You're right, Brady - in a sense. Burress was wrong - he OVERESTIMATED your ability.
The final score? Brady, your team lost 17-14 to the Giants. Congratulations on your 18-1 season, Chin-boy!
I don't think I've ever been so stressed during a football game - the fourth quarter was just epic. Eli Manning came through and had a great game; in the fourth quarter, with four minutes to score and win, Manning led his team 83 yards in 12 plays to the end zone to clinch the Giants' upset over the Patriots. Playing superbly under pressure, Manning delivered to Burress for the game-winning touchdown.
But my personal favorite moment? An improbably play when, after breaking loose from at least 3 Patriots - what should have been a surefire sack - Manning scrambled down the field and threw a prayer to Tyree, who caught the pass for a game-saving play and 33 yards.
My second favorite play? Watching the Giants sack the Chin for the FIFTH time, with about 28 seconds left in the game. It was a brutal hit, knocking the Chin about 5 years back - beautiful.
Just in case the game didn't make it clear - the Giants' defense is MONSTROUS.
My third favorite moment - watching Belichick and Brady storm angrily off the field, with 1 second remaining and a perfunctory play by the Giants. True, the Giants would take a knee to end the game, but the least you could do, Grump and Chin, was remain on the field out of respect to the better team and their coach, your former colleague. Maybe LT of the Chargers was on to something, when he accused your team of being classless. Enjoy your slice of humble pie, Patriots!
Congratulations to the Giants and their historic 11 consecutive wins on the road, including 4 in the playoff. Their belief in themselves paid off magnificently - they won't ever be taken lightly again.
Congratulations to Eli Manning, MVP - you are the MAN!
What a game!
