I think he answered those critics by leading the game-winning drive last night. What an incredible play he made escaping from the Patriots' rush, avoiding the sack and making the long completion to David Tyree on third-and-five. I've had great appreciation for the Patriots and Bill Belichick for a while, but I was rooting for the Giants late in the game.</p> <p>One bad thing about the Giants' upset win -- we will have to continue to listen to Mercury Morris rant about the greatness of the '72 Dolphins every time an NFL team starts the season with an undefeated run.</p> <br class="clear" /> Mon, 04 Feb 2008 11:17:44 -0600 Brent Schacherer comment 765 at http://www.independentreview.net http://www.independentreview.net/community/lyle-diekmann/giant-surprise Wow. I'm still shocked Eli Manning did what he did in the fourth quarter to win that game for the Giants. Manning went toe-to-toe with Tom Brady in the fourth quarter of the Super Bowl and was the better player on the better team. I gave New York little chance to win, but I'm happy to see the Giants keep the Patriots from perfection. We can't have them winning every Super Bowl. http://www.independentreview.net/community/lyle-diekmann/giant-surprise#comments Sun, 03 Feb 2008 23:01:34 -0600 Lyle Diekmann 2441 at http://www.independentreview.net
