Lawrence Tynes Boots 49ers in NFC Championship

     The Giants have done it again. They went into Green Bay last week and came out victorious. Today Eli led his troops into the rainy city of San Francisco and the end result was identical. Now New York will head to Indianapolis for Super Bowl XLVI where they will face the New England Patriots.
     Eli Manning put on another show for his supporters. He completed 32 of his 58 passes and managed to gain 316 yards through the air. Eli threw to two unlikely candidates for touchdowns: Mario Manningham and Bear Pascoe. Add in the threat of Victor Cruz and you have the recipe for the 49ers' downfall.

     Sloppy play during crucial moments ended the 49ers season. It was a Kyle Williams fumble that put the Giants in excellent position to end the game. Lawrence Tynes kicked a 31 yard field goal to give the Giants the win and send them to Lucas Oil Stadium. After the game Tynes had this to say,

"I had dreams about this last night. It was from 42, not 31, but I was so nervous today before the game just anticipating this kind of game. I'm usually pretty cool, but there was something about tonight where I knew I was going to have to make a kick. Hats off to Eli, offense, defense. Great win."

The NFC champion Giants will take on the AFC champion Patriots, an fans are expecting a great matchup similar to when the two teams met in 2008 for Super Bowl XLII. The Super Bowl will be played in two weeks, on February 5, 2012.
