So long perfect season, Pats!
Congratulations Giants and Eli!!!
Is this the biggest upset in Super Bowl history?
Bigger than the Jets beating the Colts?
How do you rate this game compared to other Super Bowls?
What say you, sports fans?

February 4, 2008 - 18:26 ET by TeeDeeThat game was awesome! The best play was Eli escaping the sack and throwing the ball his receiver caught with one hand on his helmet! I expected the Pats to win, like almost everybody else probably did, but was glad the Giants won. What a season for the Giants and their fans!
And for next year - GO, COWBOYS!

That's Karma For Ya! (I Ain't Sheddin' No Tears For The Pats!)
February 4, 2008 - 00:15 ET by Wildcatter1980The Pats poor sportsmanship and arrogance has come back to bite them. Always remember, "What goes around, comes around." Instead of showing humility after the first go-round of Spygate, the Pats decided to rub everyone else's noses in "it." Then, when they could least afford it, the GEEEEEEEEEEEEE-men beat them in a clearly shocking fashion. So, no, I ain't sheddin' no tears for the Patriots.

Wow, what a great game. That was sheer will that kept Eli from being sacked when it was 4th down and 45 seconds or so left. What an amazing play! At that moment he earned MVP. And the whole team deserves that win! I am not even a Giants fan, but boy, I was last night!!!

But I want to apologize to all the Patriots fans out there. See, I forgot to wear my special good luck sweat shirt....and that makes the loss my fault.
Seriously, regardless of your team affiliation, that was one of the more enjoyable Super Bowls, and the Giants deserve their victory.

Bad news for the Eagles
February 4, 2008 - 00:21 ET by KC MulvilleAt first, I wanted the Giants to win, for purely selfish reasons. Coughlin's a screamer and disciplinarian, and once you win (in this age of free agency), that only works for so long. Plus, if they bring Shockey back, everyone else can tell him to stuff it, because they won without him.
But I watched that team tonight. Solid defense. Solid offensive line. Eli prospered under pressure. They have a few young players who came on strong. The things that used to destroy that team from the inside are no longer a problem. That's a solid team.
My Eagles are in trouble.

February 3, 2008 - 23:31 ET by candanceThe Giants defensive line is truly what saved this game. They sacked Brady at several critical times and kept them away from even getting close to field goal range.
And they wanted it more. They fought their way out of tackles and stayed on their feet against all odds. The Giants simply had the hunger to win.

February 4, 2008 - 01:03 ET by Noel SheppardPaul,
Yes, the Colts were 17 point favorites. However, they finished the year at 13-1, while the Jets were 11-3. As such, the Colts won 93 percent of their games, versus 79 percent for the Jets. That's a 14 percent difference.
By contrast, the Patriots this year had a 100 percent winning percentage, versus the Giant's 63 percent, a 37 percent difference.
Which is a bigger upset?
In the end, wasn't the 17 point spread back then a function of how little respect was given to the AFL? The Jets were a much better team than the bookies and the media gave them credit for mainly because the AFL was still considered a bastard stepchild.
Might that make this game a much bigger upset? ns
Well Noel
February 4, 2008 - 01:22 ET by candanceI wasn't even close to being born in 1968 or even 1978 so the shock of the Jets win is lost on me.
It's kind of interesting how the Patriots upset the Rams and then they themselves got upset at the height of their careers.
This was the most exciting game in my personal memory.
2004 was the most heartbreaking for me. :-(
I think Jets-Colts will
February 4, 2008 - 10:08 ET by Hero SquadI think Jets-Colts will likely endure as the greatest football upset of all time. You're talking about a time when they were two distinctly separate leagues, and the prevailing wisdom was that the upstart AFL was vastly inferior, and their record was based on playing only teams that were considered "vastly inferior" (I think the Jets were 10-4, actually). This game was not only a stunning upset, but it set the course for what would eventually be a merged league.
Based on how the Patriots played against the Giants in week 17, it seemed that 12.5 point spread was high. Even though I thought the Pats would win, were I a gambling man, I would've put my cash on the Giants + points.
Jets-Colts are in the stratosphere of the 1980 U.S. hockey team of upsets. This game doesn't quite reach those heights.

HS - what you say is more true that most would admit
February 4, 2008 - 17:45 ET by FastEdJets-Colts is ancient history to a lot of folks. The Colts were the team to beat, being older, wiser, and more set in their ways (experienced), while the Jets were young and brash, and the panty-hose wearing Broadway Joe shot his mouth off (not cool to the oldsters) but he knew how to play the QB spot and proved himself and the young team. It was a classic case of "not knowing they were supposed to lose".
All in all, 42 was one of the BEST super bowls of recent history, good play, fair play, and for us in the blue state of NJ, a bitter sweet win by the NY Giants (who play in Joisey, but refuse to change their name due to the snobbiness of political correctness - yeah sour grapes)

JUST HAS BEEN SERVED!!!!!
February 3, 2008 - 23:56 ET by dodecahedronCongratulations to the New York Giants for stopping the Patriots from irreparably damaging the history of the NFL!
Now Goodell needs to be shown the door for allowing a team that got caught, red-handed, cheating to win a game to participate in the post season. The Patriot's record needs to be corrected to show that they didn't win the game vs. the Jets where they were caught cheating.
Finally, Belichik needs to be banned from coaching in the NFL for life for cheating.
The Giants have saved the NFL.

