20 Preview - Super Bowl 46 - Giants
(12-7) vs Patriots (15-3)
The Patriots
are on a 10 game win streak, having beaten the Broncos and then the Ravens in
their two post season games. The Broncos were no match and went down 42-10. The
Ravens were a much tougher battle, but they came up short on a missed field goal
that would have tied the game. The Patriots prevailed with a 23-20 victory that
moved them on to Super Bowl 46. The last game the Patriots can remember losing
was way back on Nov 6, 2011, but it was to the Giants 24-20. The
Giants are on a 5 game win streak, including their 3 post season wins over
the Falcons 24-2, the Packers 37-20, and the 49ers, 20-17. That last game was
their toughest to win as the 49ers tied things up with a field goal in the fourth
quarter. Neither team scored after that and the game went into overtime with the
new rules being explained. After three possessions, the Giants special teams unit
made their second big play of the game causing a turnover that led to the ensuing
field goal to propel the Giants into Super Bowl 46.

More Than Just A Catch | 
Super Bowl XLII | basement fixing
Feb 5 Patriots
release WR Tiquan Underwood the night before the Super Bowl. A mere 24 hours
before the Super Bowl, the Patriots made their final transaction in a year full
of them. In one of the coldest moves ever, the Patriots released WR Tiquan Underwood
and promoted DE Alex Silvestro. Tom
Brady faces rematch with Giants' 'ghost' pressure in Super Bowl XLVI. It happened
three seconds after the snap, on the first play of the third quarter in the Giants'
game against the New England Patriots in Foxborough, Mass., 12 weeks ago Sunday.
Tom Brady flinched. For no apparent reason. Do
the Giants still have Tom Brady's number or not? And does Eli have theirs?
Talk about all the rest of it, the Patriots' no-huddle and the Giants' pass rush,
Victor Cruz and Wes Welker and Eli Manning and what he has done in the fourth
quarter this season, talk about Bill Belichick and Tom Coughlin and whether you
think the Giants' five-game winning streak somehow trumps the Patriots' 10-game
winning streak. Knock yourself out. By
every right, by every conventional measure, the Giants were a dead team walking
on Dec. 13, coming out of MetLife Stadium. There was no way imaginable they could
be playing Sunday inside Lucas Oil Stadium for a Super Bowl title. Yet they are.
Nobody comes back from four straight defeats. In
this wide-open, pass-happy era, Bill Belichick has somehow managed to turn
second-year tight ends Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez into matchup nightmares.Gronkowski
and Hernandez combined for 169 receptions for 2,237 yards and 25 touchdowns this
season. They accounted for 43% of Brady's 39 touchdowns and 42% of his 5,235 yards. You
know all about the new paradigm at tight end (see: Gronkowski, Rob and Hernandez,
Aaron), but quietly, the slot receiver has also grown in importance. Victor Cruz
and Wes Welker both went undrafted, but the league now views quality slot targets
as commodities. Instead
of using defensive linemen as rushers in practice, coach Bill Belichick had
much lighter players - mostly linebackers - attack the unit from all angles. They
won't replicate the size of the Giants players, such as the 6-foot-3, 255-pound
Osi Umenyiora. So they focused on the speed. Offensive line coach Dante Scarnecchia
said, "They're undersized, but we just have them going as fast as they can
go, just giving us the fastest tempo they can give us. That's been a huge help." Four
years ago, the Giants created a lifetime of memories by preventing the Patriots
from completing their undefeated season with one of the greatest upsets in Super
Bowl history. It also created a forever bond between the players. They achieved
the ultimate together. There are 15 Giants remaining who played in Super Bowl
XLII who will play Sunday night in Super Bowl XLVII against New England at Lucas
Oil Stadium. Linebacker Mathias Kiwanuka would make it the Sweet 16, but he suffered
a broken leg late in the 2007 season and didn't play in the Super Bowl. He will
play Sunday night. To
see a team go from crisis to champions, from fire-the-coach to plan-the-parade,
is unusual. To see a team do it twice, in a span of four years, might be unprecedented.
