Never said the Giants will get out of Green Bay, just that you can't take them for granted. You'll lose bets to me if I ever tell you to book something and you disagree. :thumbup:

Oh, so all of this to find out we are saying the same thing...

Giants won't best GB but Dallas doesn't want to see them

I've been saying this the whole time

Don't think we're saying exactly the same things. I give Green Bay the edge but it wouldn't surprise me if the Giants win. The Giants have been a more consistent team this season but the Packers and Rodgers are on a hot streak. The Cowboys are going to have their hands full with either team. The Giants know how to beat us and have confidence they can beat us. The Packers and Rodgers are playing better than they were when we beat them earlier in the season and off weeks don't seem to benefit us. Eli and Rodgers have a big edge over Dak, having won championships and they have a lot of playoff experience.

I didn't like the way we mailed it in yesterday, throwing away an opportunity to win a franchise best 14 games. Zeke wasn't told until just prior to the game he wouldn't play and looked disappointed slumped on the bench. We still had some things to accomplish to make this season even more special and we threw it away just like the 07 team. I don't like the way we approached yesterdays game, losing by two scores to a team we could have easily beaten. This is just how we screwed up the 07 season, so much for entering the playoffs with momentum.

Giants had 0 sacks on Rodgers earlier this season when the Rodger's and the Packers offense was having all sorts of problems and rated in the bottom 3rd o the NFL.

What's different this time around?

DRC and Apple will be in the lineup this time. BIG difference.

we know Dak can't solve that giant defense and we can't run against that front. Snacks owns Fred and Free is a swinging gate. Did I mention it's Eli in the playoffs on the road? I've seen this movie before so let's go Pack

Says you. Game #1 was Dak's/Zeke's 1st game. Game #2 Dak played in 30 degree weather and the ball was slippery. Eli even said that. And Dak wasn't wearing long sleeves or gloves. He obviously was more effected by the cold than the Giants d.

I don't think we should have any preference , its playoffs. Knock-out Stage. Whomsoever is the opponent , we need to steamroll and get by , only way to advance to championship.

I'd like to avoid the Giants. They held the Cowboys to 19 points in their first meeting. They held the Saints to 13 points. Then, over the last month, they held the Cowboys, Commanders and Lions to 23 points — combined.

I think it's overly simplistic to say that the Cowboys didn't play well against the Giants because of it being the first game, or the cold, or whatever. The Giants have a very good defense -- and good defenses can (and often) carry teams to Superbowls.

Give me the Packers -- I don't think Aaron Rodgers, as brilliant as he is, can put the rest of that team - minus any sort of RB and with a horrific defense, on his back and beat the Cowboys

Not worried about either of them. They can worry about us. If the Giants think they can go to the well 3 times they are in for a surprise. Packets could put up 30 against us and would still lose. The Falcons and that run game is what is standing between us and the Superbowl. Get a lead on them early and force them to pass and they wont keep up.

We are either good enough or not. But if we are not we are pretty close and this time the window is gaping.

Aaron Rogers might be same category of Tom Brady of QBs you don't want to face in playoffs.
Playoff Eli is a total different animal; just ask Tom Brady

Eli hasn't been hot like in previous years that Giants went to Super Bowl. In fact if you score about 20 points on Giants you usually win.
