Re: Big Start For Plaxico Burress
Yeah, he looked unstoppable in the 1st half, and WAS Def is supposed to be solid... but Shawn Springs was out.
I missed some of the 2nd half but Eli didn't look that sharp...
I was basically right on my read of the game, in that the Giants would come out and play well, showing that the season is not over just because they lost 2 starting DEs... they still have a good Defense and good OL and DL...
However, People might overrate Eli due to his great end of the season run last year. Especially for fantasy , I would not want him as my starter, a plug in backup maybe...
Jacobs looked solid too..

His fine was reduced, but Burress will remain suspended for Week 5.
Burress' fine was cut from $235,294.12 to $117,647.06, but he accepted the one-game ban. Of more long-term concern is Charley Casserly's report that Plax may face NFL discipline for his involvement in two summer domestic disputes. Domenik Hixon will draw the start Sunday against Seattle across from Amani Toomer. Steve Smith will remain the Giants' slot receiver.