Enjoy it. Cherish it. And don't let the win-or-else mentality drain the joy from
the experience. | Giants

New York Giants Kitchen Towel Combon | Feb
4 Osi
Umenyiora cares little about sacking the quarterback. Instead, he aims for
the elusive strip sack. It is a tricky move, one that teammates admire and opposing
offensive lineman fear. And in his nine years in the NFL, Osi Umenyiora has made
it his signature move. Giants
running back Ahmad Bradshaw wasn't expected to practice Friday and he did
not, sitting out the team's final full workout before Super Bowl XLVI against
the Patriots on Sunday. Tom Coughlin said Bradshaw's right foot "was a little
sore" but the coach did not seem concerned. The
Patriots have sworn up and down this past week and a half that avenging the
Super Bowl XLII loss to the Giants is not a factor in Sunday's rematch. Rodney
Harrison, who was a safety on that New England team and is now an analyst for
NBC, says they're lying. "It's crap," Harrison said. Super
Bowl XLVI: Inside the matchups as the NY Giants battle the New England Patriots.
Eli Manning has the edge against the Pats' defense. Manning loves to attack a
defense piecemeal as he reads his way to his last checkdown. No one has been better
throwing under duress this season. The
Giants' much-maligned defense, which has had six outstanding weeks after a
season of misery, has to figure out a way to shut down the second-ranked offense
in the league. They have to stop Brady, contain the slippery Wes Welker, and figure
out some way to simultaneously cover New England's two big, fast and powerful
tight ends, Rob Gronkowski and Aaron Hernandez. Do
the Giants have another David Tyree in the wings this Super Bowl? The surprise
star for the Giants in this Super Bowl does not have to catch a desperation pass
up against his helmet to be the next David Tyree. But wouldn't it be perfect if
he did? Rookies
at Super Bowl? Preposterous. For almost two weeks now, Tyler Sash has tried
to stay out of David Diehl's way. Because every time Diehl, the veteran offensive
lineman, catches sight of Sash, the rookie safety, he shakes his head, frowns
and mutters something: "You lucky rookies. Your first year in, and you're in the
Super Bowl? How is this fair?" Special
teams' Giant Three share a special bond. These were the three men whose final
work sent the Giants to Sunday's Super Bowl date with the Patriots, when Zak DeOssie's
snap, Steve Weatherford's hold and Lawrence Tynes' clutch overtime kick earned
the Giants the NFC title. Eli
Manning is in his second Super Bowl with a chance to mark himself as the greatest
quarterback in Giants history. Pressure? Where some run away from it, Manning
has spent his life leaping headlong into the cauldron. If
he wins on Sunday, if Eli Manning pulls off another fourth-quarter comeback
or merely beats the Patriots, his two Super Bowl titles will land him on a pedestal
reserved only for New York's greatest sports icons. 10
things to know about Eli Manning. Behind the laid-back exterior, he's a driven,
confident, karaoke-singing prankster. Manning is low-key when he's standing in
front of a podium at a news conference, but when he's holding a microphone and
the music starts blaring from a computerized sound machine, he's an entirely different
animal. Ben
Kiwanuka now can joke about the motorcycle accident that nearly killed him
in May 2010, while riding with his brother, Giants linebacker Mathias Kiwanuka.
