Put this into context, the Giants were the 5th seed of the NFC. The 5TH SEED. New England was 18-0 (No Sh!t). Many people thought their season was going to end in Tampa, No, Dallas, No, Green Bay?, HELL NO! Main reason were because of ELI(TE) MANNING (yes he's elite deal with it) and Michael Strahan. The Giants were not afraid of the Pats as some of the other teams they faced in the postseason. Fast Forward to 2:42 in the 4th quarter. The Giants are down 4 points after a defensive choke. Before the Giants come on field, Michael Strahan says "One touchdown and we are world champions, believe it and it will happen!" Everyone in the crowd thought that it would end. The Giants fans looked away in fear as Eli got "Sacked" but he didn't, he threw the ball to David Tyree in midfield. Eli's Hail Mary was answered. Later, Plaxico catches the game winner. Just a perfect bookend ending to a great season by the Giants. #ELIte
I give more credit to the Giants Defense for shutting down one of the most prolific offenses featuring one of the best QB WR tandems of all time than Eli putting up 17 points on a hail mary throw to Tyree's helmet
and what bout eli in 2011? most 4th qtr tds EVER. Almost everyy win was come from behind cuz they had no D or run game most of the yyr. he carried them. 67 yards from 5,000. Put up 38 on the 15-1 Packers. Ppl can call that one play a fluke, but u cant call EIGHT playoff wins resulting in 2 sbs a fluke. U kno how hard it is to win just one? brees, rodgers, just 1. Marino, 0. The hate he gets is uncalled for. His stats r identical to some top tier qbs. Its the int thats the only difference. It has a lot to do with their O under Gillbribe. Its complicated n hasnt been used in like 2o yrs. its built for a gunslinger. Which Eli is, takes chances with those ice in his veins. Id take those int knowing my qb will risk it all to win n not get scared n check down. As u can see under mcadoo who runs a normal nfl O. The int r down. I hope theyy open it up a bit more if they can get some dmn guys who can friggin block.
+Truebells24 - Without Eli helping to put up points on the board, the defensive efforts would have been wasted. As for the other guy whining about the holding not being called, I recall a certain face mask pulled on Hixon that wasn't called earlier in the game. I wonder how the drive could have turn out had the Giants gotten the call that could have given them a better field position. Hmmm...
this is such an accurate statement Lmao omg, its true, cuz the gmen last drive was so ugly, until the last two plays, 3rd down to smith, next play TD to plax. Unbelievabley calm throws by Eli given the pressure. the plax throw gets overlooked cuz of how open he was but it was still a timing throw to the sideline end zone. And go watch the nfl films sideline cam, he spun that rock perfectly. A truly majestic throw to win the game.
You just can not ask for a better upset and a better football game! Good reason to be a giants fan. Especially when they repeated this 4 years later :)
@@jaredmello Thanks for letting us know about something we already knew. Hope you got an ego boost from it even though you contributed nothing to those wins.
Thanks for uploading this. This is my favorite Super Bowl game. As a Peyton Manning fan having him win the Super Bowl the year before then little brother comes in the next year and beats the 'perfect' Patriots in an awesome game it just doesn't get any better than this. The Manning brothers are the only QB brothers in NFL history to win back to back Super Bowls.
Like Micheal Strahan once said, “That right there let me know we were going to win this game. Because for something so magical to happen in a season that’s been so magical...you could not lose.”
Although I no longer live in NYS anymore, I still like to watch this from time to time. And it makes me wanna cry every damn time. NYG super bowl champion 2017!!
Ironically the Patriots turned into the 2001 Rams team they beat years earlier, a one dimensional pass happy offense that was easy to predict and tee off on.
