Sounds like you're just upset because the other teams didn't respect the game and let the teams you like win?

this is getting to be about as original as a milli vanilli concert

Who's milli vanilli? Are you in her fan club?

LOL. That's what happens when you get what you wish for. I think the Packers would have been better off going to Dallas. After all the Giants were able to adjust after having lost to the Packers badly in a game earlier in the year. I think that type of adjustment would have been made by the Packers as well.

Maybe, But that is only if Favre lays down like he did when Strahan set the season Sack Record a few years back. lol

It sounds like to me that incident was fairly innocuous (based on the article, they were joking and it was only like a minute), but apparently there were other incidents, unrelated, that lead up to this.

Ha. To be honest I'm more worried about him than Favre.

Nice analysis Yank. You didn't mention the temperature factor at Lambeau. Not that the Giants aren't familiar with cold weather playing or anything, but the temps are going to be positively bitter. Could be Ice Bowl II and both teams will be affected.

Yeah I saw that it will probably be in the single digits. Is there a forcast for snow?

I think Green Bay is the better team in this match up. Ofcourse I am a Bias Packer Fanatic, But I do not see the Giants walking out of Lambeau Field with anything but a loss and some bruises.

Key to this game. Eli Manning. The presure of it being a big game is going to get the best of him. He will make some costly mistakes.

This is kind of like Yoda vs a young Skywalker. The force is weak in this one.

I would agree if this was Favre vs Romo but it's not. The way Eli has been playing I don't expect him to go into the game thinking he has to upstage Favre like Romo would if he was playing in this spot. Now if the Packers have Eli on the run then sure he's likely to turn it over just like any other QB. What I would be more concern about is the pressure the Packers have. It's all on them. They got the matchup they wanted. They are playing at home. They are the ones everyone is picking so they better win. If anybody turns it over a bunch of times it's just as likely to be Favre, he's the gung-ho type. Not that I expect it to happen, just saying. In any case I think the Packers better be careful in the early stages. If they spot the Giants 14-0 like they did Seattle last week they are not getting it back. The Giants aren't the patsy team Seattle trots out on the road.

The Giants won't be as easy as Seattle but every Packer fan is thankful the Giants beat Dallas. The extreme cold is going to be a huge factor. Kicking, throwing and catching become very difficult, not to mention your body just does not want to perform. The ball gets hard as a rock, expect lots of fumbles and bad throws. Plus, those hard thows are difficult to catch when your frozen fingers feel like they are made of glass.
Running game and holding on to the ball will be key as well as depth to rotate players and prevent frozen/numb hands and feet.

If it wasn't for the boneheaded time out called by a defensive coach in the Ravens game. They would have managed it. No one on the field wanted a time out. The players knew what was coming and stopped it. So the players won the game and the coach gave it back to the Pats.

Any team is beatable, but, in this case, unlike any of the other teams, no one's managed it yet.

Agreed, but the result is the same: the Pats won and the Ravens' season is over
