Patriots did beat themselves, they didn't make the plays and the Giants defense I believe shocked them too. I'm not taking ANYTHING away from the Giants they won the game, played great defense, and Eli made a clutch throw to lead his team to victory.
I definitely wish things turned out differently, but they didn't and New York Giants are the champions. No excuses at all. A great team overcomes any kind of pressure and New England wasn't the best team at all last night, they flat out got beat and they have a long time to think about it now.
But you are! That's the entire basis of your posts on this whole thing is that they didn't beat the Patriots, the Patriots beat themselves. You said just that at the beginning of that post. That completely takes away from what NY accomplished last night. Completely.
My cousin from Boston, a diehard Patriots fan, called me last night after the game and said "We got our asses kicked, plain and simple". No "Well, Patriots just folded under pressure of trying to have a perfect season." or any of this other crap that serves as an excuse or marginalizes the other team's victory. Just an acknowledgment that they got beat. Period. That's class.
