While Manning was the MVP, it should went collectively to the defense. Their defensive schemes kept Brady on his toes and prevented him from completing even his shorter routes. It was one better games in recent history. I've always enjoyed low scoring games. It seems to make every point and/or miscue count.
Redweek's clock is off ... I've noticed that before and no I didn't have my post pretyped as the game was too close to call until the very end :o).
I wholeheartedly agree that the Giant's defense and offense was critical to their win, but for some reason the quarterback always gets the kudos and the MVP awards.
In the playoffs, the Patriots barely won against the Giants with a field goal in the last minutes of the game, so it really was a closer matched game than many thought.
This game will go down in NFL football history for two reasons 1. brother quarterbacks have one the SuperBowl two years in a row .... Peyton last year with the Indianapolis Colts and Eli this year 2. The Patriots were the heavy odds on favorite with 18 wins and 0 losses this season. I wonder how much money was lost and won over this game in Vegas and other betting venues?
