Exactly. People need to keep things in perspective. And without Plaxico Burress hauling in Eli's passes throughout the 2007, we weren't going anywhere near that Super Bowl.
Not to mention if Eli didn't step up in 2007, he might have been out of a job the next year. Remember, Tom Coughlin had to answer two questions before the '07 season, how was he going to better relate to his players, and how was he going to get Eli on track.

Do we all love Eli that much due to all these Eli threads?
Giants fan since 525 BC.
The fact that those two post-season's were pretty magical as Krunch stated. Especially 2007.
We're Giants fan. That type of **** doesn't happen to us. It happens against us.
All these 4th quarter comebacks are a blast, but the reality is that if you always need to count on coming back, you really aren't that good to begin with.
....and i thought this place was nutty during the season.
