snow or rain wont help our passing game either. So they can stack 8 in the box on us easily, but i hope Jake plays like he did vs Denver and not det/oak game.

I think the passing game is much more important to the Giants. Sure we would have less effective passing. However, the Giants have big play ability that has burned our secondary for the past 4 games. I have much more confidence in our run defense than our pass defense.

hmmmm i would say our passing game is more important for 1 reason: the real steve smith needs the ball. if its a crap shoot throwing it takes out our best threat, and lets a good giants team focus on stopping 1 element, the run, and who really trust their cbs? i mean i dont always trust lucus, marshall, and gamble, but i would take them over corey webster, sam madison, and aaron ross. plus i like our WRs more when they dont have plex.

Really?

I feel just the opposite. The Giants are second in the league in rushing, but only about 20 or so passing the ball. I definitely prefer them trying to beat us with Manning's arm than with Jacobs. And their best receiver shot himself.

Our run defense has been in the bottom half of the league all year, where as our pass defense has only looked bad in the last few games (And actually, it looked pretty good against Denver). And if Kemo does miss the game due to injury, its going to be that much harder to stop their running game.

I agree that the pass defense looked much better against Denver. They really seemed to come together. I think that we have the best chance with a balanced attack against the Giants. I am just concerned with our secondary getting blasted. IMO I think we would be better stopping their running game than their passing game. However, without Plax they looked pretty flat against the cowgirls. If they play us like that its game for us.

    • It is a tough decision.  There is another factor.  Is he in game shape?  A tired Hunt is not better than an "in-shape" Corbett.  When coming off an injury, it is natural to want to protect the injured area, even if it is completely healed.  This can cause you to contort your body for no reason, lose fundamentals, and it could lead to other injuries.  For example, I had a knee in high school that required getting taped.  That made me aware of the knee (not used to tape on my knee) and I pulled my groin (favoring or dragging the leg with the tape).  The trainer explained the groin injury the way I do here--but scared money makes no money.  If he is cleared to play, he is cleared to play.  Watch him, rotate him in for a series, etc.  Specifically, I would want to watch the matchup--who is winning more--Corbett or Hunt?  How is the defense reacting (if at all) to Hunt being in?  Etc.  
    • Shannon was sued for $50 million (settled out of court, I believe) for forcing sex on his girlfriend during a two-year relationship.  He denies it, but ESPN let him go last April.  Chad Johnson's wife filed a police report because he head-butted her in a car and was put on probation. I had to google it.  I watched the Ray Rice video and when you see it, you realize just how vile and cowardly abusing a woman really is.  But for the same point Aussie tried to make, these women are defenseless, and being phyiscally bigger and stronger does not validate your actions.   I can't even stand to watch Steve Smith.  I can't normalize this kind of behavior--again, I do not think R-P had that in mind when he posted this.  When the reason was exposed, we should realize that we are talking life (quality of) and death (in some cases) here.  
    • I can respect the fact that we should not glorify or normalize men who have a history of beating women.  I do not think anyone was thinking of that when they posted this, but if head-butting your wife and unconsensual sex (rape) is something you cannot overlook, I agree with that.  I think they are both half-crazed attention hounds regardless of their pasts.
