ENEMY LINES
WHAT A RIVAL COACH SAYS

"Even without Plaxico Burress, Eli Manning [below] will still throw touchdowns. But he'll have to trust some receiver when he's blitzed, and I don't know who that will be.... There's nobody who can tackle Brandon Jacobs. He's bigger than any linebacker. He's going to be as productive as ever.... Ahmad Bradshaw is pedestrian, and based on what they've done in the past, their third back—whether it's Danny Ware or Andre Brown—will only play when they're ahead. I don't know how viable that guy is going to be.... Steve Smith is the best receiver now; he's going to score. They got to a point last season where the plays were designed for him.... Domenik Hixon has some vertical speed, but he's not a starter for fantasy owners.... They have designed a nice little red zone package for Kevin Boss. If you're a fantasy guy, that's a guy you want. Eli trusts him."
