I'm insanely jealous...

 

Did you order your NFC Championship shirt yet?

 

Yep, it's on the way. Bought one for my girlfriend, mom and I.

Patriots! Want to see them have the perfect season!

 

You guys keep talking about the Giants healing up and making it tougher for the Patriots. You do realize that the Patriots have the same amount of time to rest and heal as well, right? I just don't see it as a signifcant advantage.

Anybody who buys a conference championship shirt doesn't have much confidence for the Super Bowl :p

But the Patriots don't have as many people injured. Not banged or sore, actually injured...

I will pull for the Giants, but I don't see the Pats losing...

The Giants will play the Pats tough, but as usual, Brady and company will find a way to win!

Does that make any difference? Now you have some "sore, banged up guys" who are not sore and banged up, going up against some "actually injured" guys who will now just be "sore and banged up".

Giants are going to ruin History for the Pats.

Giants-27

Patriots-24

Huh?

 

You'll have guys that didn't play at all, playing for the Giants. You'll have guys that played banged up, played fresh for the Pats. The Giants have those same banged up players but in that particular game, the Giants were without more players.

 

With all that said, it may mean nothing...

Huh? Right back atcha! :lol:

 

I think we're saying the same thing...:lol:

It's weird common sense tells me that the Pats will blow them away but I am having a weird feeling about the Giants winning. I will go with the Pats by 14, but I will not be rooting for them.

I'll go with the Patriots. I don't think they've chased history this far to lose to the Giants...and Brady surely can't stand the thought of a Manning beating him in the Super Bowl.

 

I still think the Patriots are capable of running anyone they play off the field, so that's a possibility. The Giants also proved that they can play with the Patriots, so it shouldn't be a surprise if they do just that, or even win.

 

Obviously, the fact that the Giants will be healthier is a plus for them and a reason for optimism.

 

But, on the flipside, I have to believe that favorable weather in Arizona will be a huge plus for New England. An offense like that is obviously more dangerous when the weather cooperates...when they played the Giants last time it was cold and windy...it's doubtful that would be the case this time.

 

Here are my points to consider...

 

1. The Patriots have been here before, the Giants haven't. That could especially be a big key when you look at Brady vs. Manning...

 

2. The weather will be more favorable this time around, which you have to think favors New England...

 

3. The Giants will be healthier, presumably, so give them the nod there...

 

4. And, here's a big one...they played about a month ago. Who benefits most from that game? The Giants probably gained some confidence by proving to themselves they could play with New England. However, Belichick is a master game-planner...I think the Giants played to win that game...with two weeks to study a game from a month ago, I believe the Patriots will benefit from that game when it comes to game planning and gaining a strategic advantage. I could be wrong, but Brady and Darth Hoodie are smart guys...smarter than Coughlin and Eli, I dare say...I think they'll come up with some new wrinkles.

 

We'll see.

Very good 5wide. I also think the fact the these 2 played each other just a month ago is a huge benefit for New England. Should be fun!
