I think so.And minor nitpick, 42 is XLII, not XVII.

Certainly possible, especially if he continues on to have several more good regular seasons.

It's funny, before the season started I was saying Cruz was going to pass Manningham on the depth chart and be a solid #2. He just needed to learn the playbook better and get some chemistry with Eli. Never in my wildest dreams did I think he would do this though.

Nicks and Cruz have been very dependable. They make the big gain circus catch plays, but they also make the short yardage, drive extending third down catches, and that's important.

Idea for a Super Bowl drinking game:
One shot for every time Michaels or Collinsworth says "elite".
One shot for every time Michaels or Collinsworth mentions Super Bowl XLII.We'd all be dead by the five minute mark of the first quarter.

GMEN! Hopefully Eli becomes the last Manning to ever win a game in Indy Ready for same Brady beatdown v2.0. Neither team is better than they were in 2007 but Giants D-line is pretty close to edging out 07's IMO. Strahan, Tuck, Osi vs. Tuck, Osi, JPP? It worked four years ago and its gonna work again!! 2 in 4! LETS GO!

For the 30 losers that aren't headed to the Super Bowl, what are some things on your offseason wish lists for your teams?
Broncos
In the draft, we need to add a penetrating interior lineman. Guys like Still from Penn State and Worthy from Michigan State should be on the board at pick #25. We also need a talented safety valve at tight end. Dwayne Allen from Clemson is arguably the best TE in this class, and should be there at 25 as well. Eddie Konz should be a dominant center in this league for years to come, and although we just recently drafted JD Walton, if you have the opportunity to significantly improve a position, you go for it. A guy like Kendall Wright at WR, David Wilson at RB, or Josh Norman at CB (fast riser at the Shrine Bowl) would be great second round picks.As far as free agency, we need to try to add a backup QB that will challenge Tebow for playing time and therefore push him to get better. Not that Tebow won't try to improve, because he obviously will, but we need a viable option behind him in case he flops. Brady Quinn was not going to cut it this year. I'd like to see us add a veteran middle linebacker that can be a difference maker. Lofton will probably resign in Atlanta, but a guy that I'm banking we'll pursue is Dan Connor from Carolina. Fox drafted him, after all, and when Beason went down this year, he played very well. We could really use a veteran CB like Terrell Thomas (might want more money than the Giants are willing to give after the ACL injury), Brandon Carr, or Tracy Porter (nagged by injuries and fell victim to the emergence of Patrick Robinson). A dominant DE to play opposite Dumervil is probably a luxury at this point, given our other more gaping needs. Avril would be awesome, but he's in a great situation on that emerging D-line in Detroit and will probably re-up. If they don't see a DT prospect they like in the draft, then Jason Jones would be a terrific option. Probably the best available interior pass rusher this offseason. A one-cut running back like Ryan Grant or Michael Bush, along with McGahee, would give Fox the physical running game he's looking for. The wish list is long, and we need to fill a lot of holes to compete. But a lot of these options are realistic, and I'm hoping Elway can have another solid draft and put together some quality free agents in this, his first normal offseason.

Colts - draft Luck, re-sign Wayne, replace every defensive player not named Freeney, Mathis, Bethea, and Angerer.

I really, really want the Broncos to draft Russell Wilson. I don't care how short he is.

ESPN isn't even showing the Bradshaw "fumble". So much for it being a controversy this week.

I wasn't in here to see the reaction but I thought the forward progress ruling was accurate. Veron Davis did seem to step out of bounds well before the endzone for his 73 yard TD catch though.

I thought Davis stepped out too but there is no definite shot of it so I can't complain of the call

The ball slightly touching the return man call was quite amazing though. I swore the refs were going to stay with the call on the field because even with the replays it was so close. Between that and the fumble in OT that return man should be on suicide watch. Poor guy, I hope he doesn't let it bother him long.

I'm a Jets fan and I root for the Giants every game, except when they play the Jets (every 4 years). I'm loving this right now. And as far as Rex goes..>SHUT YOUR PIEHOLE YOU BIG FAT PIG!! I'm so tired of him running his mouth...

Krinkle, I like you dude, but you have to give it a rest. If the MVP was a "true value of a player to a team award", since Peyton Manning can't get it for being hurt (which honestly he should because holy crap is that team putrid without him), Eli Manning is the true MVP of the NFL this season. This is his year. 5856 yards, 37 TDs - 17 INT. on a team that has a line that has shown up probably 1/3rd of the time, and can't run the ball to save their lives. BG's post isn't even worth a comment. Beat a 15-1 team on the road, handily, obviously they had nothing to do with it. They're in the Super Bowl, and if he got his knee blown out in preseason they'd be lucky to be a 4 or 5 win team. That being said, the 49ers D was pretty awesome today (see, BG, I give credit to the other team instead of saying the Giants line was the cause of the problem), and that was a sucky way for them to go out. I think we may have won eventually without it, barring a disasterous turnover, because Smith had a big time case of the yips from the end of the 4th on, but still...
