Gaints were just by far the way more talented and complete team. Time to move on to the offseason and hope BB improves the talent on this team so they don't have to rely on jags and special teamers to get the job done in superbowls.All this analysis is over the top.
The Giants D-Line played a bit better than our O-Line.

The Giants DB's played a bit better than our DB's.
End of story ... every game has mistakes ... that is sports. It was because of Brady that the game was so close until he got hit by Tuck ... for the most part the Giants entire team outplayed our entire team.
For the most part we had no business being in the Super Bowl based on our overall team talent except that Brady and his weapons got us there due to an amazing offensive season.

The offensive line was better than a 1.5/5.0 as well. The Giants D-Line is great.
This is such a crock. I agree that ultimately the war was won in the trenches--but you can pretty much always say that.
The Giants were able to consistently pressure Brady due to their defensive game plan. Just like the Jets last year, and just like did in SB42, they were able to take away all Brady's initial reads using only a 3 or 4 man pass rush, forcing him to hold onto the ball too long. The only way you can counter that is 1) for the QB to run it, or at least be able to make plays while scrambling 2) to pound it down their throats and make them respect the run, or 3) have a healthy Gronkowski who is basically unstoppable all year regardless of scheme.
Before this game, most people around here would have said the we did in fact deserve to be in the SB. Before the Baltimore game, it was probably closer to 99%. Bedard made some great points and it's funny that when he praises the Pats certain people call him the best analyst/writer in the local market, yet when he has critical things to say, all the sudden he becomes an unobjective hack.
What I want to know is why can't Brady learn how to run the ball? He's an athletic guy but looks like a moose on a skating rink when he tries to run. What's with that?
He looks like a grandmother whenever he tries to scramble.
While he's not going to become a Mike Vick overnight, surely there is SOME WAY to train up scrambling somewhat?
Having a QB who you know is never even going to TRY to run is a huge disadvantage.
While we can't ever expect him to run much, it would be nice knowing that he at least THINKs about running.
