Takin' a breather from all this political stuff

We’re trying to sneak this one in here before kickoff….

Defending Super Bowl champs, New York Giants open up at home as 4 pt. favorites to the Washington Redskins. We not only like the Skins to cover, we like them to win outright. Despite their obvious success last year, the Giants are only 6-10 at home the past two seasons. The Giants will also need to find adequate replacements for 7 defensive starters, including retired Michael Strahan and Osi Umenyiora (injured, out for season) both of whom were critical in providing the upfield pass rush at defensive end that was key to the Giants’ success. This isn't going to happen overnight, let alone, the first game of the season.

‘Skins QB, Jason Campbell, is reunited with Offensive Coordinator, Al Borges. Campbell enjoyed his most productive season in college at Auburn when Borges came onboard as Auburn’s O-Con in Campbell’s senior year. Throw-in a steady diet of Clinton Portis at running back and we think the ‘Skins have a great opportunity to steal one from the Giants who may be admiring their Super Bowl rings a bit too much.
