The NFC have won the toss 14 years in a row. And NE is 1-9 this year when not calling the toss.

I took a very small fun wager on the Giants winning the toss.

For a minute there or to be exact, 2:42 (that was the room number of my hotel) left in the game I thought I was a loser, but after that Tyree catch and Eli scramble, which I like to refer to as "THE PLAY", My buddy said "The Giants are going to win".

I immediately told him to shut up and don't jinx it.

As it turned out, I witnessed History.

Because had NE won I would have been there for the first ever 19-0 or if the Giants won it will go down in History as the Greatest upset in SuperBowl History. Bigger than the Jets or even the Pats vs. Rams. By the way, I bet and was rooting for the Pats that day.

No matter what, we all can agree that this is going to be a Historic game, I hope the Giants win but even if the Pats do, we will witness one of the all time greatest games, I guarantee it.

I have only predicted the outcome of the last 10 Super Bowls, the last time I lost was 2000 when my heart was for the Giants and I watched that game from jail, got arrested a week before the game.

Anyway have fun posting, we only have 2 days left, may the best team win!

What?

NEW ENGLAND - 3

Denver was 8-8 my man. If you wanna count the Steelers win to make them 9-8, that's fine.

Someone send a memo to Brady reminding him he ain't playing Buffalo or Miami no more. This is REAL DEAL baby!

It's all about being healthy & hot at the right time. Giants are playing 1000x better than they did in the regular season.

Then again, who knows I just fuckin hope the Giants win! A fumble here, a dropped pass there could be the difference. Gonna be a stressful day.

Patriots -2.5 and the Over (54)

This is a chess match between two master coaches, last to have the ball wins. Xfactor: Myra Kraft. Pats are motivated, and professionals. Tom Brady has revenge on his mind. Giants were on a roll....with the layoff, they are bound for a dud. Giants are favored in media, Pats are underdogs. Pats win by a field goal, 31-28 final score.

good luck to everyone!

Myra Kraft was a wife of an owner, not a famous coach or player, when that happens it's different motivation wise.

The Giants have a feel good story of their own:

LB Mark Herzlich. He fought and won bone cancer after being told he might never play Football again.

Funny thing is, he actually went to Boston College.

Can anyone make any sense of this?

Yeah, I dont really understand this line.

So every where I read everyone has the Giants winning by 3-4 pts and im guessing that the betting community is betting the same way as of now, but why is the spread staying the same or only dropping a half point.

My two cents, I bet the Giants and the Pats both alot this year, and both had had their disappointments to me, but just going off my bets the Pats O when clicking is supper dangerous, and fun to watch and my biggest and bet of the year was Pats Denver when all the buzz was on Tebow. (my second biggest bet on the year was Pats Buff

) Im not sure...

I was at the Giants Packers game and if not for those somewhat weak turnovers that game could have had a big turn. Maybe Im just steaming off of that game still I did bet the Niners and lost...

And so it goes..One for the ages..Eli {"I dont wanna go to San Diego"} Manning versus Tom {'I`m pick 199 in the 6th round"} Brady..Tom C `n Bill B are mates like the flower pot men..So for me this is a pick `em.. Ah however Vegas begs to differ..So what?? What a lot...The line has not moved significantly..Meaning that the books are either A:Gonna get hosed on the highest turnover game of the year dollar wise or B equal action either side says that this game is not one should wagering on to make serious kahunas..This game has been broken down from every friggin angle that there is nuffin left too cap but the confusion...Coin toss?? Perhaps..Still I see the merit in a chest pump and nice lunch.... Mon-E fades the Gigantes and I`m gonna get all over the Pats like a rash after Madri Gras..However due to visiting hours being greatly reduced for us nutcases I cannot wait for mi amigo just wish him the best of luck and hope for his sake that I am wrong and that his boys do it..
Quick cap sees that pass rush by the Giants will negated by Bill B shoring up the middle or quick two step passes by Brady..Balanced with a running game in the red zone where the Pats frequent more than any other team I can see the Pats putting up the numbers.. I think Woodhead will be the star on this day..Pats D can be questionable however they`re adept at stopping the run,it`s their secondary that can be the problem..Look fr Edleman to have better game and McCourty to get an int...BOL to all my fellow funked up souls...
PATRIOTS-6.5-[+180]

Best Prop bet!

Who will have more?

a.) Raptors + Heat total Combined Points +99.5 @ +115

b.) Eli Manning Gross Passing Yards -99.5 @ -135

No Brainer! If you chose door number 1, you are correct!

Example:

Heat and Craptors wil score we'll say 175 (and that's a low estimate,could be 200).

So 175 + 99.5 = 274.5

That would mean Eli would need to throw 375 yds against the Pats for you to lose (375 - 99.5 = 275.5)

NY Will be "trying" to run in this game all day IMO.

It's Funny how The Giants won the NFC title in overtime just like they did 4 years ago.

Close game in the first half. Don't see Bradycheck losing to the G-men AGAIN in the Super Bowl or AGAIN this season. San Fran should've beat Giants...punt returner cost Harbaugh or he'd be here. Giants run was a good one but I'm afraid that's all she wrote.

Pats -3

Pats -2.5

GL to all!!!!

Yep here goes

NE has the better QB and the more potent offense-everyone says that NE D stinks, and yes it's not good, but NY has given up more ponts per game this season so what does that have to say about them???

I'm taking: NY+1 and under at the half but switching it up and taking NE hopefully- 2.5 and the under 54 for the final.

BOL to all...

Since 2004, the results after a two week layoff to prepare are as follows:

NE 9-4 SU NY 6-4 SU
NE 4-8-1 ATS NY 4-5-1 ATS

Belidick prepares his team to win this one in a close game.

Here's some info i got off a Las Vegas radio show yesterday, the Pats always defer and the Giants always take the ball. So for people who bet, who get's the ball first, maybe this will help.

If the Giants run the ball well this will be a blowout. There is talk about a no huddle offense for NE all week, this could back fire and turn into fast 3 and outs. Giving the ball to the Giants who, if their run game is on , can turn into 10 minute drives.

IF Edelman is playing DB how well can he tackle Jacobs or Bradshaw? I would run to his side and make him alittle gun shy.

Brady does not like to be hit, many times he looks at the ref when he gets tackled. When the Giants get inside of his head, he will show it. Let's hope he reads his own press and thinks he's better than he is. Did anybody see Brady's new house? This guy must have some kind of Ego. When the wheels start coming off it's going to show big time.

Giants 37 NE 24 (NE last minute garbage TD)

Good teams win games, Great teams cover the spread!

You can have Carlos go to a website like grammarcheck.net. He can enter his sentences before saying them so they come out coherent.

Would be a great bet, however you are adding the 99.5 twice instead of once.

You add 99.5 to whatever the heat and raptors score so if they score 175 you add 99.5 = 274.5 so Eli would only have to throw 275 for you to lose....

If you want to talk about PPG you have to compare the competition each team faced. The Giants schedule was much tougher...

I though he said you had to subtract 99.5 from Eli's total?????

Who is the horse here? I am going with what I consider reality.

If I am going to wager on this game...Give me the better Quarterback.

I'll take Brady. Eli scares me. He even looks soft.

Clip this statement out and place it on your fridge. Take Brady and the Pats!

No- that is not my reason for taking New England. I was responding to several posters that stated that the Pats had not beaten any teams with a winning record. However my game analysis reveals New England is a better team than NY. Anyway- GL on your Giants wager(Tell me how it turned out for you after the game!)
