I never feel confident about their chances. As soon as I start to feel confident, they'll fuck something up. This is the life of a Giants fan. They are pretty hot and cold this season. And Eli is not a strong enough quarterback yet to bring them back consistently if they get down (though he had some good games in the early-mid part of the season).
The only thing that makes me feel slightly less neurotic is the fact that an even more angst-ridden Giants fan will be watching the game with me on Sunday. We couldn't fly to the playoff game to watch it live because the only time we saw them live this year, they were spanked by San Diego. We must watch the game somewhere that we have a better viewing record, I have been told.

They may be playing at home, but I'm not feeling good about the outcome. I don't think their injury-depleted defense is up to the task and why (oh, why, bilmore, why?) did
Umenyiora have to open his big mouth. Sure he and Strahan are dominant players at their position, but why bait Carolina?
With good blocking and patience (for example that first TD against the Raiders on New Year's Eve?) Tiki can break for the end zone on any play. Plaxico and Amani are always a threat, but Eli hasn't proven that he can deliver the ball with accuracy on a consistent basis. I'm hoping he has a good day (like the KC game).
For the record, I want Jacksonville to beat the Pats. I can't stand the Patriots.
