Patriots dethroned!

Not much to say about 18-1. Giants roughed up the Patriots and in doing so gave themselves a chance to win. It took a few plays bordering on the miraculous, but missed opportunities got the better of the Patriots and all it took the vaunted Red Zone defense was a stumble and an easy score. Ball Game.

Obviously because of the loss, but nonetheless, it gives us amateurs a chance to replay the game with hindsight as if we were coaches again. The Patriots of perfection had taken that from us with their undefeated streak. Now I can say Belichick is not a football god, he is a mortal man. And he made some mistakes in judgment last night. It's just too bad it happened in the Super Bowl.
