Eli Manning is a two time Super Bowl Champion and MVP, but what makes him so great?

Eli Manning hooked up with Mario Manningham for an enormous 38-yard completion on the sidelines.  The catch began a Super Bowl winning drive by the New York Giants.

In yet another absolute classic, the New York Giants have won Super Bowl XLVI...Holy Sh-

In this edition of our Super Bowl Preview, we break down the game's match ups, unit for unit.

From 0-1, to 6-2, to 7-7, to Super Bowl XLVI.  It's been a heck of a roller-coaster ride, and one that's worth a look heading into the big day.  There's a time and a place to talk about the game itself - it's next week right here on 1045theteam.com - but for now, let's just look at how in God's name we got here.

The New York Giants are headed to Super Bowl XLVI.  The New York Giants are headed to Super Bowl XLVI.  The New York Giants are headed to Super Bowl XLVI.  I swear to God, one of these times it'll sink in.

In the throes of some kind of inexplicably magical run, the New York Giants roll into San Francisco the hottest team in professional football.  Winners of four straight, they look to extend that streak to five, win the NFC Championship game and head to the Super Bowl...Surprised?

Yesterday the Giants leader had to leave practice early because of an illness.  According to the Giants Eli is suffering from a stomach bug.

Eli Manning's prayers were answered when his 37-yard Hail Mary heave to the end zone was caught by Hakeem Nicks for a touchdown.

Hail Mary!  The New York Giants have gone into Lambeau Field and beaten the mighty Green Bay Packers.  Boom.

The New York Giants went to Lambeau Field and took down the Green Bay Packers in the NFL Playoffs yet again.  Big Blue beat the 15-1 Packers 37-20 to earn a trip to the NFC Championship Game.

And here.  We.  Go.  One week after demolishing the Atlanta Falcons, the New York Giants will travel to Lambeau Field and try to stay alive in the chase for the Lombardi Trophy.
