That would be interesting! I am still scrolling through pictures of the game, and I'm amazed at some of the still shots. Gotta love how much Brady was sitting on the ground last night instead of passing the football. :)

Watching them in slow motion is fun, too.

IIRC, on one of the post game shows they said he hit the grass 18 times.

Amazing photo. Even more amazing is that Strahan can still make plays like that at the age of 36.

That guy is the best pass-rushing defensive end I've ever seen . . . and that's saying a lot when you consider that I've seen the likes of Richard Dent, Reggie White, Bruce Smith, etc.

Two things that stood out IMO was the Pats going for it on 4th and 13. IIRC, they were in FG range so why not try one.

Secondly, at the end of the game, with 35 ticks left, it appeared that Brady and the Pats just plain gave up. There was no fire to attempt to get within FG range. Sure there was pressure, but Brady could have tried something a little more than he did.

I gues that having spent a good deal ot time picking yourself off the turf, you tend to get a bit gunshy. And the Giants had plenty of them to go around. As a cowboys fan, I say gongrats to the Giants. Way to go. You brought another Vince Lombardi Trophy to the NFC East. The NFC East still holds more of those trophies than any other division.

Was it Eli that got sacked when he ran with the ball but was able to hold onto it with his thighs? WOW!
The other play (the near sack and amazing catch) was so great it overshadowed it and I can’t find anything on it.

It was thing of beauty by the Giants defense and that picture shows it.
