N.Y. Giants
New England -3

Over/ Under 55-1/2

NYG-WR-Victor Cruz-Probable
NE-TE-Rob Gronkowski-Probable
Lucas Oil Stadium (Indoors)

My head keeps telling me Belichick and Brady will have their revenge. but....

My gut says that the G-men will run run run and their D-line will dominate...

Giants to win outright and the under...
More later,
Tour...

    I would like to see the Giants win, but their secondary is the weak link and nobody better than Brady to expose it. If they can get that all sewed up, I think the Giants will pull it off.

    Brady can expose a weak secondary, if he has all day in the pocket. Get him out of the pocket and rushed, it's a whole different story.

    IMO, the game is on the offensive line for the Pats. If they can hold back the Giants pass rush, they have a good chance of racking up points. If they can't it will be a LONG night for Brady (or a REALLY short one).

    I'm not predicting anything, but if the Giants want to win, they just have to do what they did 4 years ago- keep Brady scrambling, it's that simple.
    I refuse to argue with idiots, because people can't tell the DIFFERENCE!

    As others have said, get Brady scrambling and the Giants should win.
    Get Brady scrambling and not running like Michael Vick and the Giants will win.

    I'd like to see the Giants win, so .... Go Giants !

    Didn't know they subbed the patriots' receivers with Tony Romo in the 4th.

    I think next year I'll decide who I like in the SB, and at the last minute, bet against them. My pick never wins.

    As a Pats fan, I knew all along the Giants were going to take this. NO surprise. Just like last time! Brady, OK but you can't beat NY if you stay close because Manning has had some crazy Mojo of late. A great QB "closes" out the game, he doesn't let NY stick around! Sorry Tom...no more late minute comebacks for you! Eli is the "man"-ning! Repeating the 2008 game is laughably "bad"!

    Look at how all the Pass oriented teams were taken out in the year of the PASS: first Brees, then Rodgers, now Brady.

    Brady's career is over! Belichick is OK but in no way a "great coach".

    New York "wanted" it the most. They played like a champion and, guess what they won, again! Stick a fork in them the Pats are done, you won't see them in another SB for a long long time!

    I'm going back to my old "home" team, the Eagles and wait another two decades for a SB appearance. lol

    I am not a patriots fan and was rooting for the giants, but even as a guy who does not like the patriots I can say that's one of the dumbest things I've read. No offense meant, but that's just crazy talk.

    It was a great game! But yet again, the Giants had to beat not only the other team, but the F*ING refs also!

    Seriously, I feel like they were not even watching the same game.

    OMG! That game was a snoozer!

    And Eli as MVP is a joke! Nobody really stood out at all. They should give Al Michaels the MVP for managing not to choke the ever loving bejesus out of Collinsworth.

    Giants to win outright and the under...
    Victory lap times two... :cheesygrin::cheesygrin:

    The game in a nutshell...

    Eli Manning deserved the MVP... 75% completion rate with nearly 300 yards passing with a TD and no picks.

    Ref'ing was very fair... the opening Intentional Grounding/ Safety call was both ballsy and correct.

    Madonna did not deliver the sustained energy it takes to be a great SB halftime show.

    Agree to all that, thought their kicker was going to be MVP, he did a great job.

    As far as Brady goes, you can't say they didn't have their chances. The dropped balls in the 4th quarter was their demise with one in particular that may have cemented them in as the champs. This season has been one of the worst I can remember, for alot of teams, for dropped balls.

    My wife constantly screams at receivers, "You have one job, catch the f&ck'n ball ". Not the hard catches, the ones that hit them in the numbers, the ones that should be no brainers.

    I disagree, Eli had a helluva game. That throw to Manningham was stupid good.

    Who gets your vote, besides Al Michaels who I believe is ineligible?
