It looks like everybody is going to turn on their TV’s on Sunday and get flashbacks from the past five years, same story repeats time and time again, one powerful AFC team against a weak NFC team.
The odds for a Patriots victory are ranging from 79% to 88.5% according to diferent statistics sites whom based this numbers on a few factors including recent victories, points per game, etc.
Even Sportsbooks are setting the odds at -12 for the Pats, a really high line considering that Tom Brady is coming out of a foot injury and Randy Moss is going through personal difficulties that are pushing his thinking away from Sunday’s game.
So on one side we have a Patriots team with his two stars lacking strengts, and on the other, we have the Giants, who are entering the Superbowl with a Eli Manning eager to silence all of his critics and who is going through a great moment, so I’ll let you decide, but I am just guessing a difficult game for New England.
Now, remember the Superbowl from 2001? I am sure the Giants does, as they fell to the Ravens 34-7, and only two players from that team will see action again: Michael Strahan and Amany Toomer. When asked on the Patriots 18-0 record, Strahan responded: “I’m not looking for them to get history. It’s history for our players to get them a ring in their first Super Bowl.”
Giants Champions? That will probably have more impact than the Patriots winning their 19th, as if New York wins, they would be proud to have stolen the merits to the best team in NFL history.
