the only thing I can predict is that the Giants will get assreamed by the Falcons. They were lucky to play the biggest chokers in modern history just to sneak into the playoffs and they won't get lucky next weekend

[DeadlyDynasty]

That's a possibility no doubt, but Matt Ryan aint exactly captain clutch in the playoffs either, tbh

I'd bet on the Giants beating the Falcons. Matt Ryan has been terrible in the playoffs and still is until proven otherwise.

As a Falcons fan, I wish I could argue the point but I can't. I do think J Jones coming on helps out a lot. This is still only his 4th year and 3rd playoffs so we will see.

I wouldn't write off the Giants this early. This run is kind of resembling their Super Bowl run. The D-line is clicking, not to mention, their O-line is playing their best football. Eli has def stepped his game up and is playing "Tom Brady" like in the 4th quarter. The Falcons D is very questionable when it comes to making game changing plays. With NY at home, Ill take them over ATL.

It is good to see someone else seeing the Giants as the most dangerous team in the playoffs. You see how the D is wrecking havoc. They will fluster rodgers and brees the way they did Romo and Sanchez. You see how this team is very similar to 07 squad. Man this is going to be sweet when I bump all these threads after the Giants win the superbowl.

[stretch]

I still don't quite understand why this troll chose the Giants as his football team. I can understand the Heat and Phillies, but why the Giants, as opposed to the Eagles, Patriots, or Steelers?

tbh i was just drunk at the time and felt like making fun of Dallas more than anything. I see the Giants beating ATL too.

Although I think the G-men are a dangerous playoff team, i dont see the comparisons with 2007 (outside of their dominant d-line). The 2007 Giants could run the ball like it was nobody's business with a healthy earth, wind, and fire in the backfield. This year's Giants can't run for --even with the threat of Nicks and Cruz on the outside and Eli playing at an elite level. Their secondary is still iffy as well.

You lost all credibility with that re ed prediction. This isnt the giants of 2007 anymore dumbass. Their d isnt that good and no way will they hold Rodgers to 23 especially at home. He will score over 30. The giants beat 2 imploding teams and all of a sudden this guy thinks they can win in Green Bay. Only 1 team can stop the pack and that is the saints.

Your post is pretty much right, but... I just got a strange gut feeling. I don't think the Giants would beat the Packers, but if they do, it wouldn't shock me one bit. Any other team? I would be shocked. No idea why I feel that way, but I just do.
