Tough loss today, very tough loss. I was very disappointed with the lack of pressure on Rodgers and the failure to contain him in the pocket, but otherwise they played well. Very good all around on offense and if they play as well as they did today in the remaining 4 games, 4 wins is very possible and that would give them the Division. Of course with Dallas losing today, the big game is next week in Dallas. If the Giants can win in Dallas, they actually move into the Division lead with the tiebreaker, and things will be looking much better.

moral victories arent good enough you win or you lose bottom line the lack of a pass rush is a joke, thats the problem they play well at times but the end result is winning or losing.

Some very tough calls in which NONE went their way today. The int was the difference but Eli was good overall. That's a very good 6-6 team and to be honest the Boys just aren't that good - 2 from them and we're okay and it's very possible if healthy.

The season is on the line next week ... and let's face it, some careers are as well. Another season of missing the playoffs could spell the end for a number of Giant personnel.

We got SCREWED today.

That bs call on 3rd down after the sack was just dreadful
 
Anyone else notice how ironic it is that the Giants lost by the same score today 38-35 as they did in that Patriots game from 2007...

That one and the one on the rookie CB from Nebraska (can't spell his name) was awful. Another on the Jennings possession TD - sorry you cannot possess with one hand for 1/2 a second, no way no how!!

One that cannot be overturned because there is not solid proof was the Driver TD......he never got his right foot down, watch it again his foot was above the turf riding his left foot and he knew he didn't get it down as he kept reaching for the turf all the way while falling OOB's......http://www.nfl.com/videos/new-york-giants/09000d5d824c09b0/Gameday-Packers-vs-Giants-highlights................

Hey calls happen but so many "key" calls on 3rd down to a team like the Packers is beyond trouble. Get them off the field when they deserve to be or else they're scoring........tough one to swallow!!

The thing with the Driver touchdown is it wasn't even a matter of him getting his two feet in, which I believe he did. There were other two questionable things that happened on that play:
1) He clearly pushed off to create space in the back of the end zone
2) He may have stepped out of bounds on that push off ... but for some reason they never showed a replay of that.

Bogus.

Amazing the end lines aren't covered in the end zone for all angles considering scoring is the only time even the refs can look without the flag from the coaches. They did not have a look at the back of the endzone where it looked like Driver was very close to say the least. You may be right on the 2 feet but why was he still reaching for the turf while going out - look closely his right was riding his left foot and never found the ground......nonetheless picky and never would be overturned!
 
Huge win tonight puts the Giants in first place, unlikely as it seems. Eli and JPP were magnificent. Also big games from Jacobs, the o-line (0 sacks), Ballard, Cruz, Nicks. The overall defense got stops when they had to, but other times played badly. A really thrilling game... Eli is dangerous in the 4th quarter!

Yeah he is! And the games have to be thrilling they can't stop anyone with all those rookie no-names running around at LBer and DB's...........add a couch potato to the mix as defensive captain at times and it's amazing their still alive........Christmas Eve is now a huge game!!!.............right DEEP?
 
There hasn't been one relaxing game all season. Is that even possible?

I was ready to finally focus 100% of my effort on college ball after they went down 12 in the fourth and then they pull that off.

An did anyone else NOT expect Coughlin to ice there? He just doesn't seem to like the gimmick plays and I really wasn't sure he was going to use it there ... even though it seemed like a no brainer given the rookie kicker and what happened the week prior.

still not thrilled both teams arent that good the NFC East is just week its equivelant of the big east in football, without Eli the Giants are winless

yep im not suprised either team plays with no heart I would rather go 3-13 then watch this shit
 
3rd quarter was nausea inducing but the final product was DELICIOUS. There's no better cure for a New Year's hangover than Jerry Jones' face looking like he just ate a lemon.

yes the 3rd and early 4th was typical giant fan torture period. They stop doing what got them a 21pt lead on both sides of the ball. But some people made some plays and we get the falcons next week.....never know
 
GMen keeping this thread alive and doing so all while looking the best they have all year.

Great great win. Defense held them scoreless.
 
Giants are looking VERY scary. Very tough defense, solid offensive line and running game, excellent kicking game, smart and accurate QB and excellent receivers. Couple more wins and thy are in the Big Game.
 
Man have my Giants proven me wrong I was ready to give up on them, just an awesome performance shutting out the Falcons offense, all I wanted was a chance to play GB again well see what happens.

G men take down the Pack and the refs!

On to SanFran: thinking about Leonard Marshall and Montana.
 
A statement win, at lambeau, with the refs all but trying to duck*it up for them but they win comfortably anyway. Green Bay sure didn't look like a cold weather team, but NY did.
 
Eli Manning=Indiana Jones, got totally beaten up and popped right up no turnovers man he got lit up, you cannot rattle Eli

Weatherford was player of the game in my mind thank you Jets for concentrating on signing Buress and forgetting Weatherford lol

Man that was a blood bath I feel dead just watching that game I was standing up pacing back and forth I refused to eat
