On the Giants bandwagon

What an exciting weekend of football in the NFL.

Wildcard weekend did not disappoint.

I do have to admit that I am on the Giants bandwagon right now.The Road Warriors went into Tampa and after a rough first quarter, they completely dominated the Bucs.

Eli Manning won his first playoff game and looked very good in doing so.The fact that he doesn't have to play in New York in the playoffs seems to be a blessing.Maybe everyone will finally get off his back, especially those annoying Barber brothers!!!

It just seems that the Giants are on a mission and I believe they will pull off the upset next week in Big D.(Sorry Lorne Ruben).

They have won 8 games in a row on the road and they haven't lost a road game since week one in Dallas by the score of 45-35.Their defence is a whole lot better now (a league leading 53 sacks) and they will be able to put pressure on Romo and slow down a banged up T.O. if he is able to play.

Here are my conference semi-final predictions :

SATURDAY

PACKERS will beat the SEAHAWKS at Lambeau field.

PATS will win against the JAGUARS in Foxboro.

SUNDAY

COLTS over the CHARGERS at the RCA dome.

GIANTS upset the COWBOYS in Irving.
