I think the game will be a lot closer than Las Vegas gives the Giants.

I think playing in nicer weather will help the Patriots offense score a lot of point, I don't think the Giants can keep up. I wish they were playing GB though, that would have been an easier game for NE. In the end I think too much offensive talent and super bowl experience will put NE over the top.
They have scored 38 points so many times this season, whay not again?
NE 38
NYG 24

True about the weather. Is it the dry season in AZ right now? Just wondering because if it is like what it was in Miami last year, it will keep the score lower.

I think the new stadium in Arizona has a retractable roof so weather won't be a factor.

The stadium where the game is at has a retractable roof and also has natural grass. The field can also be moved (rolled) outside through a slot in one of the end zones so it is a retractable field as well

It goes with the territory I know but it still must be a pain in the can to have to deal with this everytime you go out.

the bum leg - or alleged bum leg aside...the fact that he or anyone star just can't walk outside their home or SO's home without getting mobbed with cameras.
I really feel bad for the neighbors.

So if you are Tom Coughlin what do you do . . .
stack for the run . . . or play the cover 2 against Moss as teams have done all year . . . (and 18 - 0 shows that don't work too well . . .)

what ever he was doing in the 1st meeting...that seemed to work!!!!......i'd keep blitzing Brady and knock him around..hoping the Corners can cover 1 on 1..the front 4 will get pressure especially the ends!!!....Pierce will key on the run!!

Not on defense it didn't . . . . can't let the Pats score in the upper 30's on Super Bowl sunday. The Giants offense worked just fine . . . defense not so much in the first meeting . . . and now the Pats are in a climate controlled arena . . . not out doors in the cold and wind of NY.
Pierce needs a huge game. I agree!

There defense has played very well as of late.....and seems to be a lot different in there approach....shutting down the top 2 offenses in the NFC!!!...Yes they gave up 38 points!!!....but most of those points came late.....so if they could do what they did for the 1st 3 quarters of that game in December....and i'm sure they will come up with some new schemes and looks for Brady...they will be OK!!....i think it will be a lot closer than expected!!!.....Giants can play loose in that game.....they aren't suppose to be there....and the Patriots are heavy favorites....that can be a dangerous combination!!

Oh god yeah! I am not underestimating the Giants at all . . . just like I didn't the Jags or the Bolts . . .
I agree about the Giants' defense for the first 3 quarters against the Pats but, as you know, the game is 60 minutes long and that has been a common saying in Pats' players press conferences . . . got to play 60.
I have to believe that Bellichick's number 1 focus right now is how to get Moss (2 catches in 2 playoff games) involved more in an arena that will allow Brady to air out a few 50 + yard throws . . . open up the field for Welker and Watson in the middle and give Maroney some room to run . . . if I were Coughlin I think I would have to play conservative and guard with the Cover 2 and see if Maroney can keep up these big numbers . . .
