After watching how tough it was to beat the 49ers, a team with a lower seed than the Packers, I am now convinced that the reason, and the only reason, why the Giants won was because the Packers beat themselves.
I take back all credit I previously gave to the Giants and I was wrong that they outplayed the Packers.
The Packers lost because of the death of Philbin's son. That got in the way of preparation and into their heads too much.
It was just too big of a reality check that the Packers could handle.
So the Giants just won on plain dumb luck. 1st against the Pack and now against the 49ers on two kick turnovers.
Giants are lucky and nothing else.
