49ers 9-28 giants

great game the score is a bit inflated as ali had to force it a bit towards the end but there would be no repeat of his 32 point comeback this time. the difference between the teams was red zone d the 49ers just couldnt get a td.




giants start off well on there first drive with a td pass to manningham however while scoring the td he gets injured and is out for the game

giants 7-0 49ers

49ers go straight down the pitch again and kick 3 red zone troubles would haunt them for the game

1 kick return by Jernigan for the Giants of 105 yds.

Was a good game. The Falcons went up by 14 points but the Giants managed to pull it back. 2 pick 6's really helped the Giants, as well as a KR late in the game. However, as the stats show, the Giants offense was pretty non existent and if it weren't for so many Falcons interceptions it could have been a different game.

Falcons 27 - Packers 39

Crazy game - falcons got very unlucky in 1st quarter, throwing pick 6 on first drive & fumbling around packers 15yd line to give another turnover. Componded by giving up the safety at end of quarter. Managed to score a FG but that was it for 1st.
Highlight of quarter was Grants 77yd run for a TD on first play for Packers (bout only time he was going forward!) 3 - 16 Packers

Second quarter was dominated by the defense - Falcons getting one FG & Packers 2 making it 6 - 22 Packers at half time.

Packers got ball to start second half and made it to 1 yd line but forced into an 18yd FG by rejuvenated Falcons defense.
Falcons offense picked up pace with a lovely 80 yrd pass to White making it 13 -25
Packers offense had no answer for this - but a couple of drives later Ryan throws another interception that goes for 6 towards close of 3rd quarters. Score 13 - 32

Falcons step it up now, and score another long TD by White (54yds) to open 4th
Punts are traded, until Packers pop in a 2yd pass to Finley
Falcons get ball back but cant do a lot with it.
Packers offense get forced deep into own half, and Rodgers fumbles on his own 5yd line to give up the final TD of the game to Falcons.

Final Score - 27 -39 to Packers

Overall a great game - Those pick 6s and that fumble made a huge difference to result. Seriously bad luck.
