'Five Things To Watch,' Super Bowl Edition

PrintTick, tick, tick. The looooooooooong countdown to the 2012 Super Bowl between the New York Giants and New England Patriots is winding down. Two days to go before we find out if the Giants can win the second title of the Tom Coughlin-Eli Manning era, and their four Super Bowl in franchise history.
Here is this week's 'Five Things To Watch.' A Super Bowl edition of some of the things that could determine whether or not the Giants are hoisting the Lombardi Trophy Sunday night. Probably not much in here that has not been discussed during the past two weeks. Then again, is there anything that hasn't been discussed in the past two weeks?
1. Rob Gronkowski's Effectiveness -- We know the injured New England tight end is going to play, high ankle sprain (if that is really what the injury is) and all. How much of a factor he can be is a huge storyline. He caught 90 passes, 17 for touchdowns, in the regular season. In the Giants' 24-20 regular-season victory Gronkowski had eight receptions and a touchdown.
If he is close to being himself the Giants will need to devote two defenders to covering him most of the time. If he isn't, allowing the Giants cover him with one guy, that is a huge help to the Giants defense and a huge disadvantage to a Patriots offense that needs big plays from Gronkowski and fellow tight end Aaron Hernandez.
2. Which Quarterback Is Under The Most Duress? -- The Giants have talked all week about putting pressure on Tom Brady, and about how they might already be in the head of the New England quarterback (shush, JPP!). Drawing less attention has been New England's need to put pressure on Eli Manning, and the poor pass protection Manning received in the NFC Championship Game victory over the San Francisco 49ers. The Giants have too many receiving weapons for New England to cover consistently so, like the Giants, the Patriots defensive game plan is likely to revolve around getting pressure.
3. Which Team Runs The Ball Better? -- All the talk is about Brady, Manning and the aerial assault everyone expects to see on Sunday. Flying under the radar is any discussion of the running games of both teams. Neither team is a 'ground-and-pound' attack, but both will try to run it enough that the opposing defense will need to respect the ground game and not simply tee off with the pass rush on every play. The Giants, in particular, would love a handful of big plays from Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs.
4. Can The Giants Deal With Vince Wilfork? -- We discussed this earlier, but the key factor for the Giants of offense will be controlling the massive Wilfork. Center David Baas can't do it alone, and I don't think Tom Coughlin and Kevin Gilbride are foolish enough to ask him to. Realistically, Wilfork is the one player in the New England front seven who can be considered a difference-maker. Control him, the Giants should have opportunities for big plays.
5. The Impact Of Ahmad Bradshaw And Hakeem Nicks -- These two huge offensive weapons for the Giants did not play the first time the teams met. Brandon Jacobs did run for 72 yards on 18 carries in that game, but having Bradshaw is critical for the Giants. Throughout the playoffs we have seen the difficulty teams face in dealing with Nicks and Victor Cruz -- you just can't take both away from Manning as potential targets. The Giants haven't hidden the fact that they don't think a whole lot of New England's secondary, so let's see if the Patriots can handle the Giants with their full complement of weapons available.

DEWEY BEATS TRUMAN.
Don’t count your chickens before they hatch. The Giants actually have to win the game first.
It will not be true if i said Pats win. Since you mentioned chicken, here is a patriot chicken for you
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
And what was Brady doing when he talked about victory parade at home before leaving for Indy.
This is not the 2007 team.

"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
The running game
could indeed be the x-factor, much like when Indy ran themselves to a win vs. Chicago. Running the ball right at Wilfork is as foolish as try to block him 1v1 with our center. Jacobs has shown himself to be less effective when picking his way to the edge of the line waiting for an opening. Bradshaw could indeed make something of nothing by breaking to the outside, but NE has some pretty quick LBs capable of chasing down the play from behind. What does all of this mean? I don’t know, I’m just a football fan.
I fully expect the running game to produce more than it has most of the season.
I also fully expect Jacobs to be a big reason why, assuming he gets the chances, this is exactly the game he tends to show up big in.
Underrated strategies
I believe the two things the Patriots will try to do is pressure Eli and run the ball.

