November 24, 2006 Tiki Barber publicly complained about the Giants game plan in Monday at Jacksonville, something that apparently didn't sit well with head coach Tom Coughlin, Newsday reports. The day after that game, Coughlin read out the fine schedule for conduct detrimental to the team in front of his players, a reminder that speaking out against the coaching staff could result in financial punishment. Barber had just 10 carries for 27 yards in the Monday loss; look for him to get a lot more work Sunday at Tennessee. |

November 17, 2006 Tiki Barber practiced cautiously with a cast on his injured right thumb Thursday, but insisted he will be able to play in Jacksonville Monday night, the New York Daily News reports. "We had two days off and I'm not worried about it," Barber said. "I played most of the game (with it) against the Bears, so it's not something that's entered my consciousness. It feels OK. I have a ridiculous pain tolerance and I'm not taking any medication for it." Keep in mind Barber isn't even listed on the injury report, an encouraging sign. |