Mathias called his mother. "Mom, there's been an accident," he said.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Josh
Ballard may have gotten the better looks (he has modeled) in the constant
rivalry with brother Jake. But the Giants tight end edged out his twin in most
athletic competitions as they were growing up. Ridgewood
Giants fans gear up for big game. Super Bowl fever has struck the village,
and based on the various forms of football paraphernalia spotted throughout town
during the past week, there's no questioning which team has Ridgewood's support. Former
Giants Bill
Parcells - coach of NY Giants, NY Jets, Patriots and Cowboys - should skate
into Pro Football Hall of Fame. Parcells, one of the 15 modern era finalists for
Canton this year, is up for election Saturday. A maximum of five will be selected. Bill
Parcells - He lives in Florida now. He has race horses over at Aqueduct. He
has a summer home up in gentrified, pastoral Saratoga, N.Y. But make no mistake
about it, you can take the boy-grown-older out of New Jersey, but you can't take
New Jersey out of the man. Shaun
O'Hara looked very much like a man with faraway eyes. Who could blame him?
O'Hara is on the outside looking in at the Giants. That's his reality. So is life
without a game he still loves.

3 The
crowd surrounded the riser and table just waiting to see if Osi Umenyiora
actually would attend this time. After all, the Giants' defensive end skipped
the media session Wednesday. But he did show today and described his absence as
an "honest mistake." Giants coach Tom Coughlin was not pleased with
the small distraction his absence created just a few days before Super Bowl XLVI. Tom
Brady was sacked five times and coughed away a fumble the last time these
teams met in a Super Bowl four years ago. The battle against the Patriots offense
will be fought, and possibly won, with a heavy dose of trickery. Not only will
the Giants mix up their sets and vary their points of pressure, they'll try to
cross up Brady's bodyguards with moves known as "games" or "stunts." Jason
Pierre-Paul has been saying all week Tom Brady is human. Like any quarterback,
he can be rattled when pressured. Turns out, the same applies sometimes when a
defender is nowhere near him. The Giants' Pro Bowl defensive end told reporters
today Brady was flinching in the pocket despite none of the Giants' pass rushers
being around him in the teams' Week 9 matchup. Pierre-Paul
said he understands that if the Giants do not get pressure on Brady it could
be a long day Sunday. "I put it on us. I put it on the D-line to go out there
and perform well. We have to perform well and get to Tom Brady quick. We just
have to play all-out and give it all we've got. We can't feel sorry for ourselves." Giants
defensive coordinator Perry Fewell called Antrel Rolle into his office for
a meeting at some point during the regular season - Fewell estimated it to be
in November, though neither could remember exactly when. Fewell said he's seen
a change in Rolle since that meeting, which became another step in Rolle's steady
evolution from disgruntled newcomer to Tom Coughlin enthusiast over the course
of a year. Can
Jacobs come up big for Giants? Because we have all seen what Brandon Jacobs
can be when he's at his best, it is uniquely disappointing when he is not. At
6-foot-4 and 265 pounds, Jacobs is supposed to be a terror with the ball in his
hands -- an unstoppable, line-shredding force that defenders fear to tackle. Too
often over the last couple of seasons, for one reason or another, he has failed
to perform that way consistently. There's
Eli Manning the quarterback and Eli Manning the offensive coordinator. Giants
coach Tom Coughlin pointed to Manning's routine of having a meeting with the receivers
after every Friday practice as one of the reason his quarterback has improved
and has the team a win away from another championship. The improvement of Manning
and the receiving trio of Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz and Manningham has been evident. Giants
receivers click on and off the field. Because of the presence and playmaking
ability of their wide receivers, the Giants have rewritten their playbook during
a record-setting season in which the franchise has moved within one victory -
against the Patriots on Sunday night - of its fourth Vince Lombardi Trophy. The
Giants have 13 players on injured reserve, lost for the season - not including
Sage Rosenfels and Brandon Stokley, who were placed on IR then released, or Chad
Jones, who is on the non-football injury list. The players on injured reserve
will join the team in Indianapolis. The Giants didn't lose just numbers. They
lost talent - and a lot of it. Terrell Thomas, arguably their top cornerback.
