Don't forget that the Giants opened the season 0-2 and allowed 80 points in those two losses, at the time the worst in the league. In the third game of the season, they trailed Washington 17-3 at halftime. At that moment the thought that the Giants could win the Super Bowl was incomprehensible. They looked like a team that was about to lose nearly all of their games.

To make that kind of comeback, to win 11 straight games on the road, to be trailing 14-10 with less than three minutes to go, even a cynic would have to call their season magical.
