Giants' Pass/Fail Test

ESPN.com

Jim Fassel
Jim Fassel backed off from another guarantee.
If Randy Moss and Cris Carter can scorch the Giants' defensive secondary for four touchdowns -- as in last Monday night's 28-16 loss to the Vikings -- then what will future Hall of Famers Tim Brown and Jerry Rice do to the G-Men this Sunday when the Raiders visit the Meadowlands? Jim Fassel hopes not much. To start a run of five wins in their final six games and fulfill Fassel's playoff wish, the Giants must get a push up the middle to disrupt the Oakland passing game and get in Rich Gannon's face, according to ESPN's Ron Jaworski.
