Of course the law of probability says the Pats will lose. It just won't be in two weeks.
True, the Pats have looked vulnerable the last third of the season. But guess what, they still haven't lost. They took everything their opponents have thrown at them and still found a way to win.
Isn't it a bit telling that the Pats offensive juggernaut starting slowing down once the weather started getting ******? I'm no meterologist, but I'm pretty sure there's no rain, snow, sub-zero temperatures or gusty winds in Arizona in early February.
I hate the Giants, but they deserve all the credit in the world for playing their asses off that last game of the season and carrying it over through the playoffs. They certainly proved me wrong in the playoffs by going on the road and beating three pretty good teams. But they are also the same team that blew a 12 point lead with about 20 minutes to play in that last game.
Belichick loves football history. Why else would he allow Flutie to drop kick an extra point? Why else would he put Vinny T in and allow him to throw a TD, letting him get at least one TD in 20 consecutive seasons? It's all a part of history. He and his team may not have said anything publicly about the undefeated season throughout the season, but I can guarantee they've wanted it all year (or at least since it became a legitimate possibility). Belichick wants his name and his team in the history books. Give him two weeks to prepare and correct any mistakes they had in that last Giants game? I'll take those odds.
Pats - 31
Giants - 24
And then Mercury Morris and the rest of those '72 Dolphin blowhards can take their champagne bottles and shove them up their ass.
