NFC East Conference - New York Giants PreviewThe New York Giants improved to 11-5 last season while winning the division in their second season with Eli Manning under center. However we still have our doubts that this team was as good as its record, and with the improvement of Dallas this year and with Washington having a great defense, we see the Giants falling to third in 2006. Yes Manning improved over his rookie season, but he still did not look as polished as he need to be to consistently win in the NFL, and he was downright horrific in the home playoff loss to Carolina. His interceptions were still rather high at 17, and we want to see some more improvement before crowning him as the savior of this franchise as other people have. Also remember that running back Tiki Barber had a year from the gods last season, and we just do not see him coming close to those MVP-type numbers this year. Manning does have a nice target in Plaxico Burress, who helped his passing numbers last year with some acrobatic catches, but we are not crazy about the rest of the wide receivers. Tight end Jeremy Shockey is one of the best in the game, but he may be injury-plagued after missing time each of the last two seasons. Finally the Giants could still use some help on the offensive line.Check out BOVADA and start winning NOW!

However the secondary was exposed quite a bit in 2005 when opposing quarterbacks were able to buy some time, and the Giants added no real help in that area. Now do not get us wrong, this is still a good football team. However we feel that the New York Giants were rather lucky last season, and we see a more realistic third place finish this year.
