Gotta? While there is confidence among Giant fans believe me not many are saying we gotta LOL

Weather report: for game time high of 44 degrees, clear skies......hmm that's not too bad for Atlanta Cry

it was in the 20s a few days ago!
Hopefully our famous wind will be kicking up to mess with Matt Ryan

Damn officials made a huge blunder which cost the Lions a touchdown yesterday when they blew the whistle on the Brees' fumble. The Lions were running that back for an easy touchdown. That would have made it 21 to 7 at that point. With that offense the Saints probably still win but damn that was a costly mistake. Sad part is that apparently they blew the call by giving the ball to the Lions, since by blowing the whistle before the Lions recovered the fumble it should have nullified the recovery. The league has some really f**ked up rules that really need to get fixed.

Also, if the Lions pick off any of Brees' passes that went right through their hands the Lions win that game last night. Also, it really would have been nice to see just a little bit of pressure applied on Brees. I think I saw him get a haircut and a complete manicure in the amount of time he had on most of those plays.

Oh well, the future does look somewhat brighter, but I still have a feeling that the Lions will still be looking up at the leagues' elite for years to come. At least until they learn how to play defense. Which is funny, since neither the Saints or Packers are any good at defense either.

I think you'll see the Lions in the playoffs quite a bunch this decade.

Yeaaaaa!!!!!! NYG win.....I knew Manning would come thru with a good game. Falcons are pretty bad once the post-season starts.

If the Gmen can hound Aaron next week....hmm I think they have a legit shot.

NFL = Nutty Flag Laws

Teeeeboww, Teeebowww!!!

(I don't care about the AFC....I wanna see him beat Rothlesfatheadburger)

Tebow is going to off the Steelers in MoM's worst nightmare.

"One had to be a Newton to notice that the moon is falling, when everyone sees that it doesn't fall. "

Holy sh*t.
I am honestly shocked.

Shootouts or "win but..." this year. Never expected the defense to actually play well. Not that the Falcons are the Saints or Packers frightening but that offense is no joke, which got shutout. As well as 41 yards on 15 carries for Turner. A shocking defensive effort from my Giants.
The run game looked the best it has all year, with Jacobs really running like a man possessed.

Eli was needless to say, perfect as usual. Great throws all over the field, that TD pass to Manningham almost made me cry it was so beautiful LOL

Well...if our D can contain Rodgers enough (and our offense can keep him off the field to begin with) a win is certainly possible. I at least have hope now.

Guess I also need to pray the Niners can beat the Saints. Not only would I LOVE for defense to actually shut them down but playing the Niners in Frisco sounds 9000 times better than the Saints in the dome. That would truly be a nightmare. For right now I am just savoring this awesome win! Best game the team has played this entire season.

Eli was great, but you can't call him perfect when he takes an intentional grounding penalty for a safety.

^ Exactly!!
