    Go Pats!

    Well if you went to bed early you missed the best QB in the NFL!!!!!!
    Go Go Eli,, bring on Brady and the rest.... A season is all about pacing yourself and the Pat's have peeked too early.... There's no doubt the Pat's have had the easier run in to the Superbowl.... Would the Pat's have made it if they'd had road games at Tampa, Dallas and Green Bay????
    Bring it on, Giants to win by 10..............

    Wait, what's this 'easy stuff'?

    They beat nearly every team that went to the play-offs this year in the regular season and play-offs combined.

    There was nothing easy about what they did, they just made it look easy.

    I agree; this attempt at perfection by the Patriots is truly a more spectacular achievement considering how the forces of parity have been aligned against them.

    Green Bay, err No, Tampa Bay, err No (and you lost at Tampa pre season, I Believe??) Titans, err No (O'h and you lost to them pre season as well!!!! he he) Seahawks, err No, Jags, err No..... I rest my case...... Easy easy easy road to the Super Bowl!!!!!!
    Ok,, lets get real...... Giants have improved every week since months back and Eli is a man on a mission.... Pat's, well, have they seriously peeked too early, and how easy has the run in been for you...... Big questions that wont get answered for a couple of weeks but but but don't write the Giants off just yet.... If the game is anything like as good as the last meeting (Wk 17) then what a cracker it's going to be.... Go D!!!!!!!

    7 play-off teams they've beaten in regular or post season:

    San Diego (twice)
    Dallas
    Washington
    Indy
    Pitsburg
    NYG
    Jacksonville.

    You want to name Titans in your list? That's dumb. You've named a bunch of teams that were out first round, what is your point?

    The only team they didn't play regular season was Jags, and they knocked them out of the playoffs.

    Please name someone from your list that would have beat New England, and explain why... it won't be easy considering they are all playing golf now.

    Ok ok, I'll give you the wild card games,,, but still!!!!!
    .... or are we talking AFC only???? What about Seattle and Green Bay then or had you forgotten about them.. Either could have beaten you with home field advantage.....
    NFC has been far more competitive this year, you've only got to look at the AFC east to see what I mean!!!!
    There's no doubt the Pat's on paper should walk this but you might well be missing my point, I truly believe that the Giants go into the Super Bowl with far more momentum and having played the far superior football over the past few weeks..
    Their weak link has always been Eli and there cant now be a player with more confidence than him....

    Giants by 9 then!!!!

    We can never know about Green Bay or Seattle having not played them, but I wouldn't have bet against the Pats.

    I wouldn't next week either.

    Sounds convincing to me, maybe we shouldnt show up, the Giants are mighty. I guess the only thing we have going for us is that we havent lost a game IN THE LAST YEAR😲😲

    It's rather interesting that the Giant-Packer game received far better ratings than the Pats-Charger game. In fact, the AFC Championship Game's ratings were down from last year. http://msn.foxsports.com/nfl/story/7703034

    It seems that the Pats run to history isn't so compelling to most NFL fans.

    About as compelling as watching paint dry. I sure did'nt waste my time watching it. As a matter of fact, I don't even know if I will watch the Super Bowl. It will probably be a toss up between doing laundry or watching the game. Maybe I will flip a coin to decide.

    I do not tip my hat to cheaters. The Pats let me, and a lot of other believers, down.

    You're a toss up.

    Go Pats!
