Was that NBC or the Metlife that was playing the music during Cruz's TD celebration?? It sounded like NBC, but theres no way they would do that???

Hoping the Giants can win this game. Go Eli.

14-0 Giants in the 2nd.

Cowboys a no show when it matters...yet again...shouldnt be surprised. geting owned at the line of scrimmage on both sides of the ball.

[OILFAN #81]

Dallas needs a new QB. Tony Romo is not the solution for them.

This is so freaking hopeless. I hate sports.

Become a Pats fan....you'll LOVE it!

[GirlySports]

Newman doesn't want to tackle anyone.

[GirlySports]

Yeah become a Pats fan! Worse defense in the league but it's better than Dallas'!

[Machiavelli]

Cheering for any other team sounds pretty good right now. The worst thing is, they put themselves in a position to be fighting for their playoff lives on the road by completely blowing at least four should-be wins.

Freaking Romo.

21-0 Giants. Looks like they will host the Falcons next week.

Getting really excited about Luck from reading all the articles from Indianapolis.
Looking more and more like the Colts will take Luck and have him be the backup to Peyton for 1 year. Love that as he can get all the experience in the world from one of the best QB's ever.

Just listened to Aaron Rodgers' ESPN interview and he said the Colts should take Luck and have him play behind Manning for at least a year.

Really just the one blown win against the Giants up 12 with 5 minutes to go. The other ones are stupid too but not as costly. Romo can only do so much. That defense cannot stop anyone.

Playing Romo in a nothing game last week was especially stupid. Of course he got hurt. It's the Cowboys.

It's not a bad team, just a very poorly coached/managed one. Watching the game tonight, it's freaking Week 17 how can a team still be getting snap counts wrong and jumping offsides on Eli's snap counts? How can they keep Newman who doesn't want to tackle anybody? How can they not know how to jump in fumbles or run out of bounds and then illegally touch the ball?

Jerry Jones needs to check his ego at the door and get a real coach that would shape everyone up and ship out the garbage players.

Leadership starts at the top...and Jerrah is a horrible leader and even worse GM...he is the only reason the boys arent better than they are...period.

Sucks that Eli will be in the playoffs. Hate that loser and the giants. Then again tony romo is a awful qb when it matters most.

[Spuds_Buckley]

Well, I'm happy the Ravens got the bye. I'm fully expecting to see Ravens / Steelers again in the playoffs this year. I think Pittsburgh dismantles Denver, and Cincy takes care of Houston, which would create this familiar match-up <gulp>. At least they have the home field advantage this year....

So are the saints...and GB is 15-1 with a bad defense....weird weird year

[PeteLFan]

Bad defenses or are the offenses today really really good and you have record setting qb play. I think defenses have shifted to more of a takeaway league right now instead of points and yardage.

[OILFAN #81]

21-14 Giants now in the 4th.
