Just heard that Bradshaw didn't hear from Eli to not score until while he was handing off the ballthat would be tough to comprehend when your'e so used to just charging into the end zone.
I'm just amazed that it was only a 50-1 bet. Considering there have been 8 safeties in Super Bowl history. Not sure how many of those led off a game.
I still dont understand why half you guys picked the Pats,and by such large margins? Historically in this big game, stats for the most part dont lie and history has proven that not having a key starter in a game is a detriment.
the game was close relatively speaking, but the Giants did win for all the right reasons. Better defense and more weapons on offense.

Awareness only accounts for so much. If he'd been clear by 10 yards and had no one in front of him, I'm sure he would have stopped. But he wasn't expecting the Red Sea to part. That's one reason the "let them score" strategy isn't used until they're close, because it's much easier for that to happen from 6 yards than from 10 or 15. Even if Bradshaw had been able to stop, Jerrod Mayo was going to shove him into the end zone.

Based on Rivals rankings. 36 of the 53-man roster for the Patriots were ranked by Rivals since its existance. 18 of those 36 were ranked 0-2 stars when they were being recruited.
If they would have batted it down like what is preached it surely would have been a TD for the Pats. New England actually had it executed well if there is ever such a thing on a Hail Mary other than luck. They had two players in the front of the play waiting for the Giants to swat the ball down/forward...they just weren't close enough to the play.
which is basically a rating on physical ability I assume....Belichick seems to do a great job of finding sacrificial smart guys..but thats also a detriment at some skill positions. You need a few physical/fast/athletic freaks in the mix to really scare the other team...obviously, 5 SBs means it works, but the last 4/5 years,thats surely a factor why they didnt finish number 1 ...and I wouldnt be surprised if Gronk doesnt last many years in NE if he doesnt get rid of the kid in him that jumps around shirtless at clubs LOL
