Of course. Just like we used to do consistently. Still a loss.

I was referring to the announcers. Kept saying that and didn't give much credit to the Cardinals.

The Cards seemed to have a favorable game called by the referees early. Usually don't happen like that.

They were able to go east coast early, with a backup QB, very little QB pressures and come away with a win.

That is the best case scenario for us fans.

Way to go CARDS!

Who cares. The scoreboard still shows us with the win and them with the loss. :)

They did, but that's football.

Arians talked about "Cardinald not beating Cardinals." Well, giants beat giants

Jimmy Johnson and Bradshaw actually just gave us major props. Even said teams better take notice. Terry talking about us traveling without our starting QB and winning, said we have a lot of poise.

Nice!!

Yes the Giants did beat themselves. 5 dropped passes. 2 fumbles. Penalties at critical times.

But who cares? It's a blast watching other teams shoot themselves in the foot.

Just a heads up, they are going to be showing post game interviews on FOX here in a few minutes.

The announcers were actually rooting for the Giants. That's the problem with national TV. If you aren't east or west coast, you just can't be any good.

I thought to myself: this is what playing the Cards must have been like back in the day.

Remember the last time these two teams played and a Giant's receiver went down untouched and fumbled the ball? Cards recovered and it looked like that would seal a victory...

Then the officials ruled that, "The player gave himself up." It kept the drive alive and they won the game.

And then the Giants snuck into the playoffs with 1 win to spare and ended up winning the SB.

So at least that didn't happen again.

Exactly, I'd be perfectly happy if every opponent beat themselves against us.
