Giants a better passing team without Plax
tom.rock@newsday.comIt's not a coincidence. Except for one series, Plaxico Burress has not been on the field for the Giants the past two weeks, and in those games, the passing yardage has spiked.

Eli league's best player
Eli Manning shouldn't need these last four regular-season games to be a frontrunner for the NFL Most Valuable Player award. But if the 11-1 Giants run the table, engrave the trophy. Just give it to Eli already.

Stover doesn't mind a little backup
Little has changed for Matt Stover. Despite the Ravens' plan to have Steve Hauschka attempt field goals outside of Stover's range and handle kickoffs, Stover is still the team's primary kicker for field goals. It's a situation the 19-year veteran is...Tags: Philadelphia Eagles, Miami Dolphins, Veterans Affairs, Randy Thomas, Defense

Ravens' defense shows toughness on home turf
It's common knowledge in the NFL that the Ravens have had one of the most dominating run defenses over the past decade. But what goes unnoticed is that their run defense is even more stout at home.

The great divide
It would have been so easy, really. I was 7 years old, and my city's pro football team had played wretchedly for my entire sentient existence.

Zorn irked by outbursts
Not only did Jim Zorn whine, he swore. For an NFL coach to admit that he was whining? That's a rarity. For Zorn to swear, that's even rarer. The over-burst of emotion by the Washington Redskins rookie coach on the sideline during Sunday's 23-7 loss...Tags: Football, Baltimore Ravens, Marcus Washington, New York Giants, National Football League
