This was a shocking upset when the New York Giants Defeated the Green Bay Packers 37-20 in the 2011-2012 NFC Divisional round of the playoff on the way to their victory in super bowl 46 against the patriots for the second time in 4 years. The 2011-2012 Green Bay Packers have been the only team in nfl history to go 15-1 then lose their first playoff game, in other words, 15-1 and done.
Look at the blocking up front for Eli. Man those were the days
Patrick's Crazy Place Amen
Yep! Easy to see what the Giants main issue has been the last 7 years, O LINE!
@Mark Mace it was obvious when mcadoo threw a wrench in his iron man record he stopped caring alot. He would drop down to the ground a lot before pressure got there because years of it just made him say fuck this shit
100% facts. I miss watching Diehl and Seubert lock down the left while Snee and Kareem opened the holes on the right
I don't know what you're talking about. The Giants offensive line was terrible that year. McKenzie and Diehl were way past their prime. The only reason why they even look remotely good was because the Green Bay defense was utter garbage that year and couldn't generate a pass rush to save it's life. It's ultimately what did them in.
Doesn't anybody still love that old fox scoreboard
Noah Jones I do
Noah Jones I think it was one of Fox's best. They change it every 2 years or so. The infamous 28-3 scoreboard from 2014-16 was similar but I liked the touch of having the logos in the background.
Totally agree, I hate the one they had this year. This one was the best.
Noah Jones I loved that for baseball in 2011-mid 2013. It was eye popping and just a great design
I do its better than 2018
The refs were on a mission to ruin the Giants but it didint work.
I hear that the refs screwed the giants on that fumble by the packers and said he was down wtf was that wtf were the refs looking at. If the giants lost that game it would of been the refs fault just like the refs screwed the Steelers and Texans against the pats when the pats were suppose to lose but refs bail out Brady and belichick again but I try and tell pats masshole fans that and they don't see it cause new England pats fans are the most cockiest biased hypocritical fans ever going all the way back to 2001 snow job against the raiders.
There always against NY it’s personal refs suck
The score should have been 37-6 Giants. And the very next year the Packers wanted revenge and the Giants beat them 38-10.
you seen the giants - panthers game earlier this year?
count the flags at the least, and it's 47 - 6
This game has to be the biggest upset in NFL playoffs history u don't see a 9-7 team blowin out a 15-1 team especially when their playing away
And with the refs at their side

Xavier Vega Being surrounded by packer fans, all I heard all season was how the pack were going to easily repeat as champions. To watch this game and see the outrageously bad calls going against the Giants made me realize that indeed the fix was in. Oh, but that joyous Giant team rose to the occasion and curb stomped this celebrated 15-1 team, and after they did that, I jumped on their bandwagon and rode it all the way to their beautiful victory over my SECOND most despised team, the New England Patriots. Man, 2011 was a good year.
Giants: 37 Packers: 6 Refs: 14
as a Patriots fan, i have so much respect for this Giants team. They really proved that it doesn’t matter how well you play during the regular season, what matters is how you play when it truly matters.
i hope its the sam this year
It’s ironic because the year before the packers also enter as a 6th seed with a 10-6 record and won the superbowl.
shutup fairy, no one asked for nor cares for your respect. Go suck your mothers teet
should go down as one of the greatest playoff upsets ever, considering the Giants had to play 2 teams in one stadium (packers, referees) and still beat both of them by 17!

Lol, I'm not a Giants fan, but damn. I'm convinced that Tom Coughlin is a genius. Earlier that season, the Giants faced these Packers in Week 13. It was an epic shootout where the Giants lost by 3 points. Game ended 38-35. It's Crazy they went from losing to the Packers at home by 3 to crushing them on their turf in the Playoffs by 17 points. What's even more crazy is how you could compare it to 2007. It's eerily similar to when the Giants faced the Patriots in the regular season and lost 38-35 as well and went on to beat them in the Super Bowl.
This giants receiving core was insane
A lot of people forget that Eli outplayed Aaron Rogers in this game and beat the 15 and 1 Packers.
I never see the Eli haters at videos like these
@@bronzesolomon4453 they stay away from these facts
Rodgers choking
Outplayed ??? Man I counted 6 crucial drops by Rodgers receivers and they fumbled the ball twice on their own side of the field how is that remotely on Rodgers ??
I am a pats fan but I remember watching this game and being in disbelief how obvious they wanted the Packers to win. I'm glad the Giants smashed them.but I also wish they didn't smash us in the SB that year tho 😂
Refs can only do so much. The Packers wern't winning shit this day. Not only fumbling 3 times. Those drops were also brutal. Refs did stink. It didn't matter. Any team that plays like that isn't winning.
When the giants make it to the playoffs they r a different team playing at insane level wow I love my giants
Because it's NEW YORK. They become empowered by the big Apple. They know 1st
We will never see another Giants dynasty like this one. They were truly the greatest underdogs in NFL history. 2007-2012
they were not a dynasty
They didn't make the playoffs consistently but they knew how to make it count when they got in.
It's so blatantly obvious that the referees in this game were out of their ever loving minds, and that said, this has to go down as one of the most improbable victories in NFL history, even more than the Giant's win over the undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl in 2007. To go into Lambeau field and beat a packer team that lost ONE single game all season, AND had a first round bye in the playoffs, and deal with a ridiculously biased referee group, you've climbed and conquered a mountain that so few football teams could have ever done.
Forgive me for stating the obvious, but in addition to all you wrote, to play against the Packers in Green Bay is one of the hardest things to do, especially with a team of this quality. I was NOT expecting the Packers to lose this one.
I am a giants fan but I still have to say superbowl 42 was a lot more impressive than this. Can't put brady to 14 points with Randy moss, Wes Welker and the best offense to ever exist.
Not only did they beat them against all of those odds and obstacles, but they beat them with ease.
How were the referees biased? I didn't see any bad calls here.
Calvin you’re a troll
THIS IS WHEN ELI HAVE A GOOD OFFENSE LINE

