Re: Plaxico predicts "23 - 17" Giants win
I think it's completely reasonable for him to expect his defense to hold the highest scoring offense of all time to their season-low in points, in favorable conditions, when they just hung 38 on that same defense a month ago. After all, 17 is only slightly less than half what the Pats scored last time, I don't see why that's unreasonable.
In all seriousness, it does tick me off a little from a player. It's not as brazen, but it's really no different than Anthony Smith's guarantee, and that got people around here into quite a lather. These guys should of course think they're going to win, but leave the predictions to the mediots and do your talking on the field, that's what I say. I would bet anyone $100 you wouldn't find one guy on the bottom of the Pats depth chart who would say "yeah, we see us winning 34-20".
