Last year during the regular season it looked like the New York Giants were poised to make another big run to the Super Bowl, and maybe even defend their title. However, when the playoffs came around the team sputtered and just did not have what it took. They had the best running game in the league but were undone by a lack of depth at the receiver position, and were distracted by the loss of Plaxico Burress thanks to legal issues.

This year the problems at the receiver position have not be solved and there are also questions at the running back position, but there is still a lot of confidence surrounding the team. Eli Manning signed a new contract that made him the highest paid QB in the league and he is looking to prove he deserves it all.

This 2009 season will be all about moving beyond the Burress fiasco, moving on from the Michael Strahan era and the development of emerging players. Justin Tuck should help improve the defence and the wide receiver position will all about getting the job done by committee with a number of unproven but talented players.

It remains to be seen how the 2009 New York Giants live season will play out. It could be a big year, or the team could sputter into irrelevance. Not much separates first place and last place in the competitive NFC East, and the Giants will need to come out flying right away to have an impact on the season.
