To quote Kevin Bacon in Animal House, "All is well!" "All is well!" while he is being stampeded by panic stricken people who know that things are not so good.
The Giants just didn't have it against he Cardinals, and laid a stinker at the Meadowlands, 24-17.

Overall, the Giants turned the ball over four different times on the night.
As for Arizona, they came out punch for punch with the Giants. Down 7-0, Chris "Beanie" Wells took off for a 13 yard touchdown to tie the game at seven a piece. Once Big Blue grabbed a 14-7 lead, the Cardinals answered almost immediately. The Cards put together a five play 51 yard drive in the final minute before halftime to set up a Niel Rackers field goal to cut the deficit to four.
Then in the third quarter, the Cards took the lead for good. Tim Hightower's one yard run put Arizona on top 17-14. The Giants never answered. Manning threw an interception on the following possesion to set the Cardinals up at the Giants 20. From there Kurt Warner hit Jason Wright for the six yard touchdown to give Arizona a 24-14 lead.
The Giants had a chance to tie this game at 24, but Manning's final pass was intercepted by Antrel Rolle to end the game. Box score.
