Now this is what a championship game should be. This was a very good game, boring at times but I thought it was fun to watch. The Giants went into Green Bay (winning their last 9 road games) and won yet another one. This time in the -4 degrees temperates and -24 degree wind chill of Wisconsin. The Giants won this game in Overtime with a field goal. 23 to 20.
The Giants had a chance to win it at the end of the fourth quarter but missed the game winning field goal. After Green Bay got the ball first in overtime it looked like it was going to be yet another home comeback for Brett Favre but after throwing an interception, the Giants drove down far enough to try the field goal again. And it's good.
So there you have it people, your Super Bowl Match Up.
New York Giants vs New England Patriots.
This is the next chapter in the New York/Boston rivalry. Can New England capture another trophy for the Boston community or will the Giants who have been on a roll steal one more win.
My first guess is that New England will win another ring. However the Giants have proved that they are for real. They have beaten the top two teams in the NFC on the road (Dallas and Green Bay) And so now they head into Arizona for the Super Bowl to take on the best team in the AFC (and NFL)
What is your take on this? Does the Giants have one more huge upset in them? Can Eli continue to handle all of this pressure? What a story that is going to make. His brother wins the title last year and now Eli has a chance to win it this year. Archie Manning must be proud ha ha.
So what are your predictions?
I say that the Giants pull out on more upset. They will win the Super Bowl, 27 to 24.

I came home from work to catch the fourth quarter, I wish I could have seen the whole game. The Giants had a hard earned win, and I think they will hold their own in the Super Bowl. As for who will win, who knows? Anything can happen.
Can't wait to see it!

I am in shock. In my post about this I said that I was one of The Giants fans that thought the coach was on his way out. And now, he may be an a**hole but he is my a**hole. The teams is really together on the same page with the coaching staff. and stranger things have happened. the Giants have a good chance to win. I don't think it will be a blowout. It should be a good game. I am a Giant fan so my heart says Giants 27-20, but my head says Pats 30-21.Go Giants.
ps. I am sorry about your Chargers.

I'm going to go with the Pats but it will be a close one. I don't see it being a blow out by any means. I don't know if I'm thinking too much but I'm pretty much convinced that New England just can't be beat this season. It's just not possible. Can the Giants pull off the upset, of course they can. Will they is another story.

Ok so that was a huge upset game Greenbay would have won if it was not for the interception in OT. This was by far the greatest most exciting game i have ever watched and i am so glad that the Giants one all that hard work payed off. They came in as a wild card team and now look where they are super bowl baby this is the grestest thing all year for me.

That game was insane. The Giants's kicker misses two kicks and then makes the longest kick that he attempted. And what was Green Bay thinking just abandoning the run? That cost them the game if you ask me. Yeah I know that Favre made some bad throws and bad decisions but I don't think he should have thrown it that much. I think that Mike McCarthy pannicked at the end with his play calling.
But as for the Super Bowl. The Giants's road winning streak ends in Arizona. There's no way that Eli Manning is going to beat Tom Brady. Tom had a bad game today with 3 INT's but he isn't going to have two bad games in a row. And I just find it too hard to believe that Bill Belicheck isn't going to make the right adjustments after the Giants almost beat New England the first time around. I'm predicting 31-21 Patriots.

I like your score you predict armstrong but I like the Pats winning it. I see the Pats being able to have success throwing the ball although the Giants will be able to get some pressure on Brady at times. I see the Giants having moments of time of good ball control with Jacobs and Bradshaw against NE's mediocre run defense. I just think Brady will make one more play than Manning and NE will win a close one. I see that the spread is 14 points already. I like the Giants in that for sure.

What a terrific game! As a lowly Dolphin fan (yes I admit it), its been fun to sit back and enjoy the playoffs and see some real football! Gotta admire the Giants, to win all 3 playoff games on the road and against some mighty tough opponents! I believe all the so called experts predicted them to lose every week! I'm also happy for Eli Manning to get a chance. Must be tough being Peyton's brother. Now they have their work really cut out for them. Hopefully they will remember that they almost beat the Patriots in their last matchup! I'm hoping for a good game whatever the outcome is, as sadly most of the Super Bowls don't live up their hype.
