NFL Championship Sunday: Patriots will try to recover from insult to 14-year-old. Plus: Giants vs. Packers vs. cold.
  • The Jints

    Are not the only team with an outside chance of beating New England. Please. Eli vs. Brady in the SB would be a massacre. Manning has a 14-year-old's "Did Dad see that I crashed the car?" look at the best of times. He's mediocre at best, a competent Rex Grossman. Give 'em credit, nice run against very undistinguished competition, but they don't have the secondary or QB to beat New England in a game for all the marbles. And Manning is not a better QB than Matt H.

    And neither do they have the secondary or QB to beat GB in a money game. They're going to have to score anywhere from 21-28 to have a shot at winning, and that ain't happening without a lotta help from GB.

    Remember, the Packers saw the Dallas game. They won't be surprised b the Giants, or tank it like Dallas. GB went down 14 and, unlike Dallas, rose up and kicked ass. The Giants' banged-up secondary is going to be mighty stiff, sore, and abused by Favre and 4 degrees. Favre, unlike Romo, has actually been there, done that, and won. He's seen pressure his entire career. Grant will be running with attitude.

    Sure, anything can happen. But it won't this week. The Giants' overachieving ride ends, and the Packers and Patriots play for it all.
