The 2008 New York Giants enjoyed a dominant regular season, finishing with a 12-4 record and clinching the NFC East title for the first time since 2005. Coming off their Super Bowl XLII victory, the team showcased a powerful "Earth, Wind and Fire" rushing attack featuring Brandon Jacobs, Derrick Ward, and Ahmad Bradshaw, while a formidable defense led the league in several categories. The season was highlighted by a strong 11-1 start and the selection of seven players to the Pro Bowl. A two-time Super Bowl champion and the 250th overall pick in the 2007 NFL Draft, Ahmad Bradshaw was a gritty running back for the New York Giants who recorded over 4,900 career rushing yards and scored the game-winning touchdown in Super Bowl XLVI.
