I like how you go from blaming Green Bay to blaming the officials. Never once giving the Giants any credit.
That's cuz teh Giants r teh suxzor.
Actually the Giants played a pretty good game.
My take on why Green Bay lost.
While ultimately the Favre interception was the ball game, it's not why they lost.
They lost because Harris couldn't cover Burris.
They lost because the Giants shut down the running game.
They lost because Manning flat-out outplayed Favre. He made the passes when he had to. Favre did not.
In the over time period, all Favre has to is get within field goal range. he couldn't do it.
They lost because the Giants defense was up to the task, Green Bay's was not.
Case in point.
3rd quarter. Giants have the ball. 3rd and 9. Negated interception/pass interference. 1st down Giants.
3rd and 5. Roughing the passer. 15 yards. 1st down. Giants go on to score touch down take the lead.
