Eli Manning will be in the same Pro Bowl as his brother Peyton. History is made! (But how does Matt Ryan feel about Eli's inclusion?) The Giants will send six to Hawaii, including both punter Jeff Feagles and placekicker John Carney. Combined age? 86. Their vaunted defense will have only one representative in Justin Tuck. That seems funny. The Giants' stellar offensive line did get some love. Guard Chris Snee will start, and center Shaun O'Hara will be a reserve.

Believe it or not, the Giants won their first playoff game in seven years 24-14 on Sunday. Down 7-0 and stuffed for -2 yards of offense in the first quarter, New York responded on both sides of the ball, rattling off 24-consecutive points and forcing three turnovers. Brandon Jacobs had two touchdowns and Corey Webster played his best game as a Giant, defending passes and collecting two turnovers. And, New York put a number of questions to rest.

This week we'll find out if last Saturday's game against the Patriots was worth it. If you recall, Tom Coughlin decided not to rest his starters during the loss to the Pats and a couple of players were injured. Based on the latest information, it sounds like Sam Madison is out, while Kawika Mitchell and Shaun O’Hara are questionable at best, so the Giants will have to hope that some of their bench players can step up and fill those holes. In addition, New York faces Jeff “Giant Killer” Garcia, who is 4-1 in his career against the Giants and 2-0 in the playoffs.
