Monday Night Football

     In a week where the Lions and Bills both soar to 2-0 records, we have an interesting little game between the Giants and the Rams. Both teams are facing what could be a 0-2 hole early in the season. For the Rams, it seems that the injury bug has caught up with them early and it could cost them greatly. On the other hand you have the Giants. A once glorious Super Bowl team that has now fallen off the face of the Earth.
     Naturally in football, the first thing we look at is the Quarterback. Both in this case have a lot to prove. Sam Bradford is still trying to show that he is a Quarterback of the future. He needs to do better than a near playoff birth in the worst division in football. Eli Manning still needs to prove that he is an elite Quarterback. Sure, he has a ring, but just because of that would you put him in front of Dan Marino? Of course not. Though this game doesn't really appeal at first, I still plays a key role in the development of these two teams this season and their Quarterbacks.
      Tonight I expect a hard fought game. Neither offense will be too spectacular, but the Giant's offense will out shine the Ram's. Without Steven Jackson, the Ram's offense will have to ride on Bradford's hurt arm. This gives the Giant's defense all it needs to make plenty of stops and allowing them to cruse to the 28-10 win.

So that's a wrap folks! NFL Division predictions will be on their way soon! Thanks for reading!
