New York Giants
Much of the Giants is new in 2004. They have a new head coach in Tom Coughlin, who has brought in new coordinators. Most of the questions are on offense, and the man who holds the answers is John Hufnagel, the offensive coordinator previously with New England. His job will involve the development of No. 1 overall pick Eli Manning. If he succeeds, they will probably be good at the end of the season. No one is sure if Kurt Warner has anything left. There are also issues surrounding Jeremy Shockey's foot and how much time he will miss. That needs to be addressed. One guy to watch out for is running back Ron Dayne, who is in the best shape of his life. Coughlin loves to pound the ball, so it will be interesting to see how he uses Dayne.

I hope your right in asuming Dayne will contribute this year.
I for one can't understand why they ever drafted him.
Jamal Lewis was still available... and imagine him in the backfield with Tiki.

Lewis wasnt available. He was gone with the 5° pick and Dayne was the 11°. Shaun Alexander was available till the 23° round

Well I for one think Dayne is done and a bust. But I'm glad T.C. is giving him a second chance and I'll root for his success as long as he's wearing Giants blue.

I like the move to sign Mack because if Dayne doesn't pan out at least we have another option at the goalline.

Mack went to Temple U so he's always welcomed with me.
