Superbowl GWT: New York Giants/New England Patriots

Transplanted Caper · 01-20-2008, 10:16 PM

Well, it's finally here. After months of great football, two teams remain. The New York Giants and the New England Patriots. The Patriots a team of history, the Giants a team of destiny?

1. Can the G-Men contain another top-tier QB? They started off by beating Romo and tonight they beat Brett. Next week they take another step up the ladder as they take on Tom Brady. They were able to stop the other two, do they stop Brady?

2. Does the Pats defense hold Manning? Hard to believe it's being asked, but Eli has been great for several weeks now. Doesn't need a big bomb to hit the endzone and can manage a clock well. Will the Patriots keep Manning on the bench by ensuring lots of three-and-outs?

I sure as hell didn't have the G-men going but I think it'll be a good matchup

Man, I wish Kiwanuka was playing.

Will this be yet another show of dominance of a Boston team over a New York team? Will the Giants join the Yankees and Knickerbockers as being inferior to their Bostonian counterparts?

oh shizzen, thems might be fighting words to some people...

I think the pats are gonna take it, probably a really close game but u just cant really argue with 18-0

Blaze_1UP · 01-21-2008, 03:27 PM

What these Giants have done is very impressive, beating both bye teams and winning on the road every game. I'd put this teams accomplishments up there with the 97' Broncos and 06' Steelers, only thing now is beating the 18-0 Patriots which was a game they should of won earlier but lost 38-35 in week 17. Go G-Men !!!

I'd like to see the Giants win it, but I think the Patriots will once again do just enough to win. Giants against the spread though.

Got the food and drinks ready. Here's to a good one.

should be, i doubt its gonna be a blow out either way, but i think the pats will take it by at least a TD

Transplanted Caper · 02-03-2008, 06:36 PM

Solid first drive thus far by the Giants

Transplanted Caper · 02-03-2008, 06:41 PM

Tynes puts the G-Men up 3-0 with a FG.

Transplanted Caper · 02-03-2008, 06:59 PM

Interference call on Pierce leads to a gimmie for the Pats and a one-yard run by Maroney.

7-3 Pats
