Ho hum, aside from all the hoopla it felt like just another in-season Sunday football game.

Not saying we were a SB team but still gets me that we beat the Giants twice.

Maybe it's sour grapes but it's hard for me to think of the Giants as SB champions this year. Mediocre team most of the year, then got on a good run. Eli is a hell of a QB though. For the 1st 5 years of his career Eli wasn't very good, but over the last few years he's been very good.

Didn't Manning beat us in 2006?

If Welker catches that ball. Game over!!

Which is why I wanted the Patriots to win. We definitly won't stop hearing how they have 4 trophies and we only have 3. Only good side of things is Philli still has zilch. lol.

it would be kinda cool if the Mannings Bros got to play each other twice next year

Agree that drop changed the game, if he catches that they at least get a FG and then forces giants to get a TD and then that final drive would have only needed a FG.

Especially since he still got paid.

No, it wouldn't have been. But the point is, they spent the whole drive trying to run clock rather than get a clinching score. I think it misses the point to focus solely on the one play they missed the kill on, rather than all the plays on which they didn't even try for it.

**** you Eli