Jonathan Goff, the starting middle linebacker. Receiver Domenik Hixon. Starting
left tackle Will Beatty. Giants
general manager Jerry Reese said he has no problem with a confident team heading
into Super Bowl Sunday. So far this week, Chris Canty has talked about a parade
in New York while Jason Pierre-Paul said that New England Patriots quarterback
Tom Brady is not "God." Now,
after constant criticism for making unpopular moves during the offseason,
general manager Jerry Reese is back on the media and fans' good side, one win
away from winning his second Super Bowl in five seasons. "Everybody has different
ways of doing things. We had a good nucleus of guys coming back and we just felt
like we needed to make the best football moves. Reese
had more influence constructing this roster than he did the team that won
Super Bowl XLII. More than 10 rookies contributed to the Giants' title run that
season, but the majority of the team was put together by Reese's predecessor,
Ernie Accorsi. All but nine members of the current 53-man roster were acquired
under Reese's watch. Giants'
long snapper Zak DeOssie, who grew up in the Boston area and whose father,
Steve, played with New England, remembers the first time he met Larry Izzo, the
Patriots former special teams ace and current Giants special teams assistant coach.
These days, it's the 37-year old Izzo, who began his career with Miami before
going to New England and then finishing with the Jets, who is taking care of DeOssie
and the rest of the Giants' special teams players.. Madonna
won't reveal what she'll have in store for the Super Bowl XLVI halftime show,
but she did close her news conference on Thursday by showing off some of her moves.
Her Victor Cruz-inspired moves. Forget about "Vogue," the Queen of Pop actually
did her own version of Cruz's salsa touchdown celebration dance, showing off her
"True Blue" colors. Madonna
clearly understands her role in the big game. On Thursday, she went about
demoralizing the New England Patriots at a press conference before about 1,000
people, most of whom should never be called journalists. First, she said she'd
rather date Eli Manning than Tom Brady, though that decision was perhaps more
a matter of geographical convenience than hunk-iness. Former
Giants Plaxico
Burress once again is picking the Giants to win the Super Bowl. And sounds
very much like he misses his old quarterback and old team. "I think they're
gonna go out and play Giant football," Burress told The Post.

game maker EA Sports did its official Madden NFL 12 Super Bowl simulation,
which has correctly predicted winners in six of the last eight Super Bowls, and
the Giants beat the Patriots, 27-24 on a Lawrence Tynes field goal with time expiring.
Before you woo-hoo too loudly, note that one of the Super Bowls the Madden simulation
failed to get right was Super Bowl XLII. Osi
Umenyiora was a no-show during the Giants' media availability on Wednesday
morning and was fined $20,000 by the NFL. "I misunderstood the schedule,"
Umenyiora explained in a statement released by the team. "It won't happen
again, and I will be at tomorrow's media session and available after the game.
I apologize for any inconvenience my absence this morning may have caused." Is
Domenik Hixon bitter? Not in the least. Is he snakebit? On the contrary, the
Giants' receiver is grateful for everything he has, even if he'll be a mere spectator
Sunday in Indianapolis. Is he perplexed by this absurd twist of fate? That's another
matter. This is a team guy. But let's be frank: If he gets out of Week 2 without
a scratch, he remains Eli Manning's No. 3 target behind Mario Manningham and Hakeem
Nicks -- if not climbing the charts with a bullet. Which also means, one may surmise,
that we may never have become acquainted with the new star of this show, Victor
Cruz. The
Giants were looking good on Tuesday in their Media Day uniforms, gleaming
beneath the harsh camera lights in Indianapolis. And they'll be looking even better
on Sunday, when they don their familiar red, white and blue uniforms with the
once-in-a-lifetime Super Bowl XLVI patch sewn onto the jersey. The Giants' victory
over the San Francisco 49ers at muddy Candlestick Park on Jan. 22 launched Big
Blue into its fifth Super Bowl - and a jubilant squad brought their dirty laundry
with them on the flight home. Barry Barone picked it up at MetLife Stadium the
next day. Kevin
Gilbride said that despite Tom Coughlin's desire for balance, Manning needed
to step up in order to move the football. "If Tom had the perfect world we'd
run it 30, we'd throw it 30 and we'd win 14-12," Gilbride said."Sometimes it doesn't
play out that way and sometimes you have to recognize that what are people doing
defensively? Where's are best chance of moving the ball? And if we have to run
it 50 times, that's fine with me, but if we have to throw it 50, whatever we gotta
do." The
Giants are in great shape with Tom Coughlin and, as it turns out, he is in
great shape with a staff that churns out game plans, develops players and staunchly
believes in his ability to make it all work. "You respect him for the way
he approaches this thing and how hard he works," Mike Pope, the wizened tight
ends coach, said. "He's the model for all of us. Nobody's going to spend
more hours there than he does, nobody's going to look at more film than he does."

