What a game!!

For a top notch QB, Favre just couldn't get the job done..........and he had more than enough opportunities.........courtesy of the Giants.

On the flip side, Manning played the best game of his life!!

Yup, I was rooting for the Pack, but Favre just didn't have it tonite- and Eli did. We'll see how they do against the Pats.

I gotta agree. But maybe the Giants will review a coupla games the Eagles played against the Pats and take notes.

All the notes in the world won't make up for a weak pass defense. A good QB will kill the Giants.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but didn't the Giants give the Pats' a run for their money in Week 17???

And while we're talking about New England, they didn't look so super yesterday. The Giants "D" is gonna' be on Brady like he's never seen before. It should be quite a contest. Giants 31 - Patriots 28.

Hmm...the same guys that were on him in Week 17.

You are correct. The Giants played very well in that game, yet lost at home. Will the result be different next time? Stay tuned.

A key to the Giants turnaround imo occured when they fired the old offensive coordinator in 2006 and brought in Kevin Gilbride. They play much better, with essentially the same team as last year except the Tiki/Jacobs switch.
The big difference between the teams imo is that NE has game breakers at all the skill positions. The Giants have Burriss and Jacobs.

New England 34; NY 24

Sorry, I don't see NE scoring less than 30 or NY more than 30.

Yup. I was concerned about the Giants D and it was the O that gave the Pats fits. Yesterday was by far the worst playoff game Brady has played thus far. He generally follows those games up with far stronger ones. 1 reception for Moss and 3 picks by Brady and they still won by 9.

It should be interesting to see what kind of scheme Belichick comes up with for Eli.

It does feel eerily like the Pats SB matchup against the then juggernaut Rams. The big difference is that the Pats of now are able to get as physical as they need to. If you don't give them high flying "finesse" then they'll go to road-grader and short pass underneath mode.

14 pts. is a ridiculous spread. Which is kind of surprising given the fact the the Pats haven't beat the spread in a month and a half. 3 pts. seems to be the Pats favorite margin of victory in the SB, but I'm thinking it'll be by 6. Pats 31-Giants 25. Yes, 3 Hynes FG's.

I like the Pats chances on neutral/home leaning field, in a wind-free dome and in warm weather.

You are being WAY too humble Swamp - no way, IMHO that the Giants stay that close. I simply refuse to believe Eli can continue to play at this level.....and week 17 results (and the Giants staying close) mean nothing now.

Cmon, Tom Coughlin vs. a prepared Belichick?

I'm admittedly a Gmen hater though, so there you go.