Joel Entrup 123 the only thing is, is that the Rams losing to the pats devastated that franchise, while the pats were able to continue their dynasty even after a loss as bad as this one
I was a freshman in high school. This game was so stressful as a giants fan (and for Pats too obviously) because it's like ok we're not getting blown out, cuz honestly the week 17 game felt kind of fluky how it was a shootout. And I never thought a Brady/Belichick team could be outplayed 2 games in one season by the same team. But we're not really winning or losing at any point. Cuz the defense was playing out of their mind and the offense put some decent drives together but couldn't get anything out of them. Then the 4th quarter came alive. I could honestly have lived the rest of my life happy with just this win. I never talk shit about this win to Pats fans and most of my friends are gracious about it. But then to get that SB46 "the rematch" was like the validation i never even knew i wanted, cuz i never even thought it could happen. And it turned the 42 win into a statement of it's own, it wasn't a fluke, it wasn't luck. I admit the Giants got multiple good breaks in both 42 and 46 but at the end of the day you beat the best qb in history and playoff history twice. so yeah it came down to a couple plays here or there could have changed both games but the fact we were able to say we could play with those guys and that qb is everything. I'll cherish these memories forever.
My favorite saying for this Super Bowl was The Patriots were knocking on perfection's door and Perfection sicked their 3 pitbulls by the name of Micheal Justin and Osi after them.
This was definitely the best 4th quarter of any Super Bowl, however when there is no scoring for 2 straight quarters it's tough to call it the best Super Bowl.
As a life long NY Giants fan, I have much love for LT, Simms, Carson, Banks and ALL off those players from the eighties and nineties. And the 1986 Giants cannot be touched. But THIS Giants team accomplished something very special when they stopped the Patriots from being perfect. That is one of the most historical things in football, and they went in there and got the job done. And that makes them incredibly special and they hold a section all their own in all New Yorker's hearts. And as a New York sports team, there is nothing more glorious you can achieve than stomping out New England/Boston.
Asante Samuel catches those INT’s, different game. These two losses aren’t as bad as the Eagles loss. The giants teams just beat them. But Bill kept Butler on the bench for no reason against the Eagles while the d got torched? That I can’t accept.
@@jaredmello They got lucky on the one he did catch. Ball was right in Smith's hands, first down and at minimum a FG. Bounced off his hands and right into Samuel's hands. Different game my ass. Giants held Pats to 14 points. Brady laughed when Plax predicted a 23-17 final score. "He thinks we're only going to score 17???? Ha, ha, ha!" Giants got the last laugh!
I’m a Miami Dolphins fan but on this day I have great respect for the Giants for defeating those dang Patriots what an ending and what a play. I don’t think I ever have seen a QB fight out of a sack. As a former WR I made a lot of circus catches and seen many. Tyree made the catch of catches. Also loved the Giants celebration
The Giants D was AMAZING in this game! Eli 3-1 Vs. Brady. I've seen all 4 of The Giants's Super Bowl Championships. This one is, by far, my favorite! Let's get another one this year! LET'S GO GIANTS!!!
this was my first nfl game i went to and i still lov that this was my first game ever and i was ten years old and barely knew anything about football but still it was awesome being there
This Super Bowl never gets old. To see Brady’s hard work go down the tube on the most important game of the season after being undefeated the whole time is just priceless. Not a fan of the Giants but that night it was all them or just another feather 🪶 in the cap of then young Tom Brady. Thankfully that didn’t happen. And it is so satisfying to watch over and over again.
This was an exercise in the power of belief, the Giants truly believed they could beat the Patriots, they were never intimidated by the Patriots and lo and behold hahaha. Best story I've ever heard in a Super Bowl.
Richard Thomas you are correct , I was at that game. What a superbowl . people often forget that Brady led the offense down the field for a touchdown taking the lead with hardly anything left on the clock in the 4th. It took a miracle play . How in the world Eli even gets free to throw that ball is a story all in its own right , but then there's the catch by Tyree and it just blows my mind . the guy caught the ball by pinning it with one hand to his helmet , it's God damn ridiculous . This one hurt me as a Pats fan , and began this trend of us getting hurt bad late in the 4th by these ridiculous catches opponents would start making in the Super Bowl.
I don't mean this as a slap at all. I rooted for the Patriots against the Rams, but not the Panthers. I rooted for the Falcons last year. But, with ever Super Bowl they win, I keep saying the same thing: Tom Brady is undefeated in Super Bowls - Unless he plays Eli Manning.
I remember this game as it were yesterday. I was in Atlantic City at the Taj (now closed), and when Burress scored that TD, the rooms around me on my floor went nuts and when they won, everyone was celebrating.
