the record sucks b/c of the FREAKIN NY FOOTBALL GIANTS. remove those two Giants games we're .500 w/a Super Bowl win.

you all realize not only has Eli and the Giants whipped the Packers twice to prevent Super Bowl appearances, but they also defeated bill belicheck and tom brady...once to end an undefeated season!

i just feel we got whipped by a better football team twice at home...they wanted this last win more than GB, the Giants were just more physical, and deserved that win.

So I guess the reason for the record is the Packer's can't beat the Giants!

4 years later, 🇦🇷 wanted to be there but didn't keep his cool. He was unusually erratic. Our receivers forgot how to catch a pass. Our defenders forgot how to tackle. Once again, DD came to play. Just the rest of the team didn't.

The Giants deserved both wins.

This needs to change in 2012. Maybe for morale reasons, we're better off limping into the Playoffs with a chip on our shoulder rather than going in with arrogance.

lol the Packers defenders forgot how to tackle before the playoffs. I wonder if having less padded practices effects tackling? Although, last season they didn't tackle too either did they?

100% agree on limping in with a chip, than having the arrogance of 'just gotta show up' we seen the last few games they played.

OK, they couldn't tackle all season long but when we really needed them to tackle in the Playoffs, they were even worse.

Happy now?

We were taught form tackling and when you're going against guys who got you by 100 pounds and taller than you by six inches ... You fucking tackle exactly how coach says to! lol

When I say the tackling is appalling, I'm referring to plays like Charlie Peprah on Hakeem Nicks in the Divisional playoff game in the 2011 season. That is not how you tackle. He could have wrapped up. He could have put his arms on him. He chose to give him a cute little shoulder bump instead. Guess what, BOOM 66 yard (or something) touchdown.

If you're going to employ a bend but don't break defense, you gotta tackle, period. Right?

I agree I have been screaming at the horrible tacking for years. I am to the point that I now blame the coaches. back in the day if you screwed up you found your a$$ on the bench. Today the coach may give you a frowny face look from the sidelines but they do nothing. If you don't do your job get them off the field. When TWill is replaced by Pat Lee and it is obvious Lee isn't as good. It is not Lees fault it is Williams' fault and everyone especially teammates would know Lee is getting burnt because Williams did not do his job.
