Setting the Bucs-Giants table

I'll be back at 1PM for a Bucs-Giants liveblog. In the meantime, here are a few reasons why this game is so intriguing.

Coaching Pressure - Everyone knows Tom Coughlin is under the gun after bowing out in the Wild Card round the last two seasons. But Jon Gruden isn't far removed from the hot seat either. A playoff appearance secured his future in Tampa for now, but he still hasn't won a game since their Super Bowl title - a team that Tony Dungy built.

Graham vs. Jacobs - Graham was the better fantasy back this season, beating all odds. Jacobs, however, has a better chance for a big game Sunday against Tampa's lightweight front seven.

Eli vs. Monte - Eli Manning, in the playoffs, against the Dean of defensive coordinators in the NFL, Monte Kiffin. Sounds like a mismatch. Kiffin's defenses require a lot of patience and long drives to beat them. Eli likes throwing it up deep to Plaxico Burress. If Eli can topple this Bucs pass defense, it will be the signature moment of his career.

Galloway's time - There is a compelling argument that Joey Galloway is the most underrated player of his generation. He has played with an amazingly terrible collection of quarterbacks on bad offenses, and still produces. Galloway is having one of the most productive mid-thirties runs in NFL history. Against a banged-up Giants secondary, this could be the last time for him to shine on a big stage.

See you back here at 1PM