I think your spot on with this...They know run defense has been a weakness for us..
So they will try to establish a running attack..It’s the only way to protect Brady…If we whack him a few times and pressur him..his game will be in a toilet swirl…We need a strong rush up the gut..he likes to step up in the pocket..We can’t let that happen…
"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
i wouldnt call the giants run defense a weakness...
Since boley came back, and we brought chase back from the couch, the run d has been pretty solid. The only recent blip on the radar was when San Fran had 150 yards, but how many of those were alex smith squeeking out of the pocket.

the Giants run a D has been much improved the second half of the season. I don’t consider QB scrambling yards as rushing yards.
Jacobs to Eli: You're a beast, man. I can't say that enough!

I agree with both of you...I just don't want a letdown to happen...
But I’m sure Bill B…knows we have play the run much better…
"When I was a boy and I had no sense..I got my pecker caught in an electric fence..Well it curled my hair, tickled my balls and made me shit in my overalls..."
yeap.
they will no doubt try to run the ball early. The Giants must know this and stop that. IF we allow NE to run the ball down our throats and put up points, then Brady will go for the jugular with the aerial attack. Have to stop the run early.
I’m not worried about them rushing Eli. Maybe it might get to him early on, but not even the 49ers could stop him and I really, really don’t think the Pats defense improve tho it may be is even close to that level.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
Look for Brady
to throw the deep pass down the sidelines to bring the Giants safties away from helping with the short middle coverage. Brady will also play a fast paced offense, NO HUDDLE, to keep the Giants defense from changing personel. Hernandez will probably have the big day Sunday. This game will be won by a FB. The QB that makes the biggest mistakes will lose the game for their team. Running the ball will be an after thought. This game will be won through the air. The Pats will show some new wrinkles on offense. Hernandez will probably line up in the backfield to keep the Giants defense guessing. Should be a great game.

Not sure the revenge factor was discussed
I think Giants are better team and should win, but what scares me most is that little extra emotion and adrenaline the Pats might have as the game is played b/c of their determination to avenge the Supe 42 loss to the Giants. Football is such an emotional game and the Pats might have that little extra motivation to drive them. Yes, the Giants will play hard and put it all on the line, but so will the Pats with that little extra push b/c of their burning desire for revenge.
Is this a valid concern? What do you say Bobbi and Co.?
DavebrownNOT
If the Pats need any additional motivation
They’re in trouble.
A team should be 100% motivated to go out and win the Superbowl. If they need “revenge” to get there, they’re in trouble, and if they concentrate on revenge, that could be a distraction.
Not so sure
What abouit bulletin board material and why teams feed off it? Revenge or tests of manhood are just the difference sometimes in teams that give that little extra to do what it takes to win, especially in physical 1 on 1’s.
DavebrownNOT
bulletin board material
Is media BS. It’s a different game than 20 or 30 years ago. The media coverage is saturated With ESPN and NFL Network. The mind set of the players is different.

I agree
one could say that the Giants are motivated to prove SB 42 was not a fluke or luck. But at the end of the day, its about the 2011 Giants vs the 2011 Patriots.

Yes...I also believe that the 2011 Giants are a better team than the 2007 Giants.
They’ve had like 3 years of hearing how they don’t measure up to the Strahan led squad that won it all.

They are better.
Maybe not THAT much better but this is a better team.
I also think that this Patriots team is not as good as the 2007 version.
2011 Giants
Is considerably more talented than the 2007 Giants. It’s not even close.

