How big is the Chargers game? So big Pierce called it the team’s “Super Bowl” during his WFAN interview. Tuck concurred. “The last thing we want is to go into the bye week being 5-4 with another loss,” Tuck said, “and having two weeks to think about that one.” ... The return of either DT Chris Canty (calf) or LB Michael Boley (knee) — or both — would help the defense tremendously. Both are scheduled to practice tomorrow and could return on Sunday, particularly since this defense badly needs both. Coughlin said WRs Domenik Hixon (hip) and Sinorice Moss (foot) are “both sore,” but he won’t know until tomorrow whether they will be able to practice. ... TE Kevin Boss said his right ankle is “tender” after reinjuring it on Sunday, but said it’s nowhere near as bad as it was after initially hurting it against the Chiefs. Boss, who sat out the next game against the Raiders, appears to be in line to play Sunday. ... QB Eli Manning isn’t panicking. Again. “Fans can get in panic mode and that’s all right,” he said. “We can’t have the players get in panic mode, and that is the most important thing.”
