Pats will win.
Why?
Because I want them to lose...

That about sums up my feelings too. Maybe its a product of being a Redskin fan for so long.

Payton looked bad Sunday and that might work against the giants. He usually has a big game after a bad one.

When did the Colts trade Peyton to the Patriots?

re: Around the NFL: Super Bowl Thread

Giants win this in a shoot out. Better D and they have a pass rush that can get to Brady. The Pats D is going to struggle against the Giants WRs and Eli should have a big game.

Giants 34
Patriots 28

re: Around the NFL: Super Bowl Thread

Could one of the mods change the title and make this the new "Around the NFL- Superbowl thread". No need for a new thread.

Re: Around the NFL: Super Bowl Thread

You need more than luck to get this far. The Giants have been playing well, gotta give credit where it's due. They got hot at the right time, and healthy.

Cool Re: Around the NFL: Super Bowl Thread

Good story. It makes me wonder if a coach can be successful in today's NFL without the SOB mantra. It seems that in pushing players and staff, a coach has to be overbearing in order to be successful. These three guys are certainly devoted to that style/approach.

I would like to think there is still room for the Joe Gibbs philosophy, but I'm not sure about that. Probably never see his style replicated anyway, because in my mind, Joe Gibbs was one of a kind!

Well, truthfully he should have won more than he did. Gruden took his team and won the super bowl and he only managed 1 SB with that loaded team in Indy.

It does seem that the Parcells, Bellicheat, Shanahan, Jimmy Johnson, Nick Saban type of coaches are more successful. I attribute that to they hold their players accountable unlike a Wade Phillips or a Norv Turner.
