The Giants offense started strong with Eli Manning throwing right on target. He was able to keep his offense on the field and Favre and pals on the sideline. One can only wonder what the Giants would be like if he had two more receivers that could catch a football like Plaxico. The Packers offense never got going in the second half; they must have just gone cold standing on the sideline. I really felt for those guys, playing in the cold; and couldn't help but wonder how many feministas would like the opportunity to play 60 minutes of football in those conditions.
Any way, the desired matchup between Brady and Favre won't happen this season, which is too bad. I don't see any way the Giants can win the Super Bowl because Mr. Brady has too many weapons.
yeah i was set for the Pats Packer Super Bowl myself. I envisioned the Packers winning Favre winning MVP then Retiring but that ain't happening. I really don't think the G men can match up to the Pats all that well. I agree while Toomer is a good receiver he is no Burress. I just hope the game is not a blow out. I really hate the Pats I'm a Raiders fan and I still can't get over the way the Raiders were cheated in that Playoff game in the snow. So I will be cheering for the G Men and Hopefully Eli can play like his brother and pull off the miracle!!!!!!
spitvenom, i dont think it should be a complete blow out, when the Pats and Giants faced off in the reg. season, i didnt think it was that bad of a game, down by 22 points then turned around and won. so i bet it will be a good game
Nobody likes a total blow-out. I would have liked Brett Farve (38) to have had this shot at another ring. I know he would, too!! There's always next year....
That having been said, the Giants have already put up a bodacious good game aginst the Pats in the regular season.
Seems each time the opponent gets jiggy, the Pats find another weapon (I like that analogy!!) and pull out another win.
However, in the interest of fair-play, which team is currently the most watched? The most envied? Perhaps, at this point in the NFL... the most scruntinized and dissected of all the teams in league history?
When any team is given the opportunity to view film of their opponent, they will.
This will be a very good Super Bowl!! Perhaps the best and most competitive ever!!
Individual effort, play calling, superior stamina.... May the best team win!!
I recommend you get your Patriots gear early, before it's all sold out.
I hope it will be a great game. I'm tired of seeing these NFC teams come in and do nothing. Well Except for Tampa Bay!!!!!! The Giants did play the Pats very well in the last game of the season. Hopefully they can repeat that in the Super Bowl.
read an article about the turf in the stadium... apparently, since its a retractable roof stadium, and therefore some of the grass gets more light than other sections, they have the entire field on a platform that rolls out of the stadium.
its literally turf over 6 inches of dirt that is on some wheeled base. meaning they can take the entire thing out and get great drainage and sunshine. which means awesome turf for the game.
who gives a hoot?
the speedy guys. one line of thought is that the pat receivers should have a little extra zip and might be able to get some separation... and on the other side, the giants rushers might get a little extra "grip" trying to get around the tackles.
i wasnt impressed, or at least i wasnt paying attention to the giants until they hit the playoffs... well, the pats game was surprising, but i was still mostly ignoring them.
if ny can get around the edges and the defense can jam up receivers hard at the line, maybe they can do the "unthinkable"? though welker has shown all year he can take those fast passes when everyone else is getting hammered.
yeah, i kind of wanted a green bay/pats game, but still... this will be history no matter what... either a team goes undefeated or a manning wins a year after a different manning wins the superbowl.
i, for one, think it has the potential to be a great, great game.
KP i agree with what you said, but, brady is pretty good thinking on his feet, so after a couple down he will realize that giants defenders have adapted to the truf, he will most like resort to screen plays or running mariony, but just 2 days untill the superbowl of the history
kp, I hadn't though about the two Manning's/two SB's thing. That would give the family legacy something more to talk about. We'll see if they can put together as good a show now as they did then.
But I would have also like to see Favre get another shot. He could follow in Marino's footsteps in that regard: play hard every year and still not get the crown jewels of his profession.
A short while back, Mike Rowe on "Dirty Jobs" did a segement on the U of P Stadium. It will be interesting tosee who benefits the most. Usually the offense has the advantage there. Either way, I hope to see a clean game that is played on the field, not the booth.
Time will tell. And the clock is ticking!!
Tailgaiting starts tomorrow!!
