LOL thats right...defense does not win championships.

the Giants gave up more points than they scored during the season. Basically during the playoffs,its about match-ups.

dont get me wrong, I think its kind of a negative/disgusting stat. But a team that was considered lacking in defense beat SF who's all about D, and beat an offensive juggernaut in the Pat's.

Go figure...?

and the Pats havent won a SB since Vinatieri left ...i'm pretty sure he wasnt in the first SB with the Giants? too lazy to look up right now
