Ecchh...they’ve dusted off Tom Petty for the halftime show.

I never liked him when he was current..

I was hoping Tom P would sing “Don’t do me like that!”

Yep....Kenny Stabler and Dave Casper fumbling and rolling the ball in the end zone on the last play of the game..

And Pete Banaszak.

Off target? The pass would have hit the receiver in the belt buckle if he hadn't batted it in the air. I hope all his passes are that "off-target."

The ball was perfectly thrown, I mean perfect. It was thrown so that the reciever could catch it easily while the defender had no chance of knocking it down without interfering.

Pats have shown they can’t get any pressure with their front four and have to blitz. Giants can take advantage of that in the second half. Pats need to work the running game better, Mahoney is their only bright spot so far.

Definately not the greatest team ever even if they pull this one out. Too weak on the D side of the ball.

I saw Petty back in the late 80’s... guy comes out and starts and does something like 90 minutes straight of nothing but number one hits.

He recorded one heck of a lot of good stuff.

"Must be the commercial writers are on strike too."

I loved the Budweiser Clydesdale one, but, the rest have been weird.

So far the commercials on the Puppy Bowl ,on Animal Planet have been much better.

Is “American Girl” a cover or did he originally sing it?

The Giants have a very fast defensive line. This team had no business losing 6 games this year.

You can negate their speed with some quick hit plays, draws, etc. You also have to lean on them and make them respect the run. Lastly, if the Pats are going to be stubborn and try to force the ball to Moss they will get Brady killed. If they are smart then Welker gets the ball at least 15 times next half, Faulk should be getting at least 8-10 touches and Maroney should be getting some hand offs to go between the tackles.

You know that the Pats coaches are screaming at the O-Line right now as they are the weakest link.

It’s the wonders of lip synching and animatronics.
