They were down 14-0 very early in the game and came back to take the lead. And then after Eli threw another int on the first play of the second half and the Bills took the lead. The defense made it happen, returning 2 picks for TD's. Also huge days by the backfield of Jacobs and Bradshaw. Finally in the second half, they stopped letting Eli throw the ball. He also did manage to fumble 3-4 snaps in the game which he lost 2 of. Just a great effort from the other 52 guys on the roster.
I am very excited to see them in the playoffs again, especially after the way the seaon started. But relistically I am not expecting much, even though in my opinion the NFC is not that strong. Mr Manning better sharpen up his game for the playoffs if they are going to have any shot. They won today despite him, but they will not be able to do that in the playoffs. I guess I just have to keep the faith in a guy that the only thing that he has going for himself right now is his last name.

Despite him is right! I'm not a Giants fan, but he stinks. I know he's got alot to live up to, in terms of his father and brother being good, and outstanding QB'S respectively, and that's got to put pressure on the kid. To me, he's extremely immature at the position, and damn clumsy with the football both passing and just trying to take a freakin snap! Perhaps in time he'll come around, right now I do not see him taking them very far even in the mediocre NFC!