RE: JUST HAS BEEN SERVED!!!!!

Aside from that, for Pats fans, I would NOT want my team to have lost in the superbowl either, much less the perfect season. Geesh my heart was pounding during this one. I'd hate to have my team there in this situation. I'd probably would have busted an aorta or something...LOL

Several Thoughts...
February 4, 2008 - 00:02 ET by ratkinI have a few comments on the game:
(1) No matter who you were rooting for (or against), it was one of the best Super Bowl games in years. It was well played, and edge-of-your-seat suspenseful all the way through.
(2) Any team that tries to trademark "19-0 The Perfect Season" before winning that all-important 19th game richly deserves to lose.
(3) Tom Brady let his bloated reputation as God's gift to football go to his head. After his conceited remarks at several press events this week, I was happy to see him get his just desserts.
(4) Any event that causes Boston/New England sports fans psychic pain is sure to put a smile on my face.
ratkin
February 4, 2008 - 00:20 ET by candanceNot only did they lose, the most delicious part is that they lost to a wildcard team that came in 10-6. The Giants beat two teams for the right to be offered up as the sacrificial lamb and they outplayed the best team in the country.

February 4, 2008 - 00:02 ET by byrneyI'm a die hard Patriots fan since 1969. But my hat's off to the Giants. Their defense was incredibly tough. It was a hell of a game. Heart pounding to the end.
Upsets:
1 Jets over Colts
2 Patriots over Rams
3 Giants over Patriots

February 4, 2008 - 00:06 ET by GregEGreat sportsmanship Bymey. Heart pounding, no doubt, and neither team is mine. What a game!
Thanks
February 4, 2008 - 00:16 ET by byrneyThanks Greg. This is tough to swallow. I think I'm still in shock. Where was our offense? Is it real or is it Memorex?
byrney
February 4, 2008 - 00:27 ET by candanceBrady had a bad night against SD two weeks ago. I remember telling hubby if he played like that again they would lose.
One of the biggest differences tonight was Brady getting sacked five times. The Giants almost got two points for a safety.
The offense has given Brady
February 4, 2008 - 00:31 ET by GregEThe offense has given Brady time all year. Giants were possessed, especially the D-line and the time to throw just wasn't there. He had a couple that he missed outright, such as Moss running the up and out near the left front corner of the endzone, but overall his setup time was taken from him. Commentator after the game mentioned Brady knocked off his feet 18 times, and that excluded the sacks. That simply never happened to him like that this year.
A win is a win, but you gotta admit that that Manning to Tyree play on their final scoring drive was one of the biggest whatever-you-wanna-call-it plays of all time. Luck, skill, happenstance, etc. Tyree pinning the ball to his helmet with the defender pulling at his upper arm, and still held on. Simply amazing. 9 times out of 10 that catch is never made, but without it, the game turns out differently. Plays like that become legends, such as Dwight Clark and "The Catch," 49ers vs Cowboys in 1981 NFC Championship. Not quite that big, only because that catch itself wasn't a scoring catch.
I'm glad it wasn't my team that it happened against (neither team is) else my heart may have pounded its way right out of my chest.
Good Game.
February 4, 2008 - 00:07 ET by BlondeIt was kind of fun....I never ever considered "Eli"....so good for him!

Yeah Blonde, and the fact
February 4, 2008 - 00:34 ET by JerYeah Blonde, and the fact that Peyton never beat the Gators [as if he alone were responsible] is the rationale ESPN used to launch a Heisman campaign for a junior cornerback from Michigan, and consequently deprive Manning of an award he should have won in a landslide--even though Peyton had won more games than any other quarterback in the history of college football.

February 4, 2008 - 00:09 ET by JerWhat I say is...whatever David Feherty [the CBS golf announcer] predicts in the future is what I'm putting my money on.
Near the end of the final round of the tournament in Arizona this afternoon, all of the commentators were asked to make their Super Bowl predictions. After everyone else had, not surprisingly, picked the Patriots to win handily, Feherty noted that he had been to dinner with the Manning family a few days before, and then stated the Giants would win the game...17-14!

February 4, 2008 - 01:17 ET by AJSHOPELuckily the guy I graduated high school with (Chase Blackburn) didn't cost the Giants the game. He made a great tackle on the kick-off after the first Giants' touchdown, but he almost blew it.
Also, as a temporary transplant to the Boston area (from Ohio) it'll be nice to not have to hear how amazing the Patriots are and how historic their season was. The guys in the office actually said that nobody could beat the Patriots.
It'll be quiet in the office on Tuesday because half of them went to the Super Bowl (because my boss is the former owner of the Patriots (Pat Sullivan)).
