Giants are nothing special, but the Pats O-line is all jacked up.

Edelman out for the game. Giants up by 7.

Broncos getting murdered 19-0

How to beat the Cheatriots:
1) Be Eli Manning
2) Knock any and all short WRs out of the game.

Do #2 even if you think you cannot win.

Own patriots player just stopped a punt return for a TD from Amendola, Brady going to get a TD here anyway but hilarious stuff.

Haha yep.  Never seen that before. Giants still up 3

[Housh]

I say don't blitz much and hope your front 4 can pressure. As soon as you start calling blitzes and Brady sees a pattern it's gonna be a long game

[Whacked]

OF COURSE, Pats are up now and have the ball. 7 minutes left.

As long as you don't screw it up like Coughlin did, that's how you beat the Patriots.

[reuben.ahmed]

Coughlin should retire during the news conference, have some self respect and respect for his team, lol.

I didn't think the Giants had a chance this game, pretty crazy they were beating them once again
with that pathetic team. The Patriots are very beatable is what i take from this game.

Weird day though man, lots of crazy outcomes i did not see coming.

Hopefully it is not the same tomorrow.

and how did he do that.. he the best time and they lose on a last second field goal after a drop Int.. if you think playing it safe against NE has worked in the past... think again... even if they ran a play before 2 minute warning.. Brady would still have had something like 90 seconds to drive for a field goal.. plenty of time.

The Pats typically don't make mistakes, especially not late, like the fumble at midfield late or the interception late inside the 5.

I'm not about to write-off Tom Brady or even bet against him, but he doesn't look near as confident to me as he has most of his career where he just jogs onto the field like "I own this game."

It's not plenty of time considering they needed every last second to attempt a long field goal.  If coughing would have run it from the 5 instead of passing it 3 times, they may have taken a bit more time off of that clock.  Running it 3 times instead of passing it 3 times would have given the Patriots the ball back with less than a minute to play.

I dislike the Patriots............alot! I wish they would lose............alot! That is all.

Not positive at work and have not reviewed it.

But it seemed on the last catch before the FG the WR fell to the ground without being touched when he seen defenders there.
Why not just stand over him without touching and let time expire? He is not down until touched.

Could be wrong on WR not being touched and or rule. Just was curious if this could or should have been done.

Even if so it would take a savy player to realize this in realtime.

Don;t you understand that you can't replay everything the Patriots did on the last drive with a different time on the clock to start out.  Regardless running the ball or not, they would have had around a minute to go... Brady and a minute is plenty of time especially when you have the best kicker in the NFL.  I would rather have forced New England to go for a TD with 2 minutes or less by scoring a TD by the Giants... They should have scored a TD but  Beckham dropped the ball and their DB dropped a INT.. sorry the Coach can call the game and play the game.. players failed to seal the deal.....

If a runner goes to the ground and "gives himself up", the ref blows the play dead there.

This.  Passing it three straight times from the 5 was beyond stupid.

Edelman is probably gonna be out at least until next year. He'll probably be back by the playoffs. If the Pats get a bye week, he should be back for the game after the bye.
