It's because they don't know any better. If you're force fed something, you don't have a choice but to like it

Real football is European football

Finally starting to throw the ball down field over the middle. That'll force the defense to fall off the line a bit and open up the run a bit more.

Wow, this truly is a battle of the defense. Both defenses are playing great.

7-3 Patriots end of the 3rd quarter. This upcoming drive is big. Giants need to put points on the board. They don't have too many chances left.

I'm with you on this. Both defenses have been so great and 3rd and 5 or 6 situations are my favorite to watch as a fan. There's been a lot of those.

NE did well to drive the ball out of their end.

Only 10 points after 3 quarters?

If the Pats don't score again, opting to not kick the FG is going to be considered one of the worst play-calling blunders of all time.

Manning has been deadly on 3rd down today. Should be a helluva finish.

I think that might be enough for the Giants. This possession will probably decide the game. The Pats have done very little on offense and the Giants have been good at working the clock. Terrible starting field position for the Pats too, so I think they may be in tough and forced to give up the ball in good position for more Giant points.
