Just a little something to remember. It is conceivable that we could get a similar result this Sunday!

EAST RUTHERFORD, New Jersey (Reuters) - The Carolina Panthers used a crushing defense and a rugged running game to rout the New York Giants 23-0 in a NFC wild card game on Sunday.

Dominating both sides of the ball, Carolina controlled the clock for nearly 43 minutes and got a pair of touchdowns from receiver Steve Smith.

I remember those days well. Leading up to that game I frequented one of the Giants' message boards and they were cocky as hell. They gave us ZERO respect before that game (the fans). Fast forward to today and that same Giants message board aren't being nearly as dismissive of our team as they were then.

i have little reason to believe we can't come out with the same results.

they have a better team than they had then but we are much better than then as well.

our team is hungry and has an insatiable appetite. their team is hungry because it is starving to death. survival of the fittest. it doesn't matter how desperate a starving animal is if they are in a life or death struggle with a much healthier carnivore who is just as hungry. the stronger one will prevail.

We should be as humble right now.

Agreed.

I worked with a humble Giants fan. I remember going up to him after last year's Superbowl and telling him how proud and excited I was of the Giants for beating the unbeaten Patriots*** in the Superbowl.

He works for another company now and I ran into him Tuesday. He said this was the first time he was every pulling for the Giants to lose. He wants the NFC game in Charlotte in hopes he can get tickets and watch the Giants come here and win it.

He said he has a lot of friends that would come down from NY to try to get tickets for the game.

And he said it would be hard for many teams to beat the Giants twice, once in a late regular season game, and then beat them again in the playoffs.

I agreed.
