Still, smart money would be on NE, no matter their opponent. Giants are in a groove though, and if they might also get some guys healthy before the big game. One thing's for sure: In the playoffs the hottest and healthiest team almost always prevails.
Me, I'm pulling for SF at this juncture, just because I like they're style and spirited play. NE vs that defense would be a fun ride.
A SF vs. NE SB game would be a fun match.
