Giants football gameday -- NFC CHAMPIONSHIP Edition!!!!

Johnny you ask, are the Giants going to win?

We'll get to that. Johnny would imagine that after you've won a few Super Bowls like the Giants that losing another isn't the end of the world like it would be for say us Browns fans. You know, you've got those warm and fuzzy memories of Phil McConkey and Mark Bavaro, Phil Simms, and beating the unperfect Pats. So just winning today and getting to have your team talked about at length for two weeks is way beyond your expectations of September.

But are they going to win?

Eli is the better QB by far today. He will also face his first great defense today at Candlestick. No turnovers, manage the game if you have to. The more points the Giants score the more pressure to make a mistake grows on unproven Alex Smith. Every point, every seemingly meaningless early field goal increases the chances Smith will screw up. Smith too is facing his toughest defense of the playoffs. We don't think the 49ers will come close to 36 points today.

Dumbass, are they going to win?

Speaking of unproven, Jim Harbaugh ladies and gentlemen. While Tom Coughlin is as predictable as a Swiss watch Harbaugh is impetuous at times. Those big moments in a game can make a legend or have you answering uncomfortable questions at the post-game presser. Until Mr. Harbaugh leads his team to a Super Bowl we'll take Abe Simpson in this one.

Dammit Johnny, are they goi-----

Here's the X-factor....Johnny's wife is a 49ers fan. For a prediction that has no real bearing on the outcome, sorry Giants fans, homefront harmony shall reign supreme.

San Francisco 49ers 26
New Jersey Giants 24
