Well, if we’re looking for fault, I would go with Brett

Wrong again. The Giants stopped the Packer running game cold, so instead of plugging away they abandoned it completely. ...fairly early on. That's bad coaching.

The Giants' running game started slowly as well, but they kept at it and eventually found some holes. Coughlin stuck to the game plan.

Yes, all you said is true, yet despite that the game went to overtime and Brett threw a bad pass and the Giants intercepted.

I agree. If a team can’t run the ball they are doomed - especially at this level of competition. I’m not a Giant fan, but I thought they played solid, tough football against the Cowboys and now the Packers. I think they can beat the Patriots. It should be a good, close game. Both teams have great defensive teams and quarterbacks. I’m looking forward to it.

Eventually started using Bradshaw is more like it. He was really the one who gave them the shot at the winning FG.
