I just read on Yahoo! that the Patriots coach ran across the field to shake hands with 0:01 remaining, then retreated into the locker room. Then the fans started to rush the field before the game was officially over.

That was indeed very un-sportsmanship like of him, but on the other hand, one knows that he was under a lot of public and self pressure to earn a perfect record for the season...I kinda feel sorry for him, but a good game is a good game.

Congratulations!

Hooray for the G-Men!! The Pat's thought they had the Game won before kick-off. Football is life. Never quit, never surrender and never say die. And believe, victory will follow.

Wow...as much as I was hoping the Giants would pull off the upset, I didn't honestly think they could do it. I stand corrected.

This is the first time in my life I've seen a Super Bowl. Man, I can't wait for the second.

Congrats, Giants!

this was quite a super bowl to be your first. The manning family is just spiting out champions. This is probably the best super bowl I have ever watched.

Yes, excellent game. Rare.

Never say never. What a game. Free Agency 3/1 or thereabouts.

The Giants won the 2 best Super Bowls; XXV and XLII.

I hope that this win does not mean more Payton and Eli commercials, but I suppose it will.

Anyone who watches ESPN as much as I do is not looking forward to more Manning commercials.

After Eli's win yesterday, IMO, Peyton has a hill to climb. Anyone who won the AFC last year could have beat the Bears, but it took a great QB to beat the Pats.

Peyton was saying now Eli may be the one giving advice. What an epic game, probably will be the best nfl game/superbowl of all time. The 3rd and 5 conversion during the last minute of the game was unbelievable.

Yep, that Manning to Tyree play will enter the NFL pantheon. We'll tell our kids we watched that live someday. That incredible moment sealed the deal for me. No way were the Giant's going to lose. The stench of destiny dripped all over the thing.

Many will make that the Pats choked. They did from coach on down. However, NY didn't play a perfect game either and still won despite popular opinion that a flawless performance was required. Here's to the Giants, who overcame four opponents in a row, on the road...talk about earning a trophy; very well done.

good analysis. i've thought that the most underrated aspect of the pats this season was the offensive line. brady was able to throw in a nice pocket all season long...add great receivers like moss and welker (and stallworth), half the quarterbacks in the nfl would have great numbers, too. i do give brady credit for his low interception totals, though. but don't give him time and you see what happens to quarterbacks in the nfl.

I've been blasting Eli all season (hell, the last few seasons), but he was rock solid throughout the playoffs and was mostly spot on last night. Great effort on the defense holding the Pats to just 14.

I smell a sappy sports inspirational movie of the week!!!
