Que? You slept through the Carolina game or something? Also you're seriously going to count this week as a flop? I've never seen a more purposely relaxed game played by the Giants in a long while. When is the last time they swapped out so many starters for second and third string players and dropped Eli after the first half? That game didn't matter at all and they still came within one point of beating Minnesota. At least that should bode well for the Eagles. Minnesota won't make it anywhere in the playoffs at this rate.

I didn't watch most of the Carolina game, but when you go from scoring on your first drive, and scoring on most of your drives, to barely being able to score with your starting lineup (in refence to thier last 3 losses), then that is sad.
Also, Giants had the chance to knock the Vikings out of the playoffs (them having the #1 run defence is a very good reason to play hard and get rid of them early), and they sit around and let them in. Now the Giants are likely to face them again (if they beat the Eagles) and the giants second string played better against them than their first string. So now you have a team, that knows they can stand up against the Giants coming into the playoffs after a good victory. Just from a mental perspective, it was stupid not to beat them first before replacing starters.
For the Giants, they are flopping, and unless they can pull it together, they will either lose to the Eagles, or the Vikings, whoever faces them in the playoffs.
