I would've said Falcons in this one up until last Sunday night when it looked like the Giants were getting things together up front defensively.

Either way, should be a competitive game.

I think this game will definitely be much closer than the ones yesterday. I cant decide who i think will win but it will be by a td or less. Ill go Giants 30-24 and they will have a Def td.

Falcons. I think they're the dark horse in the NFC.

Stop Victor Cruz and you stop the Giants. Absolutely no running game, and a bad defense

The linebackers and defensive backs of the Giants are weak.

But the defensive line, pass rush can be tough. They looked good last week but not sure if they can carry that over.

If Ryan can get the ball out and not get beat up, I think they'll win.

Very good RB, solid QB and playmakers at WR, HOF TE and they seemed to find themselves and put it together as the season went on. I think that the beatdown at the hands of Green Bay stuck with them all offseason and they've got something to prove this year in the playoffs.

Ya but a lot of people got stomped by NO. Obviously they didn't have it that game, doesn't mean they can't put it together the next time they meet. That happens all the time in the NFL. See: giants pats in the super bowl

a little browns magic there from the giants...need 14, throw it for 10

edit - and then the falcons honor the browns with a 3 and out on their first possession.

As a browns fan I'm rooting for the NY Giants. Lot of defense thus far in this game, a nice stark contrast from game last night.

We needa spread it out and pass a little bit. The Giants secondary is terrible, but their line is good
