Packers beat the Giants 32-13 in the regular season without having discovered Ryan Grant and playing in good weather.

With the weather you guys saw the Packers play yesterday and the Giants inability to really run the ball I like the Packers.

No Shockey too, and the Giants D is even more beat up.

but the giants D has improved drastically from week 2 to now. and our passing game have been better w/out shockey.

Eli Manning and bad weather don't get along.

Packers offense has made huge strides too along with the defense.

And the Cowboys beat the Giants twice this season but look what happened today. All bets are off in the playoffs.

Gonna be a great game. Although I expect Favre to go nuts on this beat up Giants secondary. But the way their D played today might surprise a lot of us.

Packers 21
Giants 17

I'm just going off the record. Take it from it what you wish.

Either way let's all celebrate a Dallas loss today :clap:

Giants have been playing out of their minds but they are going to be facing Favre, the Lambeau crowd and some very VERY cold weather. Still going to be a tough game though.

Packers 27
Giants 20

I'm actually glad that Dallas lost. Now we get to see both conference championships played the way they were supposed to be played. Outside in the snow. Outside in New England and in the frozen tundra of lambeau field

I want to insert some classless comment about GB vs Chicago last month, but you played a hell of a game yesterday. And you are the best team in the NFC imo.

Packers will win this game, Favre wants to be Elway before he retires.