Gronkowski's entrance through the tunnel of the stadium didn't quell the chatter,
as he appeared without a walking boot. He said that he got rid of it on Monday
and seemed to make the walk across the field to his podium without any visible
discomfort. Still, like head coach Bill Belichick, he is referring to his status
as "day-to-day." Eli
Manning is relaxed at Super Bowl media circus second time around. There were
34 television cameras and one man with a giant fuzzy hat and a dragon puppet awaiting
Eli Manning, and you knew where this was headed. He was here to discuss the year
of the dragon, feeling the great vibrations and finding the divine beast. Tom
Brady is a tough guy, dimpled face and all, and yet he will walk into Lucas
Oil Stadium on Sunday as the second-toughest quarterback in the house. Eli Manning
has him on that one. Brady has more talent, more touchdowns, more rings, more
charisma, more endorsements, more square feet of living space, more just about
everything. Manning has more nerve in the face of a raging pass rush. Brandon
Jacobs and Osi Umenyiora talked about whether this could be their final game
as Giants. Not a bad way to go out if that's the case. Both have one year remaining
on their contracts, but the Giants have a roster bonus to pay Jacobs and Osi will
be looking for a raise again soon. Jacobs also talked about his good friend Plaxico
Burress and how Plax's heart remains Blue. Jacobs
restructured his contract prior to this season, so the Giants could re-sign
fellow running back Ahmad Bradshaw. Jacobs is owed a $500,000 roster bonus in
March and $4 million in salary for 2012, which could cause the Giants to let him
go. He also has upset fans and management at times with off-field comments and
on-field antics. Giants
linemen Chris Snee and David Diehl sat side-by-side at their podiums at Super
Bowl Media Day. Former teammate, center Shaun O'Hara, was sitting at his New Jersey
home. The Giants cut O'Hara and guard Rich Seubert. Snee said, "Times like
this you remember going through this experience with them four years ago, and
how much it's killing them not to be here. It's tough. "I wish they could
experience this with us, but I know that they are fully behind us and hopefully
we will pull this one out." Perry
Fewell thinks that if the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, St. Louis Rams, Jacksonville
Jaguars, Oakland Raiders, Indianapolis Colts or Miami Dolphins called, he would
not have interviewed in order to stay focused on the defense through this playoff
stretch. Perry Fewell's defense has been one of the stingiest unit's in the NFL
since Week 16. It's
a good bet that at some point, perhaps on Friday, Manning will get some elite
advice on how to handle Bill Belichick's defensive schemes from his big brother.
Peyton told reporters after the Giants won the NFC Championship Game in San Francisco
that the two broke down the Niners' secondary to the exact look San Francisco
gave on a 17-yard touchdown pass by Manning in the fourth quarter. Eli
Manning was the "Mad Bomber" of the NFL this season. Tom Brady and Ryan
Fitzpatrick? Not so much. Manning's ability to make plays downfield has to be
a huge worry for the New England Patriots this week as they prepare to defend
the New York Giants' quarterback in Super Bowl XLVI. Manning threw a greater percentage
of his passes downfield than any QB in the league this year, according to statistics
on ESPN.com. Antrel
Rolle is playing in his second Super Bowl, this one with the Giants, and the
safety plans on winning this time. "We're going to win this thing,"
Rolle said at Media Day today at Lucas Oil Stadium. "We're going to win this
thing for a lot of good reasons." But later asked if he guaranteed a win,
Rolle balked at the suggestion. Giants
safety Deon Grant has been around for 12 years, so when it comes to sizing
up a situation, he pretty much goes with his gut instinct. That's exactly what
happened the last two seasons when Grant, who had been released by Seattle where
he spent his entire time there as a starter, chose the Giants not once, but twice. Minute
by minute, the Giants knew where they had to be yesterday, what time they
had to be there and what to expect as they embarked on their improbable road trip,
leaving home for a date with the Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI and perhaps destiny.
