Opening line is New England -3

Sounds fine to me.  I prefer it when the Giants are the underdogs.

I really find it hard to believe bettors will allow this line to remain though.  Giants have been on fire lately.

I present you best username trophy sir.  ;D

Ha ha!

Thanks, and a TP your way.

Gotta say, as just a pure fan of football, what better matchup could the NFL have gotten?

I mean, a replay of a historic SB, featuring two teams with huge followings.  I have a suspicion the hype will be unbearable!

This isn't much of a prediction but I'll call it now anyway.

This'll be the most watched Super Bowl of all time. The only way it could have been more watched would be if Tebow had made it in.  That would have gotten a 100 rating and share. This will be like 99 and 99

Thie ratings will be through the roof.  This will be the most watched tv program of all time.

If only the NFL hadn't chosen such a small time city as Indy.

Which reminds me, Peyton must be fuming.  His little bro' and his arch nemesis, playing for the SB, in his home town.  Wow!  Kick to the balls.

Yeah, that's one category where Brady trumps every QB ever.

I disagree, but I can see why people would say that

I think I'm gonna end the night with this.  These next two weeks sure will provide a nice distraction from the nightmare that has been the Celtics season to date.

Good luck Pats fans.  May the best team win (mine of course  ;D)

Are the Pats underdogs this time?

If you ask me, the way they played against the Ravens, plus the fact that the Giants beat them earlier this season -- yes, they are underdogs by a good margin.
Never forget the Champs of '08, or the gutsy warriors of '10.

I was rooting like crazy for the Niners last night.  I could see the pats getting run out of the building unless brady is on his game.  Im just not sure how we stop manningham, nicks and victor. 

Add in the fact the the Giants D is plenty good enough to give us trouble... I don't like it.  Giants were the most complete team in the playoffs.

Its extremely difficult to beat a really really good team twice in one year. Its one of the reasons that the Pats won their first SB and why they lost to NY. It also can be said its why NY beat Green Bay last week.


Its going to be very difficult odds wise for NY to beat NE twice this year given who good this Pats team is and also considering that Brady just laid an egg vs Baltimore. Expecting two bad games from Brady in a row in the playoffs is like expecting rain on a sunny day in the Sahara.

I'm expecting an excellent high scoring game. 38-34 Pats.

I hope you are right Nick, I am just not sure the Patriots are a really really good team.  I hope they are but who knows.  I know there defense isnt good, I just hope they are good enough!

All the hype and talk for the next two weeks...




It comes down to this, whoever has the ball in the 4th quarter with one minute left is going to win the game.


It is pretty much what has happened the last three games. 



Go Giants!
