The contents of this product were not clear so let me tell you that this collection starts with the last game of the season loss to the Patriots, has each playoff game and the Super Bowl complete w/o commercials. This is better than I hoped for at a great price. A must for diehard NYG fans.

Just bought this today, and it is worth every penny spent. I'm not a huge football fan, but these 5 games have not only made a Giants fan, but also a football fan as well. The game against Green Bay being my personal favorite. My only complaint is that I would like to have seen the pregame and postgame comments. But otherwise I highly recommend this for any football, GIants, or sports fan. Each game is full of emotion and smashmouth football

Pros:
This is a great product if you're looking to have the last regular season game, all the playoff games, and the super bowl, then this is the DVD set for you!
Cons:
There are a few reasons why I am VERY disappointed in this product...
1) It has not been released in Hi Definition Blu-Ray, which in this day in age is rediculous. Especially since the game was originally produced and broadcast in HD!
2) On the DVD's, this format is 4:3 (Standard Definition). I could see if they released this set on DVD with the format being 16:9 so that a Blu-Ray player or HDTV set could upscale it properly to fill the screen. With this DVD set being in 4:3, you'll still have the black bars on the sides.
3) Quality...Since I'm in the television industry, maybe I'm more picky than most, but when I buy a DVD set like this...I expect quality. Again, I am very disappointed. You can tell that the games were recorded in a deck because you can see the VITC data at the top of the screen...(VITC=Vertical Interval Time Code)...which is rediculous. The other thing is that since a standard movie on DVD is approximately 2 hours long and an NFL game is 3 - 4 hours long, the makers of this DVD set obviously had to compress the video beyond belief to make each game fit on a single DVD. Again, this compromised the quality of the video.
4) The team introduction videos were cut out of the DVD that has the Super Bowl on it. It only shows the teams taking the field at the beginning. Additionally, the half time show was not included on the Super Bowl DVD either.

As far as I know, this is the first time the NFL has released entire games for sale to the public. This is long overdue, but it's readily apparent that the NFL doesn't understand its own product (or, at least, how to market its own product). It's a bare-bones production that delivers exactly what was promised - the original television broadcasts of the Giants' playoff run - and little else (more on that below).
The chapters are broken down by quarter, instead of by drive. With each quarter lasting about 30 minutes of air-time, fans searching for individual plays will have to spend an inordinate amount of time on FF/REW. This is particularly problematic considering that this entire playoff run was defined by a single, spectacular play which fans will presumably want to skip to directly.
The only special feature is an uninspired commentary track by Michael Strahan on the Super Bowl disc. While sporadically insightful and entertaining, it's puzzling why they decided to feature commentary from only a single player that necessarily saw the field less than 50% of the time. It would have made much more sense for the commentary to feature either multiple players from both offense & defense, or coaches, analysts (a Jaworski commentary track would have been phenomenal). Alternately, they could have synchronized the original radio broadcasts from both the home and host teams, just to provide some variation at minimal production costs.
What's especially puzzling is that the market for this disc is presumably not the casual fan, but the armchair analysts seeking more insights into this most improbable of playoff runs. It's a step in the right direction for the NFL, but nevertheless a disappointment.
