It's just something that seems to occur a lot when these two teams meet.

I agree, when he fumbled I knew the Giants were in trouble. One thing that was never really mentioned and kind of ironic was that Vick fumbled on that last long run he had when he dove forward. Nobody touched him and the ball was out sitting on his side. A Giants player grabbed the ball, but they blew the play dead. It was the same thing that Manning did in the last game. There was no reason to blow that play dead. I think I watched 4 or 5 QB's dive forward going to the ground yesterday. They need to change that rule about sliding before a QB gets really hurt and say a QB going to the ground is down and can't be hit.
