The Giants have been absolutely on fire and were the most impressive team in this divisional series.
ShEli Manning played a pretty good game with 330 yards and 3 TDs and lead receiver Hakeem Nicks led the way with 7 receptions and 165 yards and 2 TDs. ShEli hasn't made a those mistakes she's been accustom to recently, and if they beat the Giants this weekend she has a chance to win her 2nd superbowl.
The Packers leave the year as your token flash in the pan regular season team, we have seen this the past couple of years with the top record teams and yet another team falls victim. The Packers 15-1 regular season will be more remembered as a choke job season more than being productive. It wasn't all Aaron Rodgers fault for the loss but he should shoulder a big percentage of the blame. His WR dropped 6 passes, and there were 2 fumbles. But Rodgers threw a pick and fumbled the ball and on top of that his timing looked off all game. I guess now BMack can fall back on his second team in the Patriots now.
36 San Francisco, 32 Saints
The Saints decided not to cover Vernon Davis all game and that killed them. I still don't take the 49ers seriously for some reason. I'm still waiting for Alex Smith to make a mistake, but in this game he didn't. He actually had a great game and won on of the best games I have ever seen.
For a majority of the game it was pretty boring but with 4 minutes left in the game, all hell broke loose. with 4 minutes left the should be MVP Drew Brees hit Darren Sproles with a 44 yard pass for the lead for a 24-23 lead. Then Jim Harbough called a great play and had Alex Smith naked bootleg for a 28 yard scamper for a 29-24 lead (failed 2 point attempt) with 2 minutes left. Then Drew Brees hit TE Jimmy Graham for a 66 yard strike with 1:30 left to retake the 32-29 lead. And against all odds Alex Smith and Vernon Davis made a mockery of the Saints secondary which finally ended in a 14 Yd TD Pass with 9 seconds left.
Drew Brees finished with 40/63 with 463 yards and 4 TDs and 2 Ints in a losing effort. Hell of a game.
20 Baltimore, 13 Houston
This game was boring as hell and Ed Reed is pretty good.
