Time to post your predictions for Super Bowl XLII.
NYG: 7
Little Tiny Ditkas: 342
I'm not willing to say that Brady has even peaked yet.
Jim Plunkett was 33 and 36 when he won his two Super Bowls.
I think alot has to do with how well the defensive backfield of the Giants can play.
Sorry, but YOU forgot that they have since re-branded those games as Super Bowls I-IV.
Pats 23, Giants 7. (As was predicted in "I Am Legend")
Maybe in the “I am legend” universe, there has been a realignment in pro football.
You haven’t seen the movie, then. Check this out:

38-7 Ravens.
Oh, you’re talking about this years super bowl against the giants.
I predict the game will take entirely too long.
Yeah...but they had much more reliable defenses the first two times around, and probably a little bit better defense the third time.
Part of the offensive explosion is a recognition that other teams can score on them, even if they don't.
Warm weather, fast field, Patriots win BIG...42-14
Didn’t forget a thing. My point was EXACTLY that they weren’t called Super Bowls till AFTER the fact. Furthermore, they didn’t use the Roman numerals till 1971 either.
So, your math stinks! Even if you were correct, that the “Super Bowl” didn’t begin until after the merger, XLII plus 4 still only adds up to XLVI, NOT XLVIII!
Since the merger began with the 1970 season (with the first Super Bowl of the merger era in 1971), 2007 was the 38th year of the merger, with Sunday’s game as the 38th Super Bowl of the merger era, so you’re still wrong.
Sorry to insult you, but did you by any chance attend California public schools in the recent past???
I think the Giants by a touchdown.
Excuse me, you’re right. It should be XXXVLLL. My math is fine, it’s the Roman numerals that are a bit rusty. Now, I won’t insult you by pointing out that you needed to SUBTRACT, not add four games.
Too bad you can’t edit these posts! That last one’s a typo. Will you forgive me? Let’s try XXXLIII. How about that? Make you happy?
I give up! Let’s try XXXVIII. I never claimed a proficiency in Roman numerals!
First round draft pick Aaron Ross (Texas) and second round pick Steve Smith (USC) will, respectively get an interception and 3rd down catches to get it done.
