Gisele better whip up a bowl of chowder 'cause her hubby's comin' home with a ring and an mvp trophy. I wonder what "winning the superbowl sex" feels like?

i figured 3.5 and 50 so my first thoughts are under... but we shall see

[Mindsink]

While I can understand the reasoning for the line, I believe the wrong team is favored here.

[Bisket]

The playoffs have been full of close games, so this will be a blowout. Take the ALT line of whichever team you like

^ don't agree with that reasoning.

and if anyone is a capable of blowing the other team out its the giants over pats, no way in hell giants get blown out. which makes teasers on them look pretty damn solid

Why can't the Giants get blown out? They are capable of laying a stinker (see vs. Washington). If New England gets up early, I don't see why the Pats can't blow them out.

Giants going into Colt's stadium will have a home crowd of manning fans and patriot haters.
Pats journey to the bowl much less impressive than the giants'. They beat 2 of the toughest teams in the nfl while the pats beat 1 team that has a shaky road record (4-4) and the denver tebows....

Pats favored makes sense and it doesn't. They get it I suppose because they had a better regular season record and go in as #1 seed. Plus, probably the popularity of them as winners.
As I mention above there certainly ISN'T a home field advantage for the pats so they don't get the -3 for that.

My book has giants +3 +105. Can't say they weren't begging for it.

Oh Boy. What a Big Diff from Feb 2008 where the Pats were favoured -12.5 in that Super bowl Game. Total was in the mid-fifties too and it went way Under (17-14).

Victor Cruz is just fabulous and will be the difference maker.

NYGiants Win Superbowl.

giants can't get blown out because NE's defense is so bad, and the giants offense so good, that even if they fall behind a little early they will have endless opportunities to get back in the game. NE's defense just has no hope of stopping the giants offense consistently.

on the other hand, if brady gets rattled by the giants pass rush early and starts to remember all those hits he took last time around, he may become timid and ineffective and the giants could pull away.

also worth noting the pats have shown zero ability to blow out good teams all year long, while the giants have blown out some very good teams in ATL and GB.

Tnis line was obvious, and unless something drastic happens, there will be very little change in it. As of now, I like the Pats. They could not have played a worse game that they did against Baltimore, and they still managed to win that game. Tjhey also have the revenge factor going. It is payback time for the 2008 Superbowl loss.

pats won only because of a drop and kicker choke job. plus john harbaugh sucks as an in-game coach. not like the pats played bad and won because they are just so much better. was a classic case of a team beating itself.

Giants only won cuz of 2 fumbles an 10 points off them. Sf beat themselves as well right.
