After both teams had a devastating lost last week,  they meet sunday night, in another Classic NFC EAST division game, NEW YORK Giants  was playing to win the NFC east  which they still won but not by their own merits,  they won this because DALLAS Cowboys  lost to Pittsburgh Steelers.  Now the Giants are playing to get home field advantage throughout the playoffs, while Dallas is playing for a wild-card spot.

New York was a different team with Plaxico Burress out and a late game injury to running back Brandon Jacobs, the team was out of sync, and didn’t look like a championship team,  not  until a late game touchdown, on the way of the hurry-up offense that they look like a championship team, but too little,  too late, for the final result .   Giants defense had to deal with a charged-up Brian Westbrook and a desperate Philadelphia Eagles, that held Eli Manning to only,  to stay in hunt for a wild-card spot.  Dallas is a small 3 point favorite at home, that is nothing , but with a banged-up team Giants will try to keep pace.  Dallas faced a league leading defense in Pittsburgh that never let up and eventually gave the team an advantage in the last quarter of the game, Dallas knows their future and they must win to a division rival Giants,  that is also looking for a win in order to get a first round by and home field advantage throughout the play-offs.  Look for this game to be hard hitting, all out brawl.  I predict that the Giants will win this game to have a chance to recover players later on
