Nah, I'd rather another chance at them in the Superbowl, and hopefully, on that day, we will not choke the game away in the last few minutes...
At the moment, I have little retort towards Giants fans' taunts as they've owned us as of late.

I believe Kraft said the league is making the first 3 and last 3 all division games. Not sure if it's this season. I welcome it though.
I think SF @ NE and DEN @ NE would be great choices for Sunday Night.
Playing Denver early would be a strategic advantage to us as Manning is going to be rusty coming off that year.
I haven't heard such a thing, and I find it very hard to believe. Having the final week be all division rivalries is fine, but to get all 6 division games out of the way in such a short time span is ridiculous. Most great rivalries are division rivalries, and division rivalries are the only ones we can count on seeing year after year. Essentially the league would have too many great matchups in those 6 weeks and too few the 11 weeks in the middle.I believe Kraft said the league is making the first 3 and last 3 all division games.

1. Not a lock, but anticipating division games to open and close season. "I think what you saw happen last year, it kept the interest. I think there is a drive to … there will be certain games that are opening games, but I think what you see is we’re trying to have every division, people play their first couple of games in their division and their last couple of games in the division, and that way we keep the rivalries and keep it as competitive as we can keep it that way.”
I appreciate seeing the soundbite, especially since it was something I hadn't heard before.Because I love you so much, Wolfpack, I managed to find the post where Kraft said that he would back this up. He said a couple, which probably means 2. So maybe 2 at the start, 2 in the middle and 2 at the end. Sounds good to me.
