2012 NFL playoff thread

Go Giants, to hell with NE and their largely bandwagon fanbase.

^^^ ha ha, here we go.

Disappointing, was hoping to see some different teams in there this year.

this thread is going to be hillarious for 2 weeks.

Best sign going forward for Giants fans is how good that Front 4 is playing right now. That was the biggest key in that Superbowl win over the Pats. Teams have changed a lot since then but could be a huge factor

Ya, crazy to think that a 9-7 team will possibly be a much harder matchup for the 13-3 Pats. One things for sure, Pats fans should be nervous. As per usual, people will start asking if the 2 weeks off is a bad thing for the momentum team (in this case, the Giants).

First off I will say that the SF defense is beastly! Good god is that defense amazing. I know Alex Smith led them to the NFC Championship game but if they can get a decent QB and maybe 1 more reciever then they would be unstoppable.

Anyways, so glad the Giants won! Their defense is playing great and Cruz, Nicks, Manningham etc are beasts. Eli has the experience as well.

It's going to be a pro Giants crowd in Indianapolis.

E. Manning vs Brady in the Superbowl in big brother's house. I like the Giants to repeat what happened the first time they met. I think it will be a close game either way but I like the Giants defense compared to the Patriots defense.

Giants 27
Patriots 24

Go ELI!!!!!!!!!!!!

Elisha has the most annoying face and voice, you want to continuously keep punching it.

Lets go Tom kill that garbage team.

[PeteLFan]

Patriots 38 Giants 0 in Superbowl. Bill and Tom will net let it happen again.

[M*A*S*H 4077]

Eli vs Brady in the house that Peyton built.

Go Giants! Down with the patriots!

[Flabbibulin]

I will give a small edge to the Giants I think, but I do find the automatic call for victory in the Giants column to be a little hilarious... for a team that gave up 60 more points and scored 120 less in the regular season...

cue the momentum argument- which is an interesting one considering the Pats have won 10 in a row and the Giants 5

[flames_1987]

Patriots have the best player on the field and have the greatest coach in the history of the game with 2 weeks to prepare. (Note to Giants: Make sure there's no cameramen in you're walk through) The Giants do have the more complete team but Brady has made up for the Patriots god awful D all season. Should be a great game

Sucks if you like storylines going into this SuperBowl because there are absolutely none leading into it..............

It is going to be a close game either way. Neither team is going to get blown out. I predicted 27-24 Giants. Baltimore has an unreal defense and Rice is a good RB, but Flacco (although he played well) can't lead a team. Manning will punch in more opportunities. On the opposite side, a offense led by Brady is always dangerous with all the weapons that he has.

I expect a game that is close all the way to deep in the 4th.

and, this will make for a much more exciting 2 weeks imo... it is always my favourite time of the year for sports

[flames_1987]

Jim Harbaugh has got one hell of a competitive side but how long can that last and still work with his team? Doesn't speak to the media after the game, barely a handshake, and then there was the Sean Payton incident in the pre-season and the Jim Schwartz thing. If I'm a 49ers fan I love how much this guy wants to win but that act can go south really fast

After the Evans' non-catch, the Pat's Moore clearly interferred Evans at the goal line by grapping to Evans' waist at the 3rd and 1.

[dirk diggler]

the thought of seeing Eli the hick get another ring sickens me...
