The problem with the we beat the Super Bowl champion logic is that this has happened even way back in 2001. That's exactly why the whole season is a better predictor than one or even two games.
It means nothing and honestly it's loser talk.
It's kinda embarrassing to see some Skins players on Twitter bragging they swept the Giants this year.
The difference between drafting #6 and #32 says it all.

I think this game signifies the importance of getting a franchise qb. Which is why I don't want to settle for Orton/Tannehill, or whatever pair of 2nd rate qb's is available. I mean when was the last time a team won a Super Bowl without a franchise guy at qb? Baltimore with Trent Dilfer? The NFL today is set up for elite quarterbacks to succeed, not just in the regular season but in the SB. If Luck or RG3 is that guy, than we need to go get him. No more settling for 2nd best.
You mean like we did with Jason Campbell? No wait...Heath Shuler? wait....you mean Patrick Ramsey.
See, that's the thing, you don't know who's going to hit or who's going to miss. If you throw a ton of picks away, your team will continue to be shitty. If you keep your picks and your QB fails, your team will still be very competitive and you could do well. (49ers)

Pretty much their whole team is better not just Eli.. folks are crazy if they think Manning would make us a true sb team with our offense
I personally think the Giants have underperformed the past 5 years. They've had too much talent to have the records they've had. (much like the Cowboys) I thought they would be shit this year because of all their injuries and lack of FA movement in the OL/WR, but Cruz broke through big time on the WR front. I think they got healthy and hot at the right time.

The Giants have the edge at wide receiver (just barely)
Just barely? Seriously? Nicks, Cruz, and Manningham are in an elite class compared to Moss, Gaffney, and whatever scrub we rolled out as our 3rd wideout this season (not counting Hankerson since he really only saw plenty of time in one game this season before he got hurt. Hankerson is the only one out of those three with a long term future here too.

Our defense is better. Our run game is significantly better. Pass protection and special teams are close. And I'll take our TEs.
It's really Eli and the WRs.

We beat the Giants twice this year, by a combined score of 51 to 24!!!
I had to remind him who's drafting #6 and who'll be collecting super bowl trophies/rings. Told him to set his goals a bit higher.

Our LB's are better, too.
