Here we go again, another Giants trip to Green Bay in the playoffs, invading frigid Lambeau Field as an underdog, facing a legendary quarterback, seeking to legitimize and extend a playoff ride.
In 2007 and again in 2011, it was Tom Coughlin leading the charge, and we all know how it turned out. After the 2007 season, it was the Giants defense making Brett Favre look old, Coughlin’s face nearly cracking in a modern-day Ice Bowl redux, Eli Manning with surgical strikes to Plaxico Burress, and Lawrence Tynes finally ending it in overtime kicking a field goal with a frozen, black-and-purple right foot.
