There was no stopping that 1986 Giants team. They were 14-2 that year. They had an excellent quarterback, a very good running back and most of all, a dominant 3-4 defense with Bill Bellichick as the coordinator. They were similar to the 1985 Chicago Bears.
Every team that lost the NFC championship game from 1983-1986 made it to the SB the following year. 49ers, Bears, Giants, Redskins.
