Eh, at least Brady gets to go home to Giselle. Pretty good consolation prize in my book.
Nice prediction, OP

Everyone's got this one wrong. Most people like the Giants. others think the Pats in a close game. Both are wrong. It will be a blowout by the Pats.
Pats by at least 3 tds

Had to be bittersweet for Peyton, watching his younger brother win another ring in his home stadium. But good for Eli and the Giants. If Gronkowski was at full strength, it would've been a different game. But It's always fun rooting against Belicheat.
Brady and the Pats should have won handily if not for all the dropped passes. The Welker drop at 4:06 was the killer. That was the game there.
And several Giant fumbles and no turnovers? Luck was not on the Patriots' side today. But I can imagine a scenario where the final hail mary bounces into a Patriot's hands for the winner, and then Bradshaw becomes the goat for scoring his touchdown with too much time left for Brady.

Brady and the Pat's are chokers, Tommy can't win the bigh one anymore, it's ovah.
Keep imagining any scenario you want, the truth of the matter is the GIANTS won. Indy was a blast, on the field after the game celebrating the win, then more celebration at the GIANTS post game victory party at the Marriot, doesn't get any better than that.
The GIANTS WIN, the GIANTS WIN.
Must be tough being a Pats fan these days!

Not at all. They played pretty well. The D held the Giants to just one contested TD. G's had to kick two field goals on their other drives. G's had possession over 37 minutes. Pats did a lot in just 22 minutes and and they almost pulled it off in the final 57 seconds.
Most honest Giants fans will admit they were crapping their pants it was that close in the end.
Did you watch the game? The Giants scored 2 TDs, Cruz and Bradshaw.Don't be a sore loser. The Giants won. No need for woulda shoulda coulda.

I find it interesting that Belichek and the Pats have not won a super bowl without the spygate. They are a good, but not outstanding team, unless cheating.

This is true. Funny thing is, Manning vs. Manning might have happened this year in the SB if Peyton had been healthy. The AFC was total garbage this year. Any team had a chance if they just got in the playoffs.
i predict that Giants won 21-17. you heard it here first.
why is thread still up?
anyway, since it is, i would still call the Patriots outstanding despite the loss. 14-2 and 13-3 in the last two seasons is pretty damn good. not being a sore loser, im just saying, you cant have a conversation about the best NFL teams without including the Pats. every year for the last 11 years they have been a team you cant count out. at the beginning of this season, every one said they were done when they lost to Buffalo. having a patchy D and still making the SB is pretty outstanding. the Giants played great though, and you gotta hand it to em. they were really, really solid all around. it will be interesting to see how they do next season, with the best D-Line and best receivers in the league.

Pats, Steelers, Ravens and Colts from the AFC. No consistently good NFC teams beyond GB for the past 11 years. However, the Pats have not won a SB as recently as the others mentioned.
