Cris Carter's Six Points

Chris Carter breaks down the matchup.
Giants Category Packers Reason
Offense checked The Packers have an explosive running game; one that's hard to take away when you consider their talented passing attack.
Defense checked With Harris and Woodson healthy plus hard-hitting safeties, this is the best secondary in the league.
Special teams checked The Packers didn't kick any FGs on Saturday, but you have to favor their experience in playing in really bad weather.
checked Coaching Tom Coughlin has this team playing extremely well and believing that it should be in the Super Bowl.
Intangibles checked How will the Giants handle bad weather? Late in the season, Manning really struggled in nasty conditions.
Wild card checked Can Strahan and Co. do what the Seahawks didn't – make life uncomfortable for Favre?

Cris Carter says: Packers

I love the feel-good story of Favre getting back to the Super Bowl and trying to go out on top like John Elway.
