Complete hypothetical: Would you trade 2011 for 2008?

victory would be great, but in 2011, the Giants were the only NFC east team to make it into the playoffs so that was funny because all the rivals were done with. I don't think that I'd trade 2011 for 2008 because I did like seeing Cruz, Nicks (at he time) , and JPP earn their rings and wouldn't want to take it away from them, hypothetically, being that I can trade years back and forth. But no...not at all. I went to the Falcons game and that game and the ECF game 6 Rangers vs Montreal was one of my favorite games ever.

was trash. And the Eagles benefited from no Plaxico and didn't even belong on the field that day. They just played the Giants at the right day and time and minus Burres, the offense looked like shit right from the start. The first interception Eli Manning threw from the back of the endzone had to be one of the worst throws I've ever seen in person.

LMFAO...DK you're on fire between this and pawning radar the other day..

The main reason is that I experienced 2011 with my kids who were too young in 2007.

I understand the pull of back to back championships...It would have certainly cemented The 2007-2008 team as one of the greatest ever.

But 2011 cemented the legacy of Eli and TC. The SF game will be looked back as one of Eli's signature games. He got the shit kicked out of him....Those images of him pulling turf from his helmet are among my favorite memories of Eli.

Can you imagine the hand wringing around here if we where 7 years removed from a SB?

Beating the Jets on Cristmas eve is one of my favorite wins,it took Rex and co. out of the playoffs and sent us into an all or nothing game against Dallas.The Dallas game was classic as well,the biggest game in the new stadium.How sweet that was beating Romo,Jerry Jones etc...sending them home and giving us our first playoff game in the new building.Now Atlanta,the stadium was rocking that day and we shut them down.On to 15-1 Green Bay,what a game the Giants played,perfect,took them apart.Championship game in Frisco,one of the toughest games we ever played.The Giants and Niners have a long playoff history and this would be the second time we take a championship game from them in thier house that they thought they coundn't lose.Priceless.
Super Bowl XLVI Rematch with N.E.,the strange similarity to four years ago.We get out in front then fall behind and its not looking good,but we fight back and have another one of the greatest plays in SB history,and pull off the win.
Eli MVP again.
So again,No I would not trade this one for anything

The run in 2011 was great, but if they had finished off 2008, not only would they have repeated, but they would have beaten Philly in the playoffs AND the Steelers (for the 2nd time that season) in the Super Bowl.

Going 14-4 against that schedule to back up the win over the 18-0 Patriots in 2007 would have put the Giants in a different class.

All things being equal, we'd be sucking for 6 straight years, and, in one perspective, would be no different the Patriots with their early SBs and a drought since '05.

Was one of the best seasons ever played by a QB in the NFL. It's a shame most people (even Giants fans) don't realize it.

Well luckily for you, 2007 isn't being discussed in this scenario.
