So that was probably the best SuperBowl I can remember. Sure, the Steelers’ victory in SuperBowl XL was the most satisfying, as my Steelers pulled it out. But this was the first game I was pretty much glued to… there was no room for error, and every mistake or great play could well be “the play of the game.” The first two drives gave a preview of a “field goal for touchdown” type game. But then the defenses stepped up and kept up until the fourth quarter, when both QBs started to pass more and make key drives.
At the end of the day, the Patriots’ D blinked first, and Eli and the Giants managed to pick up two touchdowns in exchange for one, defeating the undefeated. Wow.
Oh, and I was rooting for the Giants… mostly because I was rooting against Belichek. But that’s just me.
