Does Peterson have to start, so far back? I mean if we could get him just a few yards closer he'd probably be busting loose.

Helps to have a brain dead QB on the other side. Manning has been terrible tonight. 6/15 for 81 yds and 3 INTs

You don't change what one of the best RBs has been doing all his career. There is a reason he starts back there.

I think AD starting so far back behind the QB is a mistake with this line

True, but our D-line is owning this game.

And yet the haters will still whine, "But you still haven't beaten anybody!" However, this is a Giants team that's better than their record indicates. Like Al and Cris said, if the games ended at the 2 minute warning, these guys would be 10-4.

I understand fully why it's done, but we don't have the Offensive Line like we used to.
