Getty ImagesIt’s not that the Packers aren’t good. They are.
But the Giants came off a bye rested, with a point to prove, against a team with half a defense left on the field.
So the Giants’ 31-10 halftime lead was almost predictable.
Whether the Packers offer resistance in the second half remains to be seen, but at the moment, the Giants offense is on a roll. Eli Manning’s thrown a pair of touchdowns, Ahmad Bradshaw has 117 yards from scrimmage, and the Giants defense appears to be confusing the Packers.
Other than an injury to right tackle David Diehl (burner, questionable to return), there isn’t much that you’d call bad news for the Giants.

Why does Crosby get paid? Why?
Anybody else notice MM is starting to look like Andy Reid?
Giants fans classify the news on Diehl as unfortunate, but are thrilled the better Locklear is back out there.
Blow pack blow
Did anyone else notice the Hines ward exchange where he said the giants and packers would meet in the playoffs and was quickly corrected. I knew the NFL was rigged
Quit apologizing for the Packers.
It’s not that the Packers aren’t good… It’s that they’re not as good as everyone in sports media wants to paint them.
Go Giants!
Giants fans are GLAD Dave Diehl is out, trust me.
Good job Giants!
First place Chicago Bears

Yay!
And to think, they’ll be there all the way until the Packers destroy them again the next time they play!
Injuries just catching up with the Packers.
Oh look, BarroomZero and Contrababy are here!
I figured they would be, after all, since their team won’t finish above .500 (again), all they really have is celebrating when the Packers lose (which won’t happen again this year)
At least I can go to bed now, Green Bay doesn’t belong on the same field with the Giants tonight.
Discount double check!
Okay, so you’ve provided the excuse for the Pack giving up 38. But why have they only scored 10?
Wonder what the packers excuse is going to be … We beat ourselves
I’m not sure how good the Packers are. They are the most one dimensional team in the league and their defense even when healthy isn’t anything more than average.
Rodgers is great but apart from him and his numerous receiving weapons the Packers aren’t very dynamic and can only beat you one way which is behind the arm of Rodgers.
Packers excuse is that stash on Rodgers upper lip. He looks like a pedo mug shot and the Giants defense hates child molesters…….
Watch out! Packers fans will start deflecting their anger onto the Vikes, Lions, and Bears, while the Pack will start saying they beat themselves again. This is great lol
Injuries or not, the Packers scoring only 10 has to be upsetting to Packer fans. While the Giants defense CAN be good, it hasn’t looked great in weeks. Guess Phillips makes a huge difference
Vikings fans out in numbers tonight! All three of you at one time!

Who is angry? I just came here to laugh. If you go look at the picks for the week, you’ll see that I was planning on this being a loss.
Whoops.
So does 38-10 count as someone beating you, or you beating yourselves?
So I guess the Packers now KNOW, that the GIANTS were indeed the better team last year, as well as tonight.
Bad spot for pack. Expected them to lose. Heck giants got housed by the begals before the bye.. GB will run the table to the playoffs,get healthy, and win the division.
8 starters out 4 are pro bowlers. This might have an impact.
thetokyosandbuster is even whinier than usual tonight. How’d you like that game guy?
Rodgers went there in the postgame just a few minutes ago. “We (not the score) took ourselves out of the gameplan tonight.”
I still love the guy, but it is getting tougher and tougher to respect these cats when they claim that they only lose when they beat themselves.
Guess my Gmen only get up for top ten teams like 49ers, Packers, Skins(RG III is $$, respect), etc. Steeler games was ours to win , but Manning got distracted, saw Papa in box, lost focus. If we could only take on the lower echelon teams with the same concentration we would be at 10-1 , like Houston and Falcons. Time for Road Warriors like last year !! Run the rest of the season and listen to Jerry Jones spin his Cowgirls song once again.