It was a quiet getaway. No, there was no pep rally for the Giants, unlike the
grand sendoff for the Patriots on Sunday, when 25,000 or so fans at Gillette Stadium
were treated to appreciative and bold words from their beloved quarterback Tom
Brady. Once
the loudest man in the room with his own crew of paid cameramen and associates
in tow, wide receiver Chad Ochocinco stands quietly now. Gone was the man who
once sent Pepto-Bismol to opponents in anticipation of the indigestion he'd give
them. Gone was the man who gave up his Christian name, legally changing it to
the Spanish words for "eight" and "five" - the numbers on
the back of his jersey. During
the nearly hour-long session, Ochocinco provided hardly a whiff of his old
look-at-me ways. After 10 years of commanding the spotlight and losing games in
Cincinnati, the social media mogul had to pull off one of his most difficult changes.
Ochocinco had to use the words "I" and "me" much more sparingly
in order to co-exist with Belichick in New England. He had to learn, he says,
throwing in an obscenity, to shut up. Before
the season started, the Super Bowl was the furthest thing from the mind of
Giants fans. And their owner. The Giants watched Kevin Boss sign with the Raiders,
Steve Smith sign with the Eagles, and Plaxico Burress spurn a Giants return to
sign with the Jets. Giants owner John Mara admits to being frustrated as the offseason
unfolded. Ann
Mara, matriarch of the New York Giants, upgraded her Super Bowl XLVI status
from probable to definite Monday when she said the broken shoulder she suffered
in a fall last week won't keep her from the big game. "If I had to crawl to Indianapolis
I'd be there," Mara told ESPNNewYork.com by phone. "I have no intention of staying
home. I'll be ready to go on the plane on Thursday." The
Giants' organization is filled with football-savvy people, all of whom seem
to agree on one thing: they knew the team's wide receivers were talented, knew
they had potential and knew they could be dangerous this season, but never imagined
the receivers would end up with the gaudy statistics they ultimately compiled.
"No," quarterback Eli Manning said. "Nope," General Manager
Jerry Reese said. "Not at all," the offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride
said." Devin
Thomas is a Giants wide receiver and special teams stalwart. He is the man
who pounced on two fumbles a week ago in San Francisco, and who therefore helped
propel the Giants to this Sunday's Super Bowl rematch with the Patriots. Over
nine years and at least a dozen sittings under a needle in a tattoo chair (Thomas
said the tattoo parlor "is a great place for just hanging out too"), the 25-year
old has had bits of his story inked on his body. Tom
Coughlin and Bill Belichick are destined to have one of the most intriguing
and intertwined relationships two coaches have ever had in the NFL. As young assistants,
they joined forces to help the Giants win Super Bowl XXV. In 1995, Coughlin's
expansion Jacksonville Jaguars won four games - including two over the Cleveland
Browns, who were in their final season under Belichick and in Cleveland. Twelve
years later, Coughlin was head coach when the Giants defeated the three-time Super
Bowl-winning Belichick and his undefeated Patriots in Super Bowl XLII. Former
Giants Pepper
Johnson has no confusion on which side he is on. The former Giants linebacker,
who has been the New England Patriots' defensive line coach since 2000, is clearly
aligned with his new organization.
