I don't think the Pats match up well with the Giants. I thought so in 2007 too. I think the Pats match up worse this year than the previous SB.

Pats are very lucky to be in the SB. The Ravesn SUPER blew it, but hey, that's football.

I think it's going to be a good game. I thought last years SB with the Pack and Steelers was boring... couldn't get into it.

So did the 49ers. Yeah, I know you guys don't like the 49ers. I'm not particularly a fan either BUT you've got to respect what Jim Harbaugh has done with that team. Especially when they were expected to be a doormat.

I fell asleep half way though and woke up to the confetti flying in the air... here's to hoping this year will be more exciting!

I don't have a "second team" and I don't think anyone who is a true fan does, but if we can't represent the NFC I want them to. I have a lot of friends that are Giants fans, and have to pull for Eli since he's a homeboy. I think the Giants take it in OT.

For the sake of discussion, none of the Giants secondary made the ProBowl either, so it should balance out. I think it becomes a, "who's going to shred who's secondary the most, Brady or Manning?" debate.

What is your average NFL cornerback other then a WR who couldn't catch the ball anyway? IDK, I'm looking at the last series in the Patriots/Ravens game as an indication of how the Pats secondary can play when it's crunch time where they broke up a couple of potential game-winning passes in the redzone.

Using a WR as a cornerback is not pretty, but it's functional. When you're trying to cover Cruz, Nicks & Manningham, more then likely somebody's getting open.

Glad I don't have a dog in this fight (though I am taking the Pats), the more you look at these two teams the more you realize how remarkably close they are.

Well, to be accurate, Julian Edelman is actually a QB who was playing WR and is now playing CB.
