Nice, a lot better game than I thought it would be.

This was a great game...I was expecting the Giants to at least cover, but they actually won in an impressive fashion...can't wait until next week...Packers vs Giants for the NFC Championship, very interesting...Go Pack Go!

Yeah, but that's the pre game show...I was talking about NFL live which is on ESPN at 4pm. A couple experts picked the G-men...not only that, on Inside the NFL (on HBO) 2/4 experts picked the Giants. Although more experts (overall) picked the Cowboys (not surprising considering they were a 7.5 favorite), I was simply responding to the statement that NO expert picked the Giants, which isn't correct.

Great win by the G-men, but damn my stomach was churning with the 'Boys inside the 20 with 21 seconds to play. You can't help but feel the worst could happen.
Eli played within himself and did not get flustered. He moved in the pocket and was effective. Romo was the complete opposite, tightening up as the game came to crunch time. Getting hit was not to his liking, as evidenced by him throwing the ball away a couple of times when no one was even near him. Marion Barber is a horse, but why did Dallas go so far away from him in the 2nd half? They gave him the ball in obvious running situations only. There were times in the 2nd half when you just knew they were only going to throw the ball and the defense could just go after him. I think Dallas' playcalling was off in the 2nd, relying too much on the pass. Which is odd because I have the utmost respect for Jason Garrett and his playcalling.
On to Green Bay. To me the best part is that now regardless of who wins next week, I'll have someone to root for as GB is one of those teams I root for after the Giants. Both will be prohibitive underdogs to the Pats, but at least I can root for one. A Cowboys-Pats Super Bowl would have been a killer for me as they are the two teams I dislike the most in the NFL.

I can't wait till Next Sunday now, Giants vs Packers will be a great game!
We are in the Conference Championship game! and I have 1000 points on the Giants winning the Super Bowl at 50-1 odds!
Ahhhh yes...the old "no one gave us a chance" line. I listen to and watch quite a bit of NFL talk shows and I think I actually heard more "experts" picking the Giants then I did the Cowboys.
Anyway, the Patriots with crush San Diego and I think the Packers will beat the Giants. That will lead to a super ratings super bowl. Think of the story lines from the possible undefeated season for the Patriots to Brett Favre's amazing run. The TV execs are loving it.

I just watched channel 5's pre game and ALL 4 guys picked the Boys. Plus I know Cowboys fans in work and you would have thought they got another bye the way they gave us no chance to win!
Pats--Giants Super Bowl?!
I can hope!
