All 14 of today's NFL games will have a moment of silence before the national anthem in recognition of the 26 victims who were killed in Friday's school shooting at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newton, Connecticut. The Giants helmets each have the initials S.H.E.S. inscribed on them for today's game. You can help the families affected by this horrific tragedy by donating to the Sandy Hook School Support Fund.

Am I the only one who thinks the Texans and Falcons are OVERRATED? Their records don't tell the real story.

LOL the giants are not going to go in the dome and beat the falcons. That's like saying cousins will carry the redskins to a win

by _ekb via twitter 12/16/2012 5:57:37 PM
Time for the moment of silence at the Georgia Dome. The anthem will follow, and the game will get underway shortly.
