The really Official Patriots vs Giants Preseason Game Thread

Please post your comments, knee jerk reactions, insightful observations regarding tonight's 4th and last pre-season game vs the NY Giants, on this thread. Please do not start other threads concerning tonight's game as they will be merged or deleted.

Game time is 7:30 and live TV will be on the Patriots TV network with stations in the NE states and HI. it will be shown taped on the NFLN, at various times.

This is the game that the starters probably won't play very much if at all, and couple of roster spots are still up for grabs.

Let's hope for a good game, with no injuries, and a Patriots victory.

Looking forward to seeing Stork in action.

Rematch of Fluke Bowl 42 and 46

time for jimmy g and jake b to show what they're made of

Worthy, Wright, and the young lineman are all of great interest at the moment.

Garoppolo passing yards: 250

Over or under?

Over. The Giants aren't very good.

Interesting that Thompkins is playing and looks like LaFell has the night off.

I'm going under--with a focus on running the ball a bit more than some expect.

I expect one of the RB's to be hyped into the stratosphere after this game tonight. Maybe Gray.

This thread's already at 9 posts. We may have to break it up.

How much does Mallett play tonite? Does he get the whole second half? The last quarter? Does he come and go throughout the game? Does he play at all? Interesting to watch for, although I'm not sure at all what anything would mean, unfortunately.

The rumor is that JAG is playing the entire game tonight.

I'm not sure about that supa. For obvious reasons, Wright and Dobson need a ton of balls thrown their way tonight.

Not just that, but how well he plays tonight will determine if Connolly stays with the team.

Really wanna watch 60 minutes of Patriots football! Come on, clock!

This thread is so official it needs a whistle.
