Gregg Williams. I think there would be a revolt if it wasn't. I think the more interesting question will be what happens to the offensive staff and players. Personally, I'd like to keep everyone and give Al Saunders a season where he doesn't have to report to Gibbs, but I'm not sure that'll happen. We might also let Clinton Portis go, which in my opinion would be crazy. I know his contract is too much, but he's a rallying point for our offense.

My 2 picks for Sunday:
New England
Green Bay

However, if I was betting on these games, I'd take the 2 underdogs and the overs

I will be pulling for both home favorites tomorrow. It would set up most exciting Super Bowl matchup in 10+ years easily. And the cool thing is that no matter who would win between the Packers and Patriots, either story would be pretty incredible. 19-0 would be one of the biggest achievements in sports history. And if Favre can pull off the upset at his age, that is just as miraculous.

With the weather and strength of the home teams, I really don't see either game that close tomorrow.

Wow, I'm disappointed i missed almost all of the second game last night. It sounded like quite a thriller. the patriots will of course be the clear favorites to win it all, but if the NY giants can win 10 straight away games, ending with wins at Dallas and Green Bay, maybe they can win one more. We'll see.

Well, since I figured I did end out winning the overall percentage this year, I was going to change my name to bestpersontopickfootballgamesever for a week, but decided against it. Instead, I will correctly predict the final score:

New England Patriots 38
New York Giants 17

The cockiness aside, I'm glad everyone entered,it was fun. FKA, thanks for tabulating.

So any thoughts about the great game last night? Is it the biggest upset in Super Bowl history? It's definitely gotta be up there with Super Bowl 3.

Hey, at least you got the Giants' score right.

Pretty awesome game last night. Most of the time the super bowl ends up being a pretty lopsided game and it's more fun when it's not, like last night.

Random Thought: I wonder if the Manning boys have a third brother who royally sucks at football.

They do have an older brother who was a great football player. Unfortunately, I believe he caught a rare illness that ended his career, though I am not sure what it is.

The game was great last night. The d-line for the Giants was amazing and that 4th quarter by Eli was remarkable. I don't think it was the biggest upset because the Giants are really good too, it's just that no one else gave them a shot. If you took their records and how they played in January then you would have said that the game ended exactly as you thought it would.