Both SB Championships won by NY Giants over NE Patriots was on toughness,will and sheer determination.Tom Coughlin was great coach getting teams ready to play.Ben Mcadoo needs to win SB Championships to earn history as great coach.He will get opprotunity to get NY Giants back to glory
Giants fan here. Definitely the greatest win in team history! As for the '72 Dolphins ... please. They went 17-0 while the Pats were 18-0 going into the Super Bowl. They eclipsed Miami. I love my team and give them all the credit in the world for this win but this Pats team was the best in history, IMHO. Brady was limping around for the 2 weeks prior to the game (and injuries are part of the game so it's not excuse) so that certainly opened the door for the G-Men to have a great defense performance. 18 and 1 Giant loss!
+FAITHandLOGIC Just a quibble - Miami _couldn't_ go 18-0 as their season was two games shorter, so it's not really a valid comparison. Both teams lost in the playoffs the previous season, and Miami won its first game in '73 before losing the second, so you could argue that the overall winning streaks were equivalent. Where the Pats really eclipsed Miami was the level of dominance during the winning streak. The Pats winning streak had an 18.6 pt average victory with ten 21+ point blowouts and only four games with a 7-pt or less margin, versus Miami's 13.3 pts average, four blowouts, and six one-score games. (IMO, they also eclipsed Miami in overall arrogance by an even wider margin, which is why I was _very_ happy to see the Giants take them down)
I'm pretty sure the best team to ever play the game was the 1985 Chicago Bears they went 18-1 and their loss was to the Dolphins and mike ditka broke his hand from punching a locker so hard while screaming at the defense at giving up 31 points in the first half and went off to win 46-10 in the super bowl
The part with Michael Strahan proclaiming the final score is just bone chilling awesome. A testament in believing in yourself and things happen when you truly have the faith. I just loved this game. The Giants were not intimidated by them at all. And actually the Giants were the only team to match up well with them. They lost a close one to New England in the regular season and I remember saying if they get another stab at them, it's going to be a good one. And well....lol
It was the greatest play in Super Bowl history. It is still the greatest play in Super Bowl history. If you meet an alien from another planet and he wants to know what the NFL is about, show him this game.
When they beat Dallas I knew. I had this feeling they were going to win it all. I said before the game, they're going to shock the world. Everyone I knew said I crazy.
I love this soundtrack of the greatest NY Giant's win ever. There's the ever iconic and pioneering Steve Sabol NFL Films sound.My respect goes out first to the immortal Dick Lynch, a Great Giant Forever. Love to his whole Family. Then, my two favorite guys covering the games. Bob Pappa, who has all of my adoration, attention and respect, and the legendary, 2 time Super Bowl Winner, and as far as Giant's fans go, one of the All Time Best Giant's Ever , #58, Carl Banks. Living in NJ all of my 4 out of 5 SB wins , and listening to old fashioned FM radio, it will never be better than these guy's shows. Carl and Bob. Thanks again! The last 2:42 of this game is the best ever for this NYG Fan.
What pisses me off as a Patriots fan is that after the catch by Tyree, the Giants had to convert a 3rd & 10 and then the idiotic call by the Defensive coordinator to call an all out blitz and leave 5'9 Ellis Hobbs to single cover 6'5 Plaxico Burress!
No that's just because Patriots is a hated team by a lot of fans.... They've been caught cheating previously for many things not just deflating balls but recording games and recording team hand motions for play calls. Look up all there discrepancies they have had in the passed. They should have many super bowls took away.
@@tommyboaz6777 No they shouldnt, just so you know, every NFL team back then did that, they just got caught, so you can call every team cheaters, you still have to make plays to win a game, ala catch the ball, play defense, MAKE PLAYS! Also the whole deflategate thing was a bunch of garbage, because they won 2 super bowls after that, it had 0 effect on the games, I know there are alot of haters out there because they always win, but give credit to what they have accomplished, they aren't cheaters.
What's missing from this is on the play BEFORE David Tyree's helmet made a catch, Asante Samuel dropped what would have been a 19-0 sealing interception. One of those hidden plays that no one notices, but is decisive.
