Enjoy the two weeks - you've got a buzzsaw headed your way, and that buzzsaw is not only on a roll - it started up when it almost beat the Pats a few weeks ago.The Superbowl is not going to be a cakewalk for either team, in fact, it may be a real game this year.ETA: The early line is New England by 13-1/2 which is unrealistic. If I were a betting man, I'd be laying some serious cash on the Giants before the oddsmakers come to their senses.

Yes, everyone is brushing off the Giants because the Pats are 18-0, but never underestimate the power of an underdog.
 
I don't dislike the Pats and if they indeed make it a perfect season...then they deserve the praise they are getting. As a Giants fan, they are just wowing everyone. I have seen Superbowl games that don't turn out anything like you think they will. Yesterday, Brady and Moss were not having their best game but the Pats showed that the rest of the team was good too.

I didn't think the Giants would beat Dallas...in fact, I expected Dallas to score at the last minute like they did in earlier games this year. Buffalo led the entire game and in the last few seconds, Dallas scored to win the game. And yes, the Giants gave the Pats a run for their money the last time they played. And being a wild card, in my heart of hearts, I knew they could beat GB but I too listened to the "odds" of the game and thought they would get beat.

I just pray for a good game and that the Giants keep this momentum going. Oh and let's hope Tom Petty doesn't have a wardrobe malfunction...his music is good, but he ain't so pretty!!!:yuck: :D
 
A wardrobe malfunction could be a real Heartbreaker.
 
My DH is an avid Chargers fan, so he was disappointed to see them lose. However, the Chargers did do what no other teams was able to do all season long and that was keep the Patriots from scoring more than 30 pts in the game. He was happy about that!:)

Super Bowl Sunday is going to be fun!
 
I agree KG; it'll actually be a good game I think. The Pats may be undefeated; but most of their games have been close. And the Giants just knocked out the 2 best teams in the NFC, so I'm not counting them out yet.
 
I'm looking forward to the close game. As fun as it is to win the game, it is more fun to watch when it is a "good" game.
The Patriots are really good at offense. The tough games are the ones where the other teams are also. The Patriots are lacking in the defense area, so that is when the games get close. I second the Tom Petty wardrobe malfunction. :( Yuck!

Correction:

They beat the NFC's third best team and second best team, in that order.

It's getting more realistic - the line is down to 11-1/2 at some places and 12-1/2 at others. Still time to get your bets down while the spread is unrealistic.

BTW - The over/under on the NFC Championship game was 42-1/2. Those who bet the over are very happy this week as the final was 23-20.
 
Go Giants!!!!!

So, were you a betting man???? ;)
 
Janet, I think he is gone to cash in his winnings!!
 
I said the Giants all along but I sure wish I had bet on them now. lol Can you imagine how much money people lost on this game? I bet Vegas is nuts tonight.
 
I was so upset! I could not believe the Patriots lost!! UHHHH!!!
 
I was so upset last night. But as a Pats fan I can say the Giants did play a better game. The Giant's knew that they had to be all over Brady if they were going to win.

But as a Pat's fan I wont loose site that they did win 18 games and that is still impressive.

And this Giants fan totally agrees. The Pat's had an unbelievable season from start to finish. No matter how the game ended last night...we were all watching a REAL game...no team got lucky and no team had a bad night. It was just pure talent from both sides. The most exciting game I remember watching in years.
 
Well, being an Ole Miss gal I've got lots of experience cheering for a quarterback named Manning!Eli plays much more like his dad than Peyton does. While the sportscasters couldn't understand why Eli didn't get sacked on that strong rush late in the 4th quarter, I could. The boy watched his dad play that way week in and week out, after all, Archie never did have an offensive line when he was with the Saints!Great game, Giants!