See my sig that i have had for a while now.
This is not the 2007 team.
2011 NYG will have their own legacy.
I also agree
If your so hell bent on the revenge factor, your more apt to lose focus of the bigger picture. Revenge is a strong draining emotion. Besides, there are only a handful of players that remain from the 2007 team and the only thing you can do is preach revenge.
Revenge or emotion will not be a factor in the 4th Quarter. Just the will to win.
Whoever mans up in the 4th will win this game. I like our chances. we are battle tested.
Why is Tom Quinn still here? I loves me some Coach Clawfin.
Battle Tested?
Dont kid yourself. Pats are also battle tested. Key to game will be if our OLine can keep Wilfork and Anderson off Eli.
DavebrownNOT
The Pats had a cupcake s
Schedule his season. We had the 3rd toughest in the league. Not to mention the Playoff run we had to win against the best teams in the NFC including the 15 n 1 Pack and 13n1 Niners in their houses. We know how to win in the 4th
Why is Tom Quinn still here? I loves me some Coach Clawfin.
All true...
But let’s remember that the Packers were 15-1 and we beat them. Any given Sunday and all that jazz…

revenge matters as much as any off the field talk
if the Patriots win, they might get asked the question “how does revenge feel” and answer “sweet”, but on the field no one’s thinking about that. A lot of the players on that 2007 team aren’t even there anymore anyway.
Last night, a comedian died in New York. Somebody knows why. Somebody knows
There's 6 returning NE players from the 07 team
How can the rest of the team (many college players at the time) be thinking about revenge?
Means as much as the “let’s do it for Mrs. Kraft” sentiment.
No disrespect, but I don’t think it shows up in play.
That's right...in fact I believe we have more players from 2008 than they do...

My dream last night had the Giants winning the game 26-24...
I wouldn’t read too much into that though because in the same dream I was clawed by a puma all the way down my right arm, about an inch deep, but it didn’t bleed at all. The puma didn’t attack me…he was a pet puma that just thought I wanted to play with him.
Also, after being mauled by the puma, my entire home was flooded and starting to float away. I was trying to stop the flooding and get everyone out of the house. Gronkowski’s girlfriend was helping me while he was trying to buy tickets to an underground Super Bowl rave on the computer upstairs. He couldn’t find any online and was rather disappointed by the whole situation.
I didn’t get to watch a snap of the game because I was trying to find the car that some people built for me so I could escape the sinkhole opening up in my back yard. I cried when Antrel Rolle called me immediately following the games final second to tell me they won.

He should stay in the hoodie. You can tell he is not used to wearing a suit, or a shirt. I think the fashionistas should do an article on this.
they've been talking about it
apparently he’s got a new girlfriend that’s a fashion something or other and she’s apparently responsible for the new getups. I say, no hoodie = no mojo, they’re F’d.

It is better to be silent and be thought a fool, then to open your mouth and remove all doubt.
not all that cheep
The NFL has become popular because it is accessible. MLB can be hard to find on normal TV. THere is a reason the braves and cubs were so popular around the country. Their games were the only ones many people got to see. The NFL has long been on broadcast TV, and it is sad to see them move away from that.
Unfortunately, it can either force people to stop watching the games, or move to somewhat illegal methods to watch the games. Neither way makes the NFL more money.
Yeah it isn't cheap...but I have no choice...
I have to buy the NFL Ticket every year….and the funny thing is most of the Giants games were aired on CBS and NBC and ESPN…but I still buy it..just in case…

I almost never watch Thurs games though, despite getting nfl network. Football = Sunday/Monday
All good points above
The great positive is the addition of Bradshaw and Nicks this time.
I worry a bit with Baas who seems to be handled easily in the middle.
K Mac scares me on the line he is playing awful
Why is Tom Quinn still here? I loves me some Coach Clawfin.
he's playing awful
but Aldon Smith and Clay Matthews while they still had an impact, didn’t do enough for their teams to stop Eli. The Patriots don’t have a pass rusher remotely close to either of those two.

Anyone remember the movie The Program?
There is a scene where the coach is going over game film with their star LB. The dialogue goes something like this, been a while so it is not exact:
Coach: If they come out in this formation what do you do?
LB: Hit the TE so hard his girlfriend dies
Coach: And this one…
LB: Kill everyone
I am just imagining the same scene, only TC and JPP.
