If Vick is on, Atlanta might give them a better game than that! Right now Cleveland is hot...where it came from, no one knows.

Wild Card Predictions GB 27 Atlanta 13 Giants 17 49ers 13 Pittsburgh 24 Cleveland 10 Jets 27 Indy 14 Two weeks from now-- Eagles 24 Giants 13 The obvious benefit of McNabb playing a game on a broken leg and throwing 4 Tds. <<Offensive coordinator Brad Childress said that game taught McNabb that he can be as dangerous in the pocket as he is running out of it. ``He learned that he could sit back and pick you apart that way,'' Childress said. ``I think it bodes well for him because he can play a couple different ways now. He can play that way, sit in the pocket and know where his checkdowns are and know when to get the ball out of his hands. And still not everybody has the ability to hurt you with their feet, and he has that, too. I think he learned how to play the game a different way that day.'' McNabb was supposed to miss six-to-eight weeks, and it will have been eight since the injury when the Eagles play their first playoff game against Atlanta, San Francisco or the New York Giants on Jan. 11 or 12. McNabb said he could have played this week if the Eagles didn't have a first-round bye.>>

RN i got to love this for Herman Edwards,it has been a long time since the "Miracle at the MeadowLands":) Max <<CAREER ACCOMPLISHMENTS First African-American head coach of a New York professional football team. Led the Jets to a 10-6 record and a playoff berth in his inaugural season as head coach. While serving as Tampa Bay’s assistant head coach/defensive backfield coach, Edwards helped the secondary become one of the NFL’s top-ranked units. As an assistant head coach/defensive coordinator with Tampa Bay, Edwards helped steer the Buccaneers to the 1999 NFC Championship Game. In four of Edward’s five seasons with Tampa Bay, the club’s defense finished in the NFL’s top-10 in passes defended. A former standout defensive back for the Philadelphia Eagles, Edwards is known for his game-winning play, known as the “Miracle at the Meadowlands.” Edwards is the first coach from the NFL’s Minority Coaching Fellowship to become an NFL Head Coach.>> hey maybe that wild day in the MeadowLands in 1978 was a sign Edwards would get his real glory at the Meadowlands years later. I still to this day remember my wild excitement and total disbelief at how stupid the Giants were that day--maybe the dumbest call in football history.
