How to Beat the Giants: Pressure Eli and Make Him Cry

We’ve all seen it: Eli Manning throws three interceptions, and leads his team to a demeaning loss. He heads over to the sidelines, separating himself from his teammates and he puts on his pouty-wouty Eli Manning crybaby face. “It’s not my fault,” you can hear his brain telling him.

That’s how you beat the New York Football Giants; you make Eli Manning cry. It’s not difficult to do. He’ll make those mistakes and the Dallas Cowboys need to capitalize on those errors. In today’s matchup against the Bucs, Eli played an error-free football game, so he is ripe for a few in Dallas.

I won’t even say that the Cowboys need to come out firing, scoring quickly. They haven’t done that but once all year. I just want them to win. I’d be lying if I said I am not nervous. It’s not easy beating a divisional foe three times in a season. Only the great teams do that.

The Dallas Cowboys are a great team. Terrell Owens is healing well. Tony Romo is out getting some ‘nookie-nookie’ by a hot blonde in Mexico, apparently bringing along tight end Jason Witten for the weekend getaway. Fine. I hope it works. I hope come Sunday these guys show America that the 13-3 season was no joke.

All week, all I will blog about is this matchup. Check here often for the breaking news, the tips, the trash-talking and the first idiot on the Giants who will guarantee a win. You know it’s coming, right?
