Is this a definition of cherry picking

Coasted to a win? No, they didn't.
And they BARELY beat Dallas twice, they didn't manhandle them. This Giants team isn't something to fear. Eli is still playing like bad Eli......and the defense isn't bailing him out.
He will make the HOF because of two rings the defense gifted him with. But outside of that he has no place in the Hall.
If the Giants make it past the first game I'll be surprised. I just don't see THIS Giants team comparing to past ones. They aren't particularly hot, they have no run game......if you can shut down OBJ that's pretty much the ballgame.
Tom Brady had a really really great game once. He's a HOF lock. ~Typical NYer rationale~Dont ignore context of a discussion when you "cherry pick" parts of it and paint it with a brush
I know its a Boston pastime
Actually the credit goes to the D, RW and Beastmode. Oline not so much.Solid enough to get them to their second straight SB and one yard from repeating as Champs
Shhhh Dirt still thinks the Skankees are relevant.Actually, that O-line had it's issues masked by RW's ability to scramble and Lynch's ability to run through would be tacklers. Lynch got hit in the backfield more times than most care to remember. The mid 2000's line was good. This one has been mediocre, turning to terrible now.
Is that better or worse than 5 yard curl patterns to Edelman that turn into 77 yard Tds?
My God, they're multiplying...Don't forget about me.
From an outsider viewpoint... Both offenses have the firepower to go the distance, but a balance needs to be established. Once either offense leans too heavily on the passing game it seems like they unravel. It will be tough for the Giants to establish a ground game in this one, but they should view it as a priority. Like you said, it might be a low scoring affair so winning the TOP will be crucial. But I could also see this game boiling down to turnovers. Should be a good game!Haha!.....Im a little less optimistic than my Alt ID.........Its unfortunate we have to play in the one place against the one team i most wanted to avoid in the NFC playoffs this year......Its always winnable when you have a defense playing on the level the Giants are now, and I would fully expect that they slow down the Packers offense......On the flipside, even an average defense like the PAckers, especially in frigid weather, can slow this Giants offense (Odell).....I do sense Paul Perkins can emerge as one of those postseason heroes no one ever heard of, that seem to come along once every couple of years.....We will see, I sense a 17-13 type game either way
As far as Eli in the HOF, thats pretty much a lock at this point, and Im not the biggest Eli supporter...But 2 rings, and a Top 6 or 7 passer all time, he's a lock
I think Beckham can exploit the Packers secondary a bit as well if Eli has time in the pocket. I think the Giants have a shot against GB but it is a tough out. At any rate, I think this may end up being the best game of WC weekend. The Giants have been good taking the ball away this year but Rodgers rarely turns it over so it could be interesting to watch.From an outsider viewpoint...

Nope.I think the Giants will play Green Bay if Green Bay wins tonight. If that is the case I don't think the Giants stand much of a chance.
fuck offGearing up for another post season run ... looking for #3..
Can anyone stop him?
Giant's had nothing to play for today and coasted to another victory...
Clicking at the right time of the year...
The Manning legacy continues..
Another fine performance by Eli in the playoffs. HE has been bounced in the first game more times than he has one but he is some GOAT playoff qb.
