| East Rutherford, NJ (MySportsbook) - The New York Giants will have to do some shifting on the offensive line for Sunday's game against Houston, as center Chris Bober is suffering from a torn triceps muscle. Bober is officially listed as doubtful for Sunday's game, but is not expected to play. Jason Whittle will move over from guard to center, with Tam Hopkins taking Whittle's spot at right guard. "The biggest difference is having the ball between your legs," Whittle said. "Making the calls and things like t |

The 34-year-old had a 33.0 net average in games against Jacksonville and Minnesota. Rouen suffered a concussion against Minnesota and did not play in last week's game against Washington. Rouen has averaged only a net of 32.0 yards on 37 punts this season. Matt Allen will handle all punting and holding duties for the club. Rouen, a |

He completed 20-of-25 passes for 255 yards, as the Eagles moved to 7-3 with Sunday's win and lead the NFC East by one game over the New York Giants.

With their division lead trimmed down to just one game over the New York Giants, the Eagles must regain their mental edge against an angry Arizona squad that also suffered a crushing defeat last Sunday.

The misery continued for the Vikings in Week 10, when they registered a 27-20 loss to the New York Giants in the midst of some unfortunate quarterback problems. The latest of countless distractions in Minneapolis these days came in the form of QB Todd Bouman, who took over for benched starter Daunte Culpepper in the third quarter of last week's loss. Cu |
