The Giants are capable of defeating any and all of those teams left on their schedule. I'm not seeing any compelling evidence here. Not to say your scenario is impossible. I just wouldn't count on it.

The Packers have an excellent shot at beating the Giants, it could go either way actually. I can see us winning the next two games, but it won't be easy.

I like taken it game by game. I hate looking ahead. Having Murray back will be huge, as far as the OL, I'm not as confident as you are. And yes, I'd love to see Harris and Beasley more involved in the offense.

Yeah, the Giants won't lay down and quit, Coughlin will coach'em up as he always does.

I agree with the looking-ahead part. I can easily see us losing to either CLE and/or WAS. Neither of these games are gimmes.

But, as far as enjoying the season goes, I'm hopeful we take care of business here, because it makes the Dec games so much more interesting. I can deal with missing the playoffs in week 17 if I have to, but being out of it for the last 3-4 weeks of the season is the absolute worst. It's getting cheated out of meaningful football, knowing you've got months and months of solid waste to slog through before you even get to the draft and veteran free agency.
When asked whether Jason Garrett is the right head coach for this team: "I don't think there is anyone else that could. I think he is an unbelievable coach. We've responded to him and he has made us better football players, better people. If you watch us I think we play with a certain relentless spirit." --Sean Lee

Our home crowd really needs to get into these home games. Especially in these next few games. Maybe we can get something going.

We can't rely on other teams to lose out just so we make it. I hate that scenario. For crying out loud if we win our own games, nothing else matters.

I agree but this is more about the Giants not going up against the Cowboys in December and having to play a tougher schedule.

And I been looking at the NFL long enough to know that with each win comes more and more confidence. So 6-5 will have this team playing better in December if they get these next 2 games

The Giants have played their WORST FOOTBALL at home and was lucky to win against the skins and browns. Now you have Brees and Rodgers coming into their home stadium which will be losses.

Oh whatever, a QB who closes his eyes and throws the ball up in the air and hopes someone catches it who plays for the Giants is not my ideal of a MVP

It does piss me off to see Eli complete passes like that.

There's a reason they play the games...