They tried to win the packers the game as hard as they could but they still lost
bias is a understatement. Refs were straight out cheating and thats why this win was soooo great. that and the monster season packs had but still wasnt enough.
I have...2009 NFC Championship vs. Aints, total screwjob.
That Hail Mary at the end of the half won them the game. Completely deflating for the Packers defense and the opposite for the Giants offense.
First of all, 8 - 8 giants, beating falcons, going in Lambeau against 15 - 1 packers, then going against the 49ers, and then going against the Patriots again to beat them in the super bowl. most underrated run to the super bowl ever
9-7 Giants......
The Niners lost because that fumble, The Giants were lucky

One of the most underrated Playoff road Victories of all time!🔥💪💪
I agree. I remember when the Ravens (14-2) went up and got demolished by the wild card Titans last year. Though the Giants weren’t a wild card this year, I still find this loss more upsetting (but satisfying for me). And as a Steelers fan (😂) we just came off of losing to the Packers in the 45th super bowl so I was extra happy here.

Or maybe the Giants have had a real QB who steps it up in the playoffs & a defense that doesn't flop in the postseason. Can't put it all on miracles bud. And like the other guy mentioned you just had a crazy miracle happen in the postseason last year & you did nothing with it.

only difference is the packers lost with the refs cheating for them.
The refs tried their absolute hardest to give Green Bay this game as they try to do that every game. If you can’t take advantage of all those terrible calls then your team really is trash
And that's what I don't get either. You go 15-1 in the regular season, you're playing a 9-7 Giants team that should be nowhere near the postseason, and you've got the officiating crew helping you out in every way imaginable. And you still barely put up 20 points. The Packers did the bare minimum to make the game competitive until early in the 4th. That was fucking pathetic by the Packers.
Adrian Martinez exactly! What a total letdown by a sports team until the Tampa Bay Lightning show up in 2019 😂

And the undefeated 1998 Broncos who lost to Kent Graham
And don’t forget the 49Ers team that was on the verge of winning three Super Bowls in a row.
That niners team Coughlin beat was Harbaughs best defense too compared to his other remaining season.

Back in those days, whether the Giants were 10-7 or 9-7 whatever, you didn't want to meet them in the playoffs. Giants gold!
This along with what he did in Jacksonville as their first head coach, Tim Coughlin deserves to be in the Hall of Fame. His best coach season by far was 2007 and 2011. He was excellent
The Giants completely dominated that game from start to finish. They were unstoppable. Just like they were in 2007 of course when they beat the undefeated Pats. During those years, Eli and the Giants were incredible when playing great teams. Nothing to lose for them as complete underdogs every time so they played the game and just took it away from everyone they played. What a great few years for the Giants and their fans!

Giants fan here. Still cannot believe how good the Giants were and how bad the Packers were in this game. This was undoubtedly Eli's best season, and you can see from these highlights how many crucial passes he was putting on the money that were just not a consistent thing for him in the last 5+ years of his career.
Amazing how the NFL stacked it against the Giants in this game with the officiating. Yes, it comes from on top. Just another reason why I do not watch anymore.
I like how Rodgers actually tried to recover the fumble unlike some other QBs.

I've seen worse officiated games than this but this has to be up in my Top 10 worst officiated games. I'm all about my team winning in the interest of fairness and too many times during this game the refs changed the flow and got the Packers at least within striking distance of the game and putting Coughlin in tough situations to challenge or not challenge a call. Things the refs could have clearly controlled but didn't, idk it just left a sour taste in my mouth losing like that.

15-1 lmao straight choked
To be honest they were the most overrated 15-1 team ever. That record was strictly because of Aaron Rodgers's brilliance that season. Their defense was bad all year, they had very little run game to speak of, and the receiving corps had trouble getting seperation. Rodgers had to hold the ball for ridiculous amounts of time for them to get open. (and the refs at Lambeau let the Green Bay o-line get away with murder all year) The one game Rodgers was anything less then lights out the Packers got exposed.
@Random Guy2000 No excuses at all, anyone who actually watched that Packers team knows they weren't nearly as good as their record states. Their defense was ranked butt-naked last all year, with their only saving grace being that they forced turnovers. They had no running game to speak of and got ridiculous amounts of home-cooking from the refs all year. Rodgers had an all-time great year for a QB and covered up A LOT of the team's flaws.
@@xaviervega468 they had so much wr depth it was insane, aside from not having a good running game, they didnt necessarily lack anything, especially offensively.
