Sounds like

there could be some bad conditions. The roof to Reliant Stadium must be open since the Hurricane came and ruined it. They are having heavy downfall and while there is a draining system, it looks like it might not be very good.

We’ll see. The Bears need to go out and win (against a team we can’t overlook) and hope the rest just plays out.

I would think Coughlin would rather play the Bears than the Vikings again in the playoffs.

Honestly, we’re more inconsistent and have a lot less weapons on offense. So I say the Giants are in it to win it.
