Schellacking in Seattle

The Giants showed no ill effects coming off their bye week, delivering a 41-7 mashing of the Seattle Seahwaks late Sunday afternoon in Seattle. The Seahawks who came into the game injury depleted, missing starting QB Matt Hasslebeck, and two starting offensive linemen. All that aside this was a game that was mailed in from the start. Big Blue exploded out of the gates with 21 first quarter points, silencing a hostile Seattle crowd, who prides themselves on dubbing their noise as "the 12th man." The Giants cruised to their NFC leading 6th win of the season, and 5th in a row. Big Blue excelled in all aspects of the game, from special teams, defense, and offense , the Giants are now showing that they are a force to be reckoned with coming down the stretch of the season. Seattle on the other hand may need to go back to the drawing board, more importantly the trainers room, after taking a thorough beating by Eli Manning and Co. Next week the G-Men take their talents back home to face their division rivals the Dallas Cowboys, who find themselves at 1-6 and at the bottom of the barrel in the NFC East. It certainly seems like a good time for the Giants to pour a little more salt in that Texas sized Cowboys wound, and drop the hammer on a disgraceful season, orchestrated by head coach Wade Phillips. Other game notes from Sunday include the continuous blistering hot play of Eli Manning and Hakeen Nicks, Manning who now leads the NFC in passing TD's looks to be headed to his second straight pro bowl. More importantly 22 year old Hakeem Nicks now has 9 TD grabs on the year ranking him first in the league. With 8 games left to play it should be fun to watch the maturation as well as the numbers pile up for these two superstars.
