl Champs is a better start than even the Giants so far - because the Giants are exhausting the easy portion of their scheduled.

    If you offered them a split in the road games that the Skins have swept, I'd think they'd take that and wouldn't look back.

    **None of this is to take anything away from the G-Men. It's just that the opportunities for Redskin fans to be excited at this point in the season have been few and far between since the Gibbs I Reign.

    I give the skins props. They've been very good. However, I don't think the Giants would be happy to take a split of intra-division road games. I think they're looking to win every game they play. They look unbeatable right now.

    I don't know about unbeatable. They may have looked that way against the Rams and Seahawks...but it's the Rams and Seahawks. The hapless Bengals took them to OT - and probably should have won that game in regulation (I realize not many people saw that game). And as bad as the Redskins looked in that opener - they basically played the Giants even after those first two drives.

    I'd feel really safe about making a bet that at least one of Dallas or Philly beat the G-Men at home.

    Not to dispute that the Giants are best team in the league right now. Only saying that even the best team in the league would take 2-1 on the road in this division and run away giggling.

    I love Zorn's coaching!


    I love the way he runs the offense. He got rid of the all of the presnap motion offense and is just going with speed. Those 3rd and 4th down calls in last 2 + mins was money. Gibbs might have ran the ball on 3rd and then punted on 4th, and left the game up to his defense.

    Last year, the Redskins kept losing in last few mins, this year Zorn is dominating the 4th quarters with calls that try to win games, rather than not lose games.


    tlong, I love your ex guy!

    vegas is counting on you smelling the letdown.

    i'll go opposite. letdown is next week vs the browns who will look bad against the giants on monday night football, but beat the skins.

    rams look bad vs skins but then beat the cowboys...


    anyhow...spreads are fixed...that is all...go skins!

    I'm saying they're going to take care of business - this isn't the Norv era anymore (where all big wins are promptly followed by equally big losses).

    I am not saying they will lose, I am saying that they do not cover the spread, and since every one of their games has been close this year, it is not really a stretch.
