The New York team will drop the first two letters of their name and henceforth will be known simply as the New York Ants.

Its always about Favre. As if the game is being taken over by a single personality.

I am a huge Giants fan.

Today I recorded the game and went to see Sherlock Holmes at the theater. I made the right decision.

When I got home I fast forwarded through most of the game and just watched the scoreboard. Thank the Lord I didn't sit through the game. I was done watching in in about 30 minutes. When I saw the score go up, I would just rewind the play and check it out. Only had to do it once for the Giants!

They really were horrendous this year. If they don't fire the O and D coordinators there will be little reason to watch them. I do hope to get to the new stadium next season though!

Looks like Coughlin has lost the team, and it might be time for a change.

As much as he is a pompous ass, he killed it this year. Over 4,000 yards passing. I hope they play New Orleans in the playoffs. THAT will be a sweet game.

The preseason rap was that the G-men would have a stellar defense this year. What an embarrasing slice of swiss cheese they threw out there instead. However good to see the Boys kick green bird butt out there today.

New Orleans is “one and done”. They did it with mirrors most of the season, and inevitable in this league, you get figured out.

I’m a Packer fan and would love to see Favre lose in the playoffs.
GO PACK!
Our game was boring too: we almost shut out the cardinals. We are already in the playoffs so the game didn’t matter. I took down my Christmas tree...

The Pack is reminding us of the Giants team in ‘07. Playing solidly at the end of the year and putting up lots of points—they barely lost that Pittsburgh game too and GB plays well on the road too. Aaron Rodgers is proving his salt.

It’s revenge for 41-doughnut. 44-cruller has a nice ring to it :)

Well, that victory got us to the Superbowl.

This game meant nothing to us and little if anything to you in the grand scheme.

I'm not sure who I'm rooting for in the playoffs. I guess the Jets if they make it. I like Drew Breese but I hate Shockey.

But if I had to choose, I guess I would say the Colts. I like Peyton.

off subject, how was Sherlock Holmes? It’s not a lib film is it? I plan to bring my girl for a movie on Tuesday and it’s the only one we could agree on.

Being a Tampa bay Bucceneer fan I feel your pain.

The only consolation was I knew the Bucs would suck this year. I am actually a little encouraged about next year. The Bucs have played much better the last half of the year.

Too bad they didn't throw Luftwich out after the first game.

The Packers did some pummeling of their own on the Cards today; and they did it WITHOUT Favre. :)

See you again next weekend!

Yeah, but the Cardinals sat Kurt Warner for rest, so it doesn’t really amount too much.

Kevin Gilbride was a flop at the OC for the Tennessee Titans in the late 90s; I was stunned when he joined the staff in NY. How we won a Super Bowl with him as a coordinator remains one of the great mysteries in NFL history.

However, Gilbride is light years ahead of his defensive counterpart, Bill Sheridan. When career back-up QBs start shredding your “D,” you know you’re in over your head. Sheridan needs to be fired tomorrow.

And, our so-called “whiz” of a GM better find some help in the secondary and at LB. And while he’s at it, see what we can get for Brandon Jacobs, too. The guy has absolutely no vision as a runner, and other teams have learned to hit him low, or simply gang tackle him. Either way, his effectiveness as an NFL back has dropped dramatically. Unfortunately, the rest of the league knows that, too, so his trade value is probably nil.

Finally, we could also use a WR with the size and skills of a Plaxico Burress. The guy’s an idiot off the field, but he sure created match-up problems for NFL secondaries, and no corners could defend him on the fade routes.

It promises to be an interesting off-season for the G-men. And the changes need to start tomorrow.
