As wise cappers before me have stated (forgive me, but I don't know who should be credited for stating this line first)

"I'd rather eat chalk than eat sh**"

Until I'm proven otherwise - Giants are still the defending champs, while the Bucs are still the Bucs. Extra time off, plus starting their season 0-1 to their bitter rivals, at home, after the whole "pomp and circumstance" before the game???

I'm thinking Eli has a career-making type day, and unfortunately for the Bucs, their on the receiving end.

Giants -9 (but I would rethink it if it's 10.5 or more by gametime

  I agree with Quad above, after losing at home to Dallas, this game is going to get UGLY for  the Bucs real quickly! 11 days is a long time to get things right.

N Y GIANTS  - 9

Over 44

GIANTS WIN, but fail to cover

New York - 21                            Tampa Bay - 17

Buccaneers +7                            under 44

Coughlin wins games he's supposed to lose, and loses games he's supposed to win. This is one of those games he just might lose. See last years Redskin games.
