Let's not forget my preseason Super Bowl pick...New England vs Dallas.
Looking pretty good right now, early as it is.  |
I thought it was a tough game and Giants were very good against the run and ran a number of blitz packages that gave the Cowboys a challenge. Their defense was way better than in the first game. But I think people aren't noticing that the Cowboys defense is good and getting better. That and Owens was just a complete mismatch for the Giants as really the only way they stopped him was by grabbing him, tripping him and whatever else they could get away with. Otherwise he was key on a couple of drives to keep them going and of course burned them twice.
Giants could indeed comeback yet again as they have rallied from looking useless to coming in with a chance to win a big one in the division race. They didn't quite get it done but by end of the season they could get another crack by getting in via the wildcard.
