Nope, disagree....

I would much rather watch two teams I despise in the big game instead of not being able to watch at all.. No chicken wings, no alcohol, no game… This freaking sucks……

No way

I am cheering for that Fats er I mean Pats, so I guess I’ll root on the Giants even though I hate them too.

Dangerous way to end a game.

Healthy Gronk might have gotten that.

Your right

That defense dominating the Pats most all of the second half had nothing to do with it.

by Bucsfan123 on Feb 5, 2012 10:02 PM EST up reply actions  

Eli was their only offence all year.

Yes

But without the defense, this is a Patriots Victory.
I agree Eli was huge, and without him this doesn’t happen, but its a team sport, and the TEAM won this game, not just Eli.

by Bucsfan123 on Feb 5, 2012 10:14 PM EST up reply actions  

sure but the giants have a mediocre defense

All it takes a little defense and a great offence.

the term ‘defense wins championships’ hasn’t been true in years.

People say that.

But all I saw all throughout playoffs was the Giants defense wrecking havoc across the country. A nice luxury for any QB to have.

by NewLogic on Feb 5, 2012 10:22 PM EST up reply actions  

Sure but the statistics don't lie

The giants were one of the weakest defenses in the playoffs.

Eli is an elite QB and won a ton of playoff games for them

Stats also say

They held their opponents in the playoffs to 20 points or less. Two of them being top 3 scoring offenses. Another being in the top 10. As some one mentioned, it was mostly a team effort. Giants were the most complete team.

by NewLogic on Feb 5, 2012 10:31 PM EST up reply actions  

that's fine, but they just played hard in the playoffs

and were primary a offence focused team

Primarily... you don't know what your talking about

DEF got them through the playoffs AND won the Superbowl. You hold NE to 17 points – you’re doing it with DEF.

Ha.

Yuck

As a Bucs fan in New York I hate this superbowl. Giants fans come out of the woodwork and everybody makes it a Boston vs. New York thing. I have nothing against Boston, tho I hate the Celtics (go Knicks), but I have to hear everybody bash them. Jets fans even turncoat and love the Giants. Now we have to hear about how Eli’s the best Manning blah blah blah. If the Bucs don’t win the superbowl next year then I would like to see Peyton win the SB with the Jets and all will be right in NY.
