At least for one day the sun did not rise in the east, pigs can fly and nothing is impossible. In the most incredible upset since David slayed Goliath the little NY Giants beat the invincible New England Patriots.
The NY Giants did something no one else has been able to do in 36 years they made you root for the 1972 Miami Dolphins. Although no one at thenewyorkgiants.com is a Dolphins fan you could not help but root for Miami to be the only undefeated team in the modern era.
We have come up with a nickname for the Giants front four- The Hitmen. The Giants ability to pressure Tom Brady was the biggest reason they won the game. Bill
Belichick’s decision to go for it on 4th and 13 instead of a attempting a field goal will be second guessed forever.
Tiki how do you like Eli’s ability to lead now?
Coach Tom Coughlin’s pre game speech for Super Bowl XLII.
Gather round men. Fist of all let me say how proud of every single one of you I am.
From Eli to our ball boys you have given your all to this team. We have one more mountain to climb. We have been underdogs all year and we wouldn’t have it any other way would we? Nobody thinks we have a chance in hell to win the game let alone keep it close. If we do our jobs and play for the guy next to you we can’t be beat. Remember the most important play is the next play, not the play that just happened or the play two plays from now. I love everyone of you guys in here. Who knows if we will ever get back here. The way the NFL is now if we do get here again it will never be with this group of guys.
We are going to put so much pressure on Brady with our front four that he won’t know what the hell hit him. Eli is going to pick apart their secondary hitting Plax, Amani, and Boss. Our defense is going to hit Moss and Marony so hard that they will give up. Brandon and Bradshaw are going to run all over them like they are a run away train.
We have won 10 straight road games men. Let’s make it one more.
(Coach Coughlin fighting back tears) Remember men their parade is set for Tuesday 11am. Let’s ruin the fu@&* thing.
Men, there is a gleam, a Giant gleam. Focus and finish. Play for the guy next to you.
Finally men if you don’t win this game you will take it to your fu@*% grave. Your fu@*% grave.
GIANTS on 3.
1,2,3 GIANTS!!!!
The Giants were picked to finish last in the NFC East, and after a 0-2 start it was hard to argue otherwise. Even after mounting 6 straight wins the critics didn’t even give the G-Men a second glance, their opponents were considered to be the bottom of the barrel. Coming off their bye week the Giants planted the seed of doubt with a second loss to the Cowboys, confirmed what most already believed, that the Giants weren’t a real threat in the weaker NFC. Some even went as far as to question their ability to make the playoffs. Well… perceptions have clearly changed in the mainstream media but it took winning an NFC championship at Lambeau field in third coldest football game ever to get noticed. Somewhere between a 4 interception game by Eli Manning against the Vikings in week 12 and a combined rushing attack of 294 yards by Jacobs and Bradshaw against the Bills in week 16 the Giants pulled it together…
And I am in no way shocked by what I am seeing from the
Giants in the playoffs. Everybody
around the league is all too familiar with Elis uncanny ability to look scared
and confused as he backpedals only to throw up a wounded duck. But
few paid close enough attention to see his ability to step up in the pocket and
thread the needle. It was these same
people that were aware the Giants had a good pass rush, but doubted their
ability to stop the run and considered their secondary to be Swiss cheese. But it was that Swiss cheese virtually shut
down the likes of Joey Galloway, Terrill Owens, Terry Glenn, and Greg Jennings…
holding each to less than 50 yards… Ah,
but the skeptics would point out the 141 yards Donald Driver hard in the NFC
championship game. And yet, if it were
not for a miscommunication on one play giving up his 90 yard touchdown, he too
would have been held to just 51 yards.
The Giants have seen great play from rookies Aaron Ross and Michael
Johnson and in addition Corey Webster has stepped up considerably. Combined with pressure created from Michael Strahan,
Osi Umenyiora and Steve Spagnuolo’s creative blitz
packages, the tightening of the Giants secondary makes for a solid defense that
maybe, just maybe could be able to slow down the Patriots passing attack. But of course I needn’t even mention the 12
point lead they had in the 3rd quarter in week 17 or how Sam Madison
got hurt right before they gave up the game changer to Moss, but aside from all
of that and the most overlooked of all, is the excellent play of the Giants
special teams. Domenik Hixon and R.W.
McQuarters have provided the G-Men with excellent field position, offering the
Giants a realistic shot keeping up with the Patriots scoring. And if
it has taken you until now to notice the Giants potential you need to get off
my bandwagon!
But don’t take my excitement and optimism for ignorance. I am fully aware that my hopes of Big Blue completing a fairy tale season could be gone in the blink of an eye. That collapse could easily come in the form of penalties, missed field goals, failed red zone opportunities or turnovers… but until the sun sets, my eggs hatch, and the fat lady sings, I’m holding on to the hope that Big Blue sends the Patriots packing with a meaningless 18-1 season.

Hello, I’m Try Wingo and welcome to NFL Live’s coverage of Super Bowl XLII.
We are set to join Giant’s coach Tom Coughlin as he speaks to the Super Bowl media for the first time.
The Giants arrived in Arizona earlier today.
I see coach Coughlin is at the podium let’s go there now.
Please sit down.
First of all let me say how proud I am of my players and coaching staff. The players never lost faith the entire season, even when we started out 0 and 2. The coaches kept the players focused each week on our next opponent.
We have a tremendous challenge ahead of us. We are playing arguable the greatest team in NFL history. We will have to play better then we have all season to just keep it close.
I told the team when we landed that this is first and foremost a business trip. If we take care of business then we will have plenty of time to enjoy Glendale. (If there is anything to enjoy in Glendale).
Any questions?
Coach Chris Mortensen ESPN:
Coach what do you attribute your team’s incredible road success to?
Coach Coughlin:
Mort 2 words. New York Giant pride.
Rich Eisen NFL Network
Coach it is no secret that your son in law is starting on your offensive line. Have you tried to have your other daughter date any current NFL players to try to have them play for the Giants?
Coach Coughlin:
Rich as the Head Coach I leave no stone unturned in improving our team. That being said, yes I have tried to set my daughter up with current NFL players, only Pro Bowl caliber ones though and ones that would fill an immediate need.
Deion Sanders NFL Network:
Coach when Mooch and I do the highlights every week on NFL Network I often criticized you and your team. I am here to say that I BELIEVE IN ELI !!! Coach do you think that someone with my flair for the dramatic could play for you?
Coach Coughlin:
Is it Deion? Did you play professionally and if so for what league? I have never heard of you. I would like to think that I could have anyone play for me. As long as we changed your nickname from Primetime to On Time you could play for me.
Peter King Sports Illustrated:
Coach anything to say to Tiki Barber? As you know he said one of the reasons he
retired was that you took the fun out of the game.
Coach Coughlin:
Peter I’m glad you asked that question. I would like to ask Tiki what does he think is more fun now chatting with Matt Lauer and Al Roker about Hillary and Obama or getting ready to play in the Super Bowl? I wish he had retired sooner we may have been going for a repeat.
Jim Mora NFL Network:
Coach I never had too much success in the playoffs as a head coach. How in the world did you get your team prepared to win 3 straight road playoff games?
Coach Coughlin:
Playoffs? Did you say Playoffs? Playoffs? Playoffs are you kidding me?
This ends the press conference.
