    I'm still not sold on NE. They didn't beat a single team that finished the regular season with an above .500 record. The Ravens were their first such victory and it was a game that NE should have lost...

    In the End, Peyton's brother beats Peyton's nemesis in the house that Peyton built.

    I'm expecting a repeat of NE vs Ravens, only this time the Ravens don't choke.

    One of the first Super Bowls I remember in a while in which I really don't care who wins. I don't really have any positve or negative feelings towards either team.

    I don't see how the Patriots stop the Giants wide receivers. Total mismatch there, and I expect the Giants to exploit it early and often. Very surprised the Pats are the early favorite here. I think the Giants win.

    Giants have been underdogs all season long. I've made a killing on this team in the past 4 weeks, a killing!

    Well I think they should have been underdogs at GB and at SF, I'm just surprised they're underdogs here. I be the final line ends up being very very close though.

    Giants. They are the more balanced team and they have already beaten the Patriots in the regular season.

    I also think the Giants could win by 2 scores.

    Eli has a mediocre game, but they win due to great defense and a miraculous catch. Then somehow Eli gets most of the credit.

    Oh wait, that already happened.

    The Giants are the better team.

    I felt, when the playoffs started that Balt, Pitt, NO. GB and SF were all better than NE and that the Giants were right there with them.

    The Giants have been more impressive in the playoffs, so to me, that puts them ahead of NE.

    And the Ravens were the better team.

    And the Patriots were a better team in 2007.

    Sometimes, it just doesn't work out that way.

    The Giants have the hot hand, but give me the team that went 13-3. Of course I am biased, as I hate all NY teams as a matter of policy.

    What about "Boston" teams?

    I chose New York as who I want to win, but I could see the Pats winning and if I had to bet I'd probably bet on them.

    I loathe the Pats. Then again, I'm a Raiders fan.

    No. My hatred of NY started in 1969 with the Jets and Mets. The Yankees were not that relevant at the time. But in the '70's they became hateful, as did the Giants. Then I just decided to hate all NY teams as a matter of principle, because they are so overpublicized. I never really hated the Red Sox until they won their first WS and their fans got so snooty. And I no longer care enough about football to get worked up over the Patriots. In fact, I enjoy watching Brady do his thing.

    Giants.

    But, like glenn_davis, I really don't care about this game. Been there, done that. Even the "exciting" rematch angle isn't particularly interesting to me, and not just because the Patriots beat the Ravens the way they did. I really wish the 49ers had made it, because the Pats vs. the 49ers would have been such a juxtaposition of styles, similar to the Saints/49ers game. Instead, we get to watch another shootout between two superstar quarterbacks, which seems to be pretty much all we've watched for about the past decade.
