What I miss the most from the rugby is the crash tackling the opponents. I loved to give a downed and winded opponent a false cheer after tackling him (some of my tackles were bit late but better to put them under pressure than to play clean :D ). Lots of sweet memories. I remember that one game where I gave the flyhalf hell so that he made lots of mistake like mis-kicking the ball, etc. He was later stretched off. :-P LOL

I thought that was a pretty good game.

When the Pats took a 14-10 lead I thought it was over. Eli took them for a score and won it. Eli alomst got sacked but some how he got out of :-P when he tossed the pass up in the air and Tyree made that catch 8O nice job. When Burress made the game winnig catch I went nuts.

That pass by Eli was basically the only exciting part of the game. That's the ONLY part I've heard people referencing.

The fact that only at the very end of the game did it finally become interesting means to me that overall it was a boring contest.

There's nothing anybody can say to me that will convince me that if the Patriots had played as well as they should have, as they did for almost the entirety of their undefeated season, they would have lost.

The Giants played well, perhaps -- for the Giants. But any decent team could have won when the Patriots played as they did.

The Giants front 4 was in Brady's face all game long.
Thats how you beet Brady get in his face make him throw when he doesn't want to. Brady has not seen that kind of pass rush all season.
The only ohter team that rushed him alot was the Eagles they just came up short. The Giants Defense played a very good game. Brady's timing was off.
