Giants won the superbowl

[HEROHAMO]

What an inspiring game.

The Pats acted like they won they game already. The whole week the media acted like it was already a done deal.

I also noticed the 21 sticker on the Giants helmets. I have a feeling Taylor was helping them in spirit. Not to take anything away from the Giants. That was a true team of players coming together as one. Truly that is what it is all about. Brought goose bumps. Next year Redskins all the way baby!! Wooo!

It was a great game. I don't believe anybody choked, but the Giants just played an outstanding game on defence. I thought they'd blown it by not scoring any points after all the chances their defence gave them, but the Manning to Tyree play on the final drive was the sort of play that deserves to win a championship.

Congrats to the G Men. I hate their fans but I was pulling for the team to win.

Seems in today's Modern NFL, everyone says "Offense Wins Games". Well, this SB proved once again that DEFENSE wins Championships.

Great game - one of the best SB's I have seen - other than the 3 we won.

Was I the only one hoping that the Giants would take a shot at the end zone with one second left?

Now the Patriots Choked in the Super Bowl. Haw Haw

Brady was hurt, a lot more than he led on....

Belichump abandoned his team out on the field. He was probably thinking, if we walk away, it never happened! LoL


The giants played a great great game, Eli was impressive. And their rookies played like seasoned Vets....

So much for the peeps saying AFC is where it's at.

Just an observation, but the team that won the Super Bowl just moments ago was the team that continued to wear the #21 sticker on their helmets throughout their push to the NFL Championship. Taking nothing away from what the G-Men accomplished today, it was noticeable that the team with the most #21 stickers on their helmet won the game.

RIP Sean Taylor, #21. We will miss you and the spirit you brought to the game. I hope that that spirit will continue to be a driving force for the Washington Redskins always.

Hail!

Noticed that too.

did anyone notice bradys face during the whole game was kinda pale? like he was jaundiced? eyes sucken a bit, he looked sick or scared or somthing. i dont think it was his ankle but he sure looked sick to me.

i wanted the patriots to win. they built a great team with great players and coaches. great management. they are a great team. and the whole cheating thing? everyone cheats, everyone spies, everyone takes steroids and HGH. they were just the unlucky ones to get caught. it would have been great to see them go 19-0 and to be able to tell my kids that i was alive when the greatest NFL team won the superbowl.. im tired of underdog stories.. they are all over the movies and tv. IMO, the patriots going 19-0 makes a better story than what really happend. i mean i go 19-0 all the time in Madden, but for it to actually happend in real life would have been amazing and untouchable. now i get to see that stupid "hey giants fans, your team just won the superbowl. celebrate your teams victory by ordering SI!!!" commercials for the next couple months

I wasn't rooting for the Giants as much as I was rooting against the Patriots.

By the end of the game, it was hard NOT to root for the G-men.

Thankfully now we don't have to endure an entire off-season of how the Patriots were "hand-crafted by God to be the greatest team ever." Now we can hear about how they lost to the lesser Manning!

I loved seeing Bellicheat storm off the field with 1 second left. I hope they make a big deal of it like they did with Randy Moss in Oakland...hey wait, there's a weird coincidence!

I know the Patriots can cry themselves to sleep surrounded by their other Superbowl trophies, but this really will be "the one that got away"!

Couldn't have happened to a nicer bunch of jerks!

Why are people saying that Belichick stormed off? What I saw was Belichick running ON to the field to congratulate Coughlin when the Giants regained possession on downs, having assumed that the game was over. Then we had the farce of having the Giants kneel for one play because there was actually still one second on the clock. Whether Belichick and the rest of the Patriots were standing on the sidelines at that point, I don't know (at 3:30am, I was ready for bed), but let's not accuse Belichick of something he didn't do here. There are plenty of things that he has done worthy of accusations - let's just not make up our own offences here.

No dude. He did leave the field. He did shake hands with Coughlin but when the officals were trying to get both teams back to the sideline Billicheat refused to come back out to the sideline and stayed in the locker room like a coward.

Snot asked

No. I gave a thought to our Sam calling time out with a few seconds to kick a field goal in the 72-41 game. Of course, a fumbled snap or some such could have made a sour ending.

But I was wishing...

On Brady, I think he just didn't like being sacked five times and knocked down about a dozen times.

Under the old rules, as I said someplace else, Brady would have been broken apart. Lawrence Taylor would have broken Brady's back on five or six of those plays.

Does anyone remember the first play of the Lions/Redskins NFC Championship game before SB 26? The Lions played the same sort of spread-out offense as the contemptible Puts, so Petibon blitzed a lot.

On the first play, Charles Mann tossed the blocker aside and didn't even slow down to wave at Barry Sanders before he blind-sided Erik Kramer. The upper half of Kramer's body went one way, the lower half went another, and the ball went about ten yards back, and into the hands of a Redskin. Of course, Brady is a bigger guy than Kramer, so it might have taken two Mann-like hits to finish him, but the Giants do seem to have found a weakness in the Puts's offense.

Well, a coach should definitely be out there on the sidelines until his team has finished the last play. But it's not as if he went off to the locker room without shaking hands. He did that, and then the officials insisted on clearing the field and running that last kneel down. I'm not sure that I would have stuck around for that if I'd been in his place. I don't like the public persona of the man, but I'm not going to condemn him for this particular crime.

Belichump abandoned his team out on the field. He was probably thinking, if we walk away, it never happened! LoL

I have two theories on why they lost, and they both point to Belichick:

1) Bill abandoned his trademark grey hoodie for a bright red hoodie. What's up with that? All season long you wear the (same) hoodie, and you abandon it for the big game?? What gives?

2) Bill's "spygate" actions finally caught up to he and the team. Methinks one of the higher-ups "politely" asked him to throw the game away, for the good of the league.

After all, the red hoodie is no coincidence. You've heard of the "Scarlet Letter", right? Belichick wore the "Scarlet Hoodie" on Sunday in the biggest lay-down in sports history.

Kudos to the Giants for taking advantage of the situation, but, from the top down, that was NOT the 2007-2008 Patriots on the field Sunday night. No way.
