I think one of two things happen tonight against the Giants.
One... we win by a healthy margin - two scores (9+). We click on all cylinders on offense - which we've really only done once or maybe twice this year (Seattle/Buffalo :confused). Rob Ryan gets his unit to back up his talk, and we come out and fluster Eli and make critical stops, create turnovers, etc. We show an impressive win not unlike our win vs the Saints in 2009, and that propels us to a division title and gets everyone talking about how we might be the team to threaten Green Bay in the playoffs.
Or
Two... we lose by two or three scores. The wheels essentially fall off of the wagon. We can't stop the Giants from pressuring Romo with only four. Romo makes some Romo-esque turnovers. Our secondary gets abused by Nicks and Cruz. And Brandon Jacobs runs right over defenders in short yardage situations.
I don't think it's going to be anything but one of the above. I don't think it's going to be a hard fought, classic game that goes down to the wire - won by a last second kick or one team stopping the other from the tying or winning score on the final drive.
It'll be a two-score game in someones favor.
Who's favor? I waver back and forth every ten minutes.
