I posted it yesterday, but it's worth repeating............that schedule for the Giants is a killer!!
IMO, you stop smack talk by winning. Or back it up. If they won the Super Bowl this year some fans would say 'yeah well we've won x number of SBs, so shut up'. It's just fans being fans.
That being said, the harshest of the smack talk being quoted is from an unnamed Lion, and it doesn't really say anything most of us would disagree with, so what's the big deal?
Chris Houston put it more simply and matter of fact, and was even confirmed by John Fox himself:

I'm not getting too hopeful for my resurgent Chiefs... tonight vs Chargers then
Miami
Denver
@ New England
Pittsburgh
@ Chicago
@ New York (Jets)
Green Bay
Oakland
@ Denver
Not the murderers row the Giants are facing... but we could lose all but 2-3 of those... I'd pencil us into a mediocre 12th pick or so in the draft. 8-8 (win 5 of those) would be a pretty optimistic view. Potentially HUGE impact on playoff teams if they can upset any though, and beating teams like the Patriots and Jets could improve possible wildcard chances.
Won plenty just not in the modern era...
By the end of the year, if Tebow is truly in over his head and the Lions make it to the play offs- Which is a big if cause I have been tempering my expectations of the
Lions for many years then it will be all good. LOL
So Tebow had a brutal day yesterday. He missed a lot of throws, he just does not look comfortable in this offense at all. I dont know if he just has no faith in his receivers or if he expects them to be better then they are but hes not throwing the ball where they need him to. I think for one hes having trouble adjust to the non-spread style offense, and 2 he is certainly used to having guys like aaron and percy and rainy and demps to give the ball to. A big lack of communication between the QB and the guys going for the ball. They receivers are expecting the ball one way, Tebow seems to be expecting them to run another, or to even be faster then they are.
Couple of bad throws but there were a lot more dropped passes that a NFL receiver should of caught. He was over throwing on the long ball all day, which is unusual for him as FLA was known for there big long plays with him as a QB. Its his short (in hte middle) throws he usually has trouble with. So very odd to watch how out of sync they were.
We also cant blame the denver defense for giving up 45 points. They played 80% of the game time. They were tired and worn down, its hard to play defense when your offense has some many 3 and outs. Never get a chance to breathe.

Fox sounds like he's getting ready to pull the plug on tebow. Merrill hoge mentioned today There's no need to see more of Tim.but Merrill is an ass.I can't stand the guy.pos. I say leave him for at least another game.honestly what else is Denver going to do?
There's little reason he shouldn't feel comfortable, Denver ran 50 plays out of shotgun yesterday.
Congrats Salsa, after being non-committal last night Fox said Tebow is starting @ Oakland next week. I have a feeling Brady Quinn won't be inactive.
I was a little shocked how the ESPN's NFL crew kissed Parcell's a$$ on how the Dolphins mess is not Parcell's fault.
Amazing...
Amazing...
This just means that the tebow thing will be week to week for now on.talk about adding to the pressure.
