The Giants lifts George Halas Trophy by won overtime at the NFC championship NFL football game Sunday, Jan. 22, 2012, in San Fransisco.
The team won 20-17 to advance to Super Bowl XLVI. The New York Giants will play the New England Patriots on February 5th in Indiana Polis. It will be a super rematch lead by Eli Manning, and it’s time on older brother Peyton’s home field. Eli Manning said, “It doesn’t matter to me where’re you’re playing it or the fact that it’s in Indiana Polis. I’m just excited about being in one.” Eli had become the first quarter back in NFL history to win five play-off games on the road.
The Giants vs. the New England Patriots, Coughin vs. Belichick, Eli vs. Brady. Actually it’s not really like something new. That was the 2007 season all over again. It makes the team doesn’t predict to much about the challenge, they just consider the Patriots’ have-known reputation.
Giants defensive end, Osi Umenyora said this about the Patriots, “ It’s awesome and we look forward to the challenge. They are a great football team. They have always been a great football team. We are looking forward to it, and it’s going to be great game.” This is also about the returning of the coach, Tom Coughlin. Osi asked his coach,” Have you thought about how this is coming down? Do you realize that this is scary because of the way it is coming about?” but Coughlin didn’t want to go there. “I’m trying to fight it.”
“ Everything that happened (then) is happening all over again.” Osi added,” I’m sure it will be tremendous copy. For the two of us matching up again, resuming the 2007/2008 battle.”
We can say they are similar, but it doesn’t mean the outcome is going to be the same. Nothing guaranteed.
