I think those were two, every evenly matched teams.
I want to say the Giants are the better team, but it's tough. Patriots made a few more mistakes and also didn't capitalize on the mistakes the Giants made.
Brady interception was dumb. He underthrows an open Grankowski...but also a throw he shouldn't have made. Guy was hobbling all over the place. No way you ask him to make that catch.
They made two really good defensive plays on forcing those fumbles...yet couldn't recover either of those. Recover one of those...game over.
Welker missed catch. Make that catch, game is also over.
But Giants made there share of mistakes, but played an overall better game with the exception of converting in the red zone. Belichek called a good game plan of giving them 10-20 yard passes but no deep balls...banking that they would miss on a few that would end up stalling drives.

I don't think Gronkowski should've been out there. He was not mobile enough to be a threat aside from his one 20 yard catch early on.
Hell, even on the game ending hail mary, Gronkowski almost caught the ball on the deflection but couldn't push off of his bum ankle hard enough and missed it by inches. 2/6/2012 8:48:57 AM |

i thought it was a very good game. i always get a little joy of seeing Tom Brady walk off the field defeated.
Did anyone watch the post game interviews from Brady or Belichick? How did they sound?]

Brady has 3 superbowl rings
I don't feel one ounce of sadness for him or the Patriots.
On the other hand, I can't stand the Manning family so this was a lose lose situation either way for me.

He may have proved himself to be the NFL's calmest QB. At no point did he look like he was worried, he just knew the team was going to make it happen.
