Are the Giants really pushovers?

I hear alot of folks talking about how the Giants are pathetic, how we will sweep them, and how they will be at the bottom of the NFC East again next year.
I'm not convinced that they are such pushovers.
They do have a lot of talent in Strahan, Shockey, etc. Thier weakest unit is the O-line. If they manage to draft Gallery that will help to fix that problem. A few more picks on the O-line and they will be in good shape for the next few years.
I mean last year they were barely worse than us. This year they have a new coach just like us and a higher pick than us. Not to mention they have all of their picks in this draft. Also, what happens if they don't get Gallery or Manning and decide to take Taylor just to screw with us. I doubt that they would do this seeing as how they are pretty solid at Safety, but I do have nightmares......
I'm not saying that they will go to the superbowl or anything, but I'm not so quick to write them off as easy wins.

They are not pushovers. Strahan is enough. We have noone even close to him. By God, Warren Sapp can't even hold a candle to him.
Woohoo! My 100th post! I need to get a life.

I haven't heard that?? I think the Giants will be fine I thought they should've won the east last year with the talent they had. Coughlin will have them much improved this year!!

I would not go as far as saying pushover but I feel that they are the worst team in the NFC East! There offense when it is clicking is pretty good but it hardly ever clicks! It seems like Kerry Collins only shows up when he plays the Vikings! Tiki Barber fumbles too much and there Defense is nowhere near as good as it used to be!

...The Cardinals aren't an easy team. And they always had their best game against the 'Skins, it seems.
Also, the last time a team took them as easy, they were booted out of the Playoffs by a so-called "easy team".

I think the Giants were badly coached last year, or, at a minimum, the team did not respond. They have enough solid players. Two tough games.
Maybe coaching matters more than ever with free-agency. If a coach can grab the attention of his players, can make them his players, and make them into a team, then the team will go deep into the playoffs.

i would say every team in this division is going to be hard to beat,no easy wins here either.this will indeed be a very hard division to win in again.to say the giants will be easy to beat next year i would say not so fast my friends.every win we can get is a great win.
