I agree, and I think for better. I find it funny that I have more optimism for the Eagles then most Eagles fans I know. I still think McNabb can get it done, he will healthy now. The Eagles need to get some damn receivers, like DeSean Jackson. As for the draft...I'm still hoping the Giants take Dan Connor.

And almost 3 months till the draft! Thank God for the NFL channel. I'm thinking that with 2 first round picks the Cowboys can find a cover corner...

^ I know! And Jody I hear a lot of talk about getting a new QB, like McNabb. A good idea, but I think Troy Smith should start for next year. He played very little, but I thought he was decent. I hope the Ravens give him a chance at least.

Yea he got a lot of flak for that. Especially for saying they'd hold the Pats to 17. Guess he deserved the criticism, since they held them only 14.  Now that the excitement is slowly wearing off I don't know how I can wait until next year...

Your right Jody. As happy as I was to see Eli really step up Amani Toomer and Michael Strahan REALLY deserved this win. 2 lifelong Giants and 1 definite hall of famer. Congrats guys. Well, guess there's not much to do now......

I don't know if it was over confidence. That defense hit Brady so many times that I think it threw him off. I don't care who you are, but if you get smacked that many times, then it's going to go through your head every time you drop back. The Patriots didn't have a running game, so that meant the Giants could really go after Brady.

No team is immune from overconfidence and the Pats proved that against the Giants. I guess it's true that "you can't win 'em all." Let's start the whole process over next August.

OH MY GOD!!!!!!!!!!
The GIANTS win the Superbowl!
They went ON THE ROAD into the Superbowl and beat the 18-0 Patriots!
I'm sorry....but f*ck tom brady f*ck randy moss, f*ck bill bellichek f*ck wes welker
F*CK YOU Tiki Barber
Correct me if I'm wrong, but everyone basically slated the Pats as the greatest team ever, so dosn't that make the Giants the best ever?  The defense was amazing, and Eli stepped up BIG |
C'mon. I know you're happy and a lot of people are glad to see the Patriots lose (any Dolphins fans out there?), but was this tirade necessary? I'm not a huge Bellichek or Moss fan, but this was over the line. Enjoy the win, but please save this for you and your buddies. E

<Big Sigh> Oh well, the Giants played well and they defeated the Pats... 
True congrats to the Giants fans only, not to anyone else who roots for any other team but wanted to see the Pats lose.
It wouldn't have hurt that much if the Pats had lost one f`******g game in the whole season
< Another big sigh > anyway... I'm quiting the e-mail notification for this thread Congrats Giants fans! |

In the offseason, I couldn't believe that they rehired Coughlin; he didn't seem to have any respect from the players, and you can't win that way. But somehow he's turned it around and now he's holding a Lombardi Trophy.
With a new Coughlin, a new Eli, and a new secondary, I'm feeling really good about next year.

Man.........can you believe this????
I still can't myself. The Giants straight up outplayed the Patriots.
That defense, the new Eli, a 1-2 run attack (Bradshaw is a BEAST)
*sniff* I smell success in the future

Don't forget Fred Robbins, he's a monster in the middle.
