The Pats offensive line has been eaten alive this half.

7-3 Patriots at halftime. Both defenses were great in that half stopping the others offense. Both offenses weren't so great missing some good chances to capitalize.

thought we'd have more scoring after the first two drives but the defenses have taken over.

Two feet on the ground is irrelavant, you have to show a catch and a football move,
there was no football move on that play

NE gets the ball first in the 3rd quarter, and really need to drive for a TD.

Pats O-line has been terrible. I think Brady got hit more in that half than he did the entire season. Good on the Giants pass rush.

And that's what NE does.
The fact of the matter that the half-time is longer than a regular game also helps the Pats gameplay for the opening drive.

Some great chances.
I'm sure there are a lot of disappointed people out there, but hey, defense is fun to watch too.

You could say they've been horrible or if you've watched the GMan during the post season, they have had been playing lights out in the front.
Either way the battle in the trenches on both sides of the ball have been great.
I love defensive ball more than anything.

Forget about the Over. Forget about NE beating the spread.

Considering the NFL is the most successful pro league out of the 4 in North America, I guess a lot of people would disagree with you.

NE has played a lot of close first halfs lately, then went on to take control in the second half. The extra time at the half is huge for Bill in making adjustments. But, I think this game remains close right to the end.

You are so arrogant.
Did you bother to read what I was replying to? Oilfan said that he was bobbling it as he came down. I said both feet were on the ground before the ball moved.

I think this upcoming possession will a huge portion of the game. If the Giants can stop the Patriots or limit them to a FG they have a good chance. If the Patriots march down field for a TD and make it 14-3, the Giants are in huge trouble as they'd have to pretty much score on every possesion there on out due to the fact you know NE would put up some points after that as well.
