    Great weekend for football, except for my Jags. At least they went down swinging. You just can't make mistakes against the Pats. Garrard played well, but the defense just couldn't stop Brady. I don't see the Chargers doing it either. The 'Clots' defense didn't show up today, even with some strange officiating, which was atrocious. The injuries finally caught up to them, but not to take anything away from San Diego. They made the plays they had to without Rivers and LT, so fair play.

    The Giants and Cowboys came down to the wire, with the Giants defense stepping it up a gear in the fourth quarter. Should be a good one with the Packers next week. Hope Favre goes on and wins it now, but just can't see anyone beating the Pats.
    Did you ever notice that in every painting of Adam & Eve, they have belly buttons. Think about that...take as long as you want.

    great win for giants.

    thats 10 games won on the road and 2 in the playoffs now.they remind me of the steelers in 2005 when they won 3 playoff games on the road but giants have farve in the way next week,too hard i think.it looks to be clear cut as a Pats Packers superbowl,which would be some game.

    The Giants defence was fantastic in the fourth quarter. The secondary played tight and the defensive line completely pushed Romo out of his comfort zone and his decision making was awful. Intentional grounding when had no one near him, sacked twice when he was out of the pocket and should've thrown it away.

    Looking forward to the NFC Championship game in the Frozen Tundra, it should be closer than the other game anyway.

    Roll on FEB 3, Pat's are unstoppable again this year. I've a load of family in Boston and NewHampshire, so have followed the Pat's, The Sox, The Bruins ,and the Celts since I was a nipper and Revolution since their inception. Got to a Patriots Game at the Gillette Stadium and a Sox -v- Yankees game at Fenway when I was over there in 2000. Been Lovin' it the last few years with the Sox and the Pats starting to win things after so long in the wilderness. Hoping to Get back stateside to Join in the celebrations before they turn crap for another 30 years

    bears last year, giants this year.............the sleeping giants ( excuse the pun ) are awakening. Add to that the Packers and Cowboys doing well also.

    Looking forward to it. Giants ran the Pats close earlier this season so really looking forward to it.
    Ignore Max Power, he is no more, the future is Ron Burgundy. I'd love to be Ron Burgundy but they won't let me........

    Favre blew it against the Giants, but overall, you have to admire the way Coughlin turned the Giants around. They deserved it in the end, with their defense stepping up to the plate once again. Manning is playing well also, which surprises me, considering all the grief he suffered at the hands of the New York media early on. Their play calling has been exceptional over the last few weeks on both sides of the ball. It'll have to be notch against the Pats if they are to cause an upset. Vegas has them as 13 point underdogs so far. Hoping it's a good game in a few weeks and if they don't turn the ball over, it should be a close one.

    Are the Pats vulnerable ? They have conceded quite a lot of points - and scores - in the last few weeks.

    Their red zone D kept them in the playoffs last week. Just not sure the Giants have enough notwithstanding the week 16 game
    DB Cooper is alive !

    I'm not so sure. I think the Giants will watch the tape of Pats against the Chargers with great interest. I'm convinced a fully fit Chargers team would have beaten the that Pats team last week.

    Exactly, I think last weekend was where they should have been beaten, Brady had an off day but they never took their chances. Love to see the Giants put it up to them but I think it could be embarrising by the 3rd qtr.

    Big throw downs abound over here. Beer, Burgers, Hot Dogs and a bit of betting to boot. Just hope it's a good close game and not a blowout as some are predicting. Brady's ankle injury may be a factor if the Giants get to him early and often.
