Yeah, they did. Not only is it the biggest upset in NFL Super Bowl history, but it might also have been the best Super Bowl of all time.
The game was all about the defenses, but it included its own immaculate reception when a nearly sacked Eli Manning threw a lob that David Tyree caught on the top of his helmet. That allowed an improbable drive to continue, ending in a touchdown pass to Plaxico Burress.
That’s what you get for cheating, New England Patriots. You get bad karma. You cheat, you lose!
A Giants win does mean another thing: If the Dallas Cowboys had beaten them, they likely would have won a record sixth Super Bowl. We Dallas fans can be proud that the team that knocked us out is the world champion, as shocking as it is.
Congrats to all Giants fans. Your team showed a ton of spirit at the end of the season and your defense played like champions. Your quarterback has finally matured and it seems as if the Giants might just be a force again in the NFC East.
Give some kudos to Neil at G-Men Headquarters for his team pulling off this major upset. The Giants win 17-14.

No way it was the best of all time … too boring throughout most of the game.
A great game, though, and a big upset. Hate seeing the Giants win, but not as much as I love seeing the Pats lose.
This and the Rams-Titans game were the two best super bowls in my opinion. The last two drives and the special plays on those drives made it the best in my opinion.
It was a great game. Rams/Titans was better but this was good. The signifigance of the game is definitely up there too. I am shocked right now.
Uh, how exactly do you figure that a Giants victory equates to the Cowboys means that you would have won the superbowl if you had beaten them? That makes no sense. You still would have to have beat Green Bay and the Patriots and we’ll never know how either game would have turned out. That’s like saying if the Redskins had beaten the Seahawks we would have won the superbowl because we beat the Cowboys and Giants in the regular season. It’s like when Ian claims that the Eagles were the best team in the NFC East last year. IT MAKES NO SENSE!
Er, delete "equates to the Cowboys" from that last post. Speaking of not making any sense.
You don’t make any sense ever. Now zip it. I made a ton of sense. The team that knocked us out of the playoffs won the Super Bowl. We are a better team than the Giants. The Cowboys would have won the super bowl. Green Bay was not a problem.
Keep telling yourself that if it helps lessen the pain and loss. I’m sure you’re relieved that the Cowboys are now only the SECOND biggest choke-artist of the season. Tell the truth, this Superbowl rationale of yours is some sort of mastubatory fantasy of isn’t it? Maybe if you close your eyes and pretend real hard, it’ll be like you really won the lombardi yourself. Just be careful. You can go blind doing that.
there goes the d.c. dude w/ the gay innuendo again…personal probs??? and yeah, no1 choked biGGer than the pats
Having been a Giants fan since Doug Kotar and Brad Van Pelt days, I have to be honest and say that it was not the greatest game. One of the great games. But no scoring for from the start of the 2Q to the start of the 3Q? That’s an issue.That said, the 4th quarter is probably one of the greatest qaurters in Superbowl history. Should make for an interesting 2008/2009 season.
Redskinguy you sound like a complete fruitcake…..Shut your mouth already….i cant fathom what reasoning you have for coming on this site and talkin about my team chokin, when your team doesnt even get the opportunity to choke b/c you suck. like i have stated in my previous post, you are a poorly run franchise from a personnel aspect, and your owner only cares about getting his fat face on the cover of forbes. why dont you go hang out with those fat cross dressing homos..( the hogs) I dont consider them fans, they are just a bunch of faggots, who like the feel of wearing panties…
How can you say the Redskins haven’t had a chance to choke when we’ve won actual playoff games this decade? Yeah we may be a poorly run franchize, but we’re a poorly run franchize who has won two playoff games in the past 10 years. That’s two more than you, Bukko.
By the way Lance, I notice you seem to call people "faggots" at the drop of a hat. Between that and the fact that you’ve decided to pick a name that sounds like a gay porn star…well I have to let you know: When you’re ready to come out of the closet, your fellow Cowboys fans will be there to support you. Being gay doesn’t make you any less of a man and once you get past this overcompensation and anger, you will become a much better person. Have you told your parents yet? I understand that’s the hardest part. Be brave, little soldier. And learn how to spell.
Haha yeah the “Cowboys would have won” LOL we saw how great they did against the Patriots…
I luvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv the giants the kick anybody’s butt
