Why did it have to end like this?
I can tolerate the fact that the Packers lost to the Giants, what I can't tolerate is the fact that Brett Favre threw the game losing interception. It's pretty sad that when people think of the 2007 season, they won't think of the records Favre broke, but rather that costly interception in over time. It brings back memories of the Divisional round in Philadelphia in which Favre threw the game losing interception in over time as well.
All in all, I'm not disappointed in the season the Packers had, they completely exceeded my expectations, I thought at best they would lose in the wild card round of the play offs, I just wish it wouldn't have ended on such an ugly note. Oh well!
The Giants completely outplayed the Packers at Lambeau, that's all there is to it. The Packers didn't give the game away, but the Giants nearly did. It should have never gone into over time in the first place, but the Giants kicker missed a field goal. I wish he would have made the field goal in regulation, just so Favre wouldn't have thrown that interception, but that's the way the ball bounces.
I'm also not stupid enough to say, "We'll be back next season," because it's hard to get to NFC Championship game in two consecutive years. Who knows?
