Apparently not as much PAIN as you received from your "Easy Pick".  I wouldn't come back and face the music either after I made the dumbest proclamation in the history of Covers.  One word: ELI.

Anyone know what these props are?

-Hakeem Nicks scores a TD

-Cruz total yards receiving

It's the Superbowl, let amateur hour begin.  Reading some these lame, inaccurate posts makes me laugh.  How have the Giants been getting all the calls?  Do you really think Brady is going to put up 37 points? 

The Giants should win this game.  Their defense will be able to make more stops.  With that said, that's why they play the game.  Not buying into the questions around the line.  The Giants matchup well against the Pats.

The play is Giants +3 and ML.

Short Answer: No

Stats can be misleading.  The Giants D was at the bottom for the majority of the season.  But these past 6 weeks or so have been a different story.  That's where the difference is in this game.  The Giants can get a consistent pass rush with 4 and drop everyone else back. 

Yea...and the Pats were something like 27-1 at home after a loss when they played the Giants in the regular season and we saw what happened in Foxboro. It's the Superbowl...neutral field...throw the trends out. 

Both teams can score, I just think the Giants have a few more stops in their defense.

Get a clue.  You obviously haven't been watching this season unfold.  Even if Belichek is able to take away Cruz, which I don't think will be easy, Nicks and Manningham will burn them.  What's he going to do?  Put Julian Edelman on him?  Give me a break.

Are you comparing the Giants to the Jets because of similar schedule situations?  Last year the Jets had a great defense, but an offense that stuggled mightily at times.  The Giants (the last 4 weeks version) have a a dangerous and effective defense to go with an explosive and efficient offense.  I don't see San Fran scoring enough points to win this game.  Also, I don't see Alex Smith having another game like he did last week.  What makes you think the Niners D will get after Eli?  Have you watched the Giants play in recent weeks? The Giants Offensive line has showed no signs that they can't handle a 4-man rush and Eli has shown he will beat the blitz everytime.  It might be close at the end, but I'll take Eli with the ball in the 4th quarter before Alex Smith. 

Stop embarassing yourself.  The pot calling the kettle black.  You're Username should be 49erBiased. 

Let me just say this...the 49ers and a very sound team and they can win the game.  But if the Giants continue to play like they have the last 4 weeks, they are not losing.  Are you trying to convince yourself that the 49ers are better?  Such was the case for pretty much the entire season, but as of today, the Giants are the better team.  We don't need to see how many pro bowlers they had or who's offensive line you think is better...

Put your money where you think it should go and let's see what happens. 

I will say this...I don't like the odds of Alex Smith having back to back great games and the Giants defense is not the Saints defense.

I wouldn't be too confident putting my money against the Giants right now.

Good Luck

Alex Smith just had the game of his life - I don't like the odds of him playing that well in consecutive weeks.

The Giants Defense is NOT the Saints defense.  Yes, SF scored 36 points, but they will be lucky if they score half that many this Sunday.

With the way the Giants have been playing on all three phases, I don't know how you can take the Niners with any confidence.

Yea taking the home team all the time is a great strategy.  Get a clue dude.

I'll save you the time, Alex Smith DOES NOT have more fourth quarter comebacks or red zone efficiency than Eli.

If you have been following whatsoever for the last month or so, you can throw those stats out.  The Giants D was in disarray for most of the season, but have gotten healthy and on the same page these last 6 weeks and are probably the most dangerous defense in the NFL right now.  Keep talking about their porous pass defense, it's inconsequential right now...look at the last 6 performances by the Giants defense and get back to me with your statistics..

Rested team?  They will have had one more day of rest, let's not call this a factor.

Giants haven't had trouble playing away...what do they have 4 consecutive road playoff victories?

How can you say better coaching?  Is there a stat that proves this?  Tom Coughlin has a Superbowl ring on is finger, Harbaugh is the flavor of the month.

Enough offense?  What exactly does that mean?  If I was arguing for the Giants, I would use explosive offense, or consistent offense, or dangerous offense....NOT ENOUGH OFFENSE.

Seems to me you are reaching a little bit.  I will say the Niners run defense is the best I have ever seen.  But plays can be made against their secondary.  Eli is so locked in with all three of his receivers, I have no doubt the Giants will make enough plays.  The Niners won't be able to do much against a much improved and confident Giants defense.  If the refs don't make that ridiculous non-fumble call or the phantom roughing the passer on Rodgers, GB doesn't score a TD and finish with 6 points.  The game before that, they shutout the Atlanta Offense.  Both of these teams are head and shoulders above the Niners on offense.  Not to mention, the Niners just let up 30+ points on their home field.

So let's relax a little bit.  You tell people to explain why yet the reasons you give for your pick are amateur at best. 

Take the Giants and the points, bye the hook.  And take them Moneyline, best of luck   

How bout that congratulations

Chill with the red font Capernicus.  You don't have a clue.  Let's just discount the way that the Giants have been playing the last 3 weeks.  That will make a really smart bet.  If you've watched this team play recently, they are clicking on all cylinders.  They looked like garbage most of this year, but now they look tougher than ever. 

That is the most ridiculous statement I have ever read.

The Giants are the better team in every facet of the game.  With some new additions in the short offseason, they were a bit slow getting into a rythym at the start of the season.  I expect them to build off last weeks win.  I expected this line to be more like 3.5.  All over the Giants.  The Cardinals just lost to the Seahawks.
