This is more of a forecast than a prediction.   Bottom line is the Giants will lose.  My only hope it that they break out early and score some points, make it interesting for a while so I can enjoy the commercials.

Now don't get me wrong.  I am a big Manning family fan.  I loved Archie and was thrilled he has two sons making it big.  I really love Peyton's ethic and ability.  I actually would like to see his younger brother make his own mark too.  I think he gets an unfair shake in media now. 

I like a number of other players on the Giants roster too.  They have players I like where as the Jets do nothing for me. 

I don't like either coach as they are simply too intense and abusive towards players.  I like New York teams in general because of the city but don't get carried away with rooting them on because I do have my own favorite teams. 

That leaves me with the Patriots... I'll be happy for them if they make history, they seem to have a truly great team.   I'd like to see them earn it here.   I just don't think the Giants will show up to play.  I mean, they may have heart, but they are just out-gunned.
