Manning fumbles..game over,.that was horrible.
The next game at Chicago will be tough, but I think they can get it done.

Coughlin loves Eli. He will get what he deserves.

Steve Smith: "We knew we'd have an easy time playing against the Giants with Eli healthy."

Plax's best move all day was the long pout.

Really? I picked Carolina to win, I thought it would be a little closer ,of course. Carolina is a very good team, the problem all year is that they have been inconsistent, if they show up to play- look out!
Chicago will have their hands full.

Have you ever seen a place clear out as fast as Giant Stadium?

We'll see...there is an actual GAME that has to be played.

Check out the stats from the regular season game HERE.

PLUS...Wrecked Grossman is playing.

I'm picking the Steelers. If the Bengals of mid -season form show up, you may be correct. The way the Bengals have played the last couple of weeks I'm not sure they are ready to get to the next level , just yet.

LOL

Kurt Warner would have led them to a victory.

Carolina fans need to write Eli and thank him.

Indeed. Eli Manning is one of the best quarterbacks ever to play for the other team.

LOL.

I just saw that first "playoff" game. I haven't the best memory in the world, but the Giants' performance was the WORST I have ever seen on the part of a playoff team. Those players looked like they all got individual death threats before the game.

Secondly, I don't know if you noticed, but that was one of the shortest games of the NFL year. I think it lasted no more than two hours and 40 minutes. Good riddance to the Giants. What a terrible performance.

Carolina is VERY good and that Foster is excellent! Great game plan by coach Fox.

So, now I'm getting ready for the Steelers.

Hope to see the Patriots down the road.

;-)

Me neither.

What's more pathetic is they didn't even put any points on the board.

Laughable!

I can't wait to see the post game with Archie; he will say something about the refs, yet the only plus yardage the Eliants had was by blown calls. ALL blown calls went in favor of the Eliants.

In that meeting the Panthers fumbled 3 times and had 7 penalties for over 60 yards. Also, Foster only touched the ball 9 times. Grossman???????? 59% QB rating. No chance. I hope they DO beat Carolina but it won't happen.

The Bears-NYG playoff game in 1985 was quite similar.
Giants came to Chicago, temps in the ZERO range...windy too.
Bears dominated. Remember the wind-blown PUNT that the kicker wiffed on?

If I'm reading the "drive chart" on ESPN correctly, the Giants' deepest penetration into Carolina territory was the 39 yard line. That has to be some sort of playoff record. Not even a field goal attempt.
