Giants!!!!

I want the Giants to win and I believe they will. The Patriots secondary is so bad that they're using a WR as a CB. I know that Brady and Belichek are excellent at what they do but I just can't see how the Patriots can win this game.

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.

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.
