Update: New England enters 18-0 and loses to the NY Giants in one of the best superbowl games to watch in a long time!  This shocked the world and me!  Congrats G-Men! 

We all thought New England would win but it was not the game we expected!  The G-Men looked strong and Eli look ready as they shocked the Pack.  Brett has had a great career but this was not one of his better days.  The coaches failed to adjust and took the ball out of a solid RB's hands and relied on a struggling QB.

Green Bay vs. NY Giants- Green Bay- Okay, give the G men their due.  They outplayed and wanted this game more.  Eli stepped up and played in the right areas and right pass zones.  They will be huge underdogs but anything can happen this year- Incorrect

San Diego vs. New England- New England- I know that there are many haters but they are an amazing team.  Brady had one of his worse games of the year but the RB'S took over and the defense turned back the Chargers in the red zone.  It was a game the Pats almost gave away but losing LT made a difference and playing a hurt QB did not help.  They will be expected to win but better play much better in the SB.  Something tells me Brady will be much better and the sleeping Moss will wake up for that game.- Correct

It would have been great to see Brady and Brett but Eli had different plans. He has quietly made a difference and as long as he stays in the system and does not try to be something he is not; he will be decent.  Brady has a shot at history and his fourth super bowl.  You can like or hate him but he is one of the best QB's to play in the NFL. The team carried him Sunday but his leadership has built a team that helps each other.  Eli will have to be mistake free and there has to be a few mistakes to make this game close.

I guess the Giants had more passion and Eli was ready to prove everyone wrong again.  Congrats Giants Fans!!!!

I have been saying that about Eli all along. He's not his brother but he can play well when asked too. Judging by the weather forcast in Green Bay it's going to come down to the running game and run defense. For that I think it's advantage Giants.

The Patriots/Chargers game is a no contest. It's going to be New England in a run away.

Pats vs. GBay- will be fun to watch. Probally biggest watched game because of the love of the game and the hate of a team...

Didnt we do this SB back in 1996 or something? I hope Brett gets another ring.

If the SB is anything other than Pats vs GB, I won't watch. Any other combination will be a blowout.

I agree.

Green Bay by 4. The early weather forecast is cold (8 degrees) and possible snow.
New England by 16.
If this GB vs. NE matchup materializes, it will be like the good guys (GB) and the bad guys (NE). People split on wanting to see the Pats go undefeated and others wanting to see anyone beat them. Especially a 38 year old QB.

FYI Brett Favre has a ring from SB XXXI. I'm just gonna pull for the NFC champion despite the fact of how much I hate Eli Manning, but I don't hate him nears as much as Randy Moss or the Chargers.

Yeah, I knew about his ring. He went back to back and lost the second.
