No I dont think so, More interesting when you think your right when your clearly not
"Well done is better than well said.".. Tell me who said that.
Where do they stand?
What if the Giants lose Sunday? What if the Pats suffer the loss? Just where do they stand?
The 1 sucky thing about the Superbowl is that there is a loser. Every year, the winner is talked about with reverence for several months and the loser is treated pretty much like, well, a loser.
IMO, just to make it to the Superbowl; winning your conference title is a damn fine accomplishment and some recogition should be given.
If the Giants lose on Sunday to the Pats, I think it leaves them in a fine position. They went far above and beyond what anyone had predcted for them. They had a terrific playoff run with 3 great road wins, 1 in freezing sub-zero Lambeau and the other right in Jerry Jones back yard.
If the Pats lose, a lot of people I've spoken to say the 2007 campaign was a waste. I don't agree. Going unbeaten for every game in a regular season is a phenominal accomplishment that has only happened once before... in a 14 game season.
So, where do you think a Superbowl loss would leave the Gmen or Pats? Can it still be said they had a great season?
A steak lover?
lol.. I just got that one.
Actually, it was Tom Brady... I know, I know.. but he's my favorite current NFL player, so I gotta know my stuff lol
Well, Tom is a fine football player but I wouldn't go around quoting him.
I would LOVE to quote what he said to Anthony Smith after that first TD pass against the Steelers this year, but they won't say what he said.. oh well
He pretty much got the dumb ass lable for life
I still say NE has more riding on this than New York. You can't tell me players who haven't been to a Super Bowl for the Pats aren't thinking about it. Players like Moss, Welker, and Seau has been to one but was blown the hell out with SD. I know Belichickwill have them mentally as ready as possible but he's only a man and can only do so much. I do think however though that if there was one coach in the NFL right now that I would want to go against Belichick and that is Coughlin. Guy seems like he has Ice in his veins right now. However NE does have a ton of guys who have been to the big dance including their QB. What I'm saying is to me, a fan with no affiliation for either team, I think this game is a lot closer than most think.
It breaks down like this. . .
If NE plays their game and can keep the G men off Brady's ass, ballgame.
If the Giants get pressure, and the Giants play as they have been, close game.
Brady throws three picks this week, NE loses.
lol I usually don't, unless there's a great opportunity for a quote like that

One thing I know for sure?............. I CAN'T WAIT TIL 6:17 ET SUNDAY NIGHT!!!!opcorn:
I do agree with that breakdown, especially about the picks.
I think if Eli throws 2 picks, then their chances really take a BIG hit. While the Pats didn't always get points of turnovers, they kept the other guys on the sideline and gave their D better field position.
Game is gonna be based on the Giants front 4, whether they sack Brady or force him to get rid of the ball a lot.. or if they can't sack him and don't get that much pressure on him.

Speaking of eating.... What will everyone be eating/drinking before/during the game?!
Who is interested in half-time?... I'm not interested one bit. I'll probably go drain my bladder and answer text messages during that time.
Totally agreed on the Eli comment. No more than two for Eli or chances are they will be down too far to play their game. I don't think the Giants have to play a perfect game to win. But they do have to contain Brady and Welker.
The front four for the Giants have to get serious pressure on Brady and do it fast. If not there will be those short passes to Welker over the middle. Which once that happens look for coverage to come up and then its Brady to Moss for 6.
On the other end the Pats D has to contain Jacobs. If you force Eli to throw the ball obviously your chances are better at rattling his cage and maybe grabbing two picks. The Pats have been proned to giving up big yard in the rushing game this year but their O has bailed them out by scoring so often that the D only had to play pass D and thats so much more easy than worrying about inside running, outside running, and passing.
