18-0

History is rolling along and in two weeks will have a chance at perfection.
The Chargers hung in there for most of the game. It was a lot closer than the blow out I thought it would be.

The Giants really controlled most of their game with the Packers and thanks to some Bret Favre interceptions, typical of his career at crucial moments, Eli Manning is going to the Super Bowl to face the team that beat them in the last game of the regular season.

The Patriots now join two other teams that have won eighteen games in a season. The Bears and the 49ers both went 18-1.

Eli Manning showed a lot of poise in his play yesterday. Jacobs ran the ball pretty hard, Plaxico Burris had an outstanding game versus Al Harris, they earned the game all the way around. They out played Green Bay at Green Bay which rarely happens. They have now repeated what the Pittsburgh Steelers did a couple of years ago when they went on the road for three straight games and won their way into the Super Bowl.

Any team can beat any other team on any given day. That is one of the founding principles of the NFL. If things go right I would give the Giants a chance for sure. I believe that the Patriots will be at their best this game though. They will have two weeks to be focused for the G-Men whom they recently played. The Giants played a great if not perfect game last time they faced off and the Patriots had a ton of mistakes and still won.

It should be a good game but again I predict the Pats to prevail and be the first team to go 19-0 in a single season.
