Can we still host the NFCCG?

That wouldn't be ironic at all.

It would be ironic because even though homefield playoff advantage was on the line, we'd win it anyway and there'd be no difference between having won and having lost on sunday. we'd play our first playoff game at home, and a giants loss would mean we'd play our second playoff game - the nfccg - at home. that's all our playoff games.

that would be very ironic.

Apparently not. The original use of the word, and the two explanations of what would be ironic were both wrong.

Irony has to be the most misunderstood concept in the english language.

noted.

wanna discuss the topic at hand with the rest of the grammar mortals?

Just three.

1. Win against the Saints.

2. Win against our playoff opponent.

3. Giants lose against their playoff opponent.

OR,

1) lose against the Saints, and enter playoff as a five seed.

2) Win the first two playoff ganes as 5 seed, 6 seed does the same.

3) Host 6th seed in NFCCG.

This would have happened in '05 if Washington didn't lose in the division round. However, I much prefer your scenario.

    • I get what you are saying. I'm just saying we made it to the win, we should have a bit of class and not dogpile on the QB because his stat line wasn't great. His stat lines weren't great for almost his entire pro career, but this time, we got a win. Give him a breather.  The team cleared the bar. In the end, that's all that matters. Do it enough times and well, good things happen.  We've shat the bed enough times with good-ish QB play. It's not like we've been regularly to the playoffs even with our best performing QBs over the years. Heck, Matt Stafford was a helluva QB in Detroit for a long time with nothing to show for it. Steve Bartowski was a great QB back in the day, but in 20 years of watching I saw one playoff game for the Falcons. Heck, even Dan Marino spent most of his illustrious career on a lousy Dolphins team.  And yet, Tampa's first Superbowl ring was with the esteemed Trent Dilfer at the helm. Sometimes it goes like that. 
    • I don't care what they tell me. Its what they actually do that matters. Coaches and GM's say crap all the time to keep fan interest. They are always trying to sell you something. 
    • But you have to separate the 2 things in order to move forward.  Its okay to enjoy winning and its also okay to be critical of what is happening.  Coaches do it why cant we?   Also they have to be thinking next off season, next year all in real time.  They are applying what is working, where help is needed and how to get better and make plans for that.   I am weirdly confident that Dan and Dave are seeing what we are seeing and will adjust.   The wildcard however are the teppers
