I am not a giants fan but here it goes .... Yes your right you do have a great quarterback and a great team no doubt one for the record books and definitely record setting.

About the Giants game: I don't agree with you regarding game planning at the giants game. Every team game plans for every game regardless of the situation yes they may have been about records but to make the assumption that your team wasn’t out there to win is wrong. They were trying to win that game period. The penalty excuse doesn't hold water. Penalties are penalties and a part of the game, you win some and lose some, calls go both ways and penalties could be called on every single play. Shit there were 4 severe holds on David Gerards 4th down run against the steelers that weren't called but thats football

About the Giants Opponents: Regarding the Bucs, the Cowboys and the Packers ... Your making excuses for other teams records. Their job is to win football games period. The teams job is to line up and beat whomever is in front of them regardless of streaks, records etc. I could also make the argument that Patriots stumbled down the stretch against two extremely mediocre teams and indeed Mr Rivers of the Chargers gave many gifts to the Patriots during the championship game and that it would have been different if LT played but I wont because I don’t make excuses.

In the end like I said before I really hope they win because it would be a collapse of epic proportions. I personally think it will be a good game, only time will tell. The pats have the weapons

Gman, I definately respect your analysis. I can tell you have good feel for the game.

I was not saying that winning was not the main priorty in the first game, of course it was.... I was just saying that the game plan was focused around getting 12 & 81 their records. Not only did they accomplish that, but they also managed to win the game. I feel that this game plan will be much more of a wide open attack and will be much tougher to defend with the recent emergence of the running game.

How am I making excuses about the other teams records? I said that Tampa Bay is a mediocre team, Dallas was banged up, and GB gave them the game. These are all facts that are tough to dispute in my opinion. However, going on the road and winning 3 playoff games under any circumanstance is a great accomplishment! Take nothing away from them there, I just feel that when all is said and done, they are going to be overmatched in this game. The Pats have too much on the line to let this one slip away.

I do think it will be a physical close game for about the first 2.5 quarters but the Pats will eventually pull away late and win by about 10.

Loggin in on my sons computer...thanks i appreciate that, played alot of ball and coached as well. Wasnt being confrontational just giving you my thoughts


Im with ya, just playing devils advocate. To be honest the steelers arent in it so its all a mute point to us altough I would rather see a good game than a blowout. Now if your anything like me when my team is playing I prefer the blowouts ha ha ha

Your back was running downhill as I call it, he had alot of momentum. I think it for the Giants to have a chance they need to prevent the big plays downfield and get to Brady. Good luck

I personally thing that the Pat's defense deserves a big round of applause.

Seau, Bruschi, Seymour, Vrable, and the rest..........man they showed up to play ball on Sunday. These guys make some HUGE plays.

Offense punches it in but putting the game into perspectice.......SD never scored in the end zone
