You're blaming this on the defense? Sorry. Tom Brady's proved himself just another overpaid, overhyped University of Michigan flop. Belichick can't win unless he cheats. Those two lost the Super Bowl--again.

Good article. Bottom line, I think, is that the Giants won - even though they weren't necessarily the best team on the field. You can't really blame the defense or the offense for the loss. Overall the Pats played a great game - they were the underdogs.