First of all the ball was high, off his fingertips. Would have taken a phenomenal catch. Second, if he did hang on to it there's better than a fair chance he would have wound up out of bounds. Watch the play again. Pats fans always talk about that as if that was the only play that didn't go their way. How about Eli missing a wide open Plax with the score 10-7 Giants? Would have resulted in a first down, taken time off the clock and maybe another Giants TD. If "ifs" and "buts" were candy and nuts every single day would be Xmas!
I am looking for this video for a lot of yeras now. It was on the NFL site as an NFL film, it had a Game of the Week introduction. I think this is not the exact video but the music and everything seems to be extremely close to it. I do not watch american football, but this video just made that entire thing extremely epic and it tells an amazing story.
The Broncos in this Super Bowl against the Panthers, can be what the Giants were against the Patriots. The Giants had the #1 Defense in football in 2007. The Broncos have the #1 Defense this year. Peyton Manning isn't what he was, but I believe Denver has the ability to keep the Panthers in striking distance. Ever since his return Denver hasn't turned the ball over, and they have been balanced on both sides of the football. If they're not careful with the football, Denver IMO, will win Super Bowl 50.
bxty 95 My mistake. They had the #1 Defense in the Playoffs in 2007. They knocked off every top team in the Postseason. Tampa Bay, won their division, the Giants win the Wildcard Game in Tampa. They go to Big D, and knock of the 13-3 Cowboys. The following week, they go to Blizzard Green Bay, and retired Brett Farve, "The First Time." Lol. Then they do the impossible by stopping the 18-0 Patriots. This Denver team reminds me of the 2007 Giants. I could be wrong. Carolina could smash Denver, but if their pass rush does to Carolina, what they have been doing all year, this will be a close, defensive, and competitive game similar to Super Bowl 42.
Fucking Giants had the 17th ranked defense in 2007, idiot. They were not even close to being a dominant defense.They were mediocre that Season. Gave up 42 to the Vikes that year, 45 to the cowboys,, and 38 to the Pats just a month earlier.The Pats just choked this game and put up a dud performance offensively.
Arch Hades True, but they had the #1 Defense in the Playoffs, which was the main reason they beat New England along with the other top seeded teams in their conference. You want to start name calling "cyber thug" You're probably a bitter Patriots Fan. I always come across a clown like you that wants to match wits. Since you know so much, who was the last player to win 3 straight Super Bowls? Smart ass! Don't look it up. Shoot it from the hip.
KORY ANDREL SCOTT I'm not a Pats fan i live in Tennessee. Lol. Pretty sure New England's Defense played just as well statistically as the Giants D in the 07 playoffs. But anyway Giants defense did play significantly better in the playoffs than they did in the regular season. But they were hardly 85 Bears esque or something.
* Seattle decided to pass the ball instead of running it, which resulted in an interception by the Patriots. * Atlanta ran out of gas. * Los Angeles showed too much respect for the Patriots. The only team which played an outstanding role against the Patriots in the last Super Bowls were the Eagles.
Its not like they were playing the cleveland browns. Even the patriots knew the game wasn't a gimmie. Belichick remarked that he knew it was going to be tough since they only won by 3 points the previous time they played.
Funny you should mention that since the Browns were actually 10-6 on the season and lost the divisional tie breaker due to a Steelers sweep. Actually, the worst team in the NFL by far that year were the Miami Dolphins, who were one of the rare few teams to have posted a dreaded 1-15 record.
It's pure and simple without the Manning brothers especially Eli in this game, Tom Brady has his perfect record at 19-0 instead of 18-1. Brady most likely has 9 or 10 Super Bowls especially Peyton's first Super Bowl win one since Bill Belichick would have a game plan against Rex Grossman and the Bears. If the Patriots don't lose against the Colts in 2006, they most likely beat the Bears. It would have been interesting to see how the Pats would have done against the Seahawks the first time, but really Tom Brady would have had at least 9 or 10 Super Bowls if Peyton and Eli weren't there playing against them. Eli came through when he had to and that catch by Tyree helped a hell of a lot. Eli won his two Super Bowl against Brady and that's all the stat matters 2-0 in Super Bowls against Brady.
Patriots were caught cheating after most of their Super Bowl seasons the giants beat them twice when they were cheating that is what makes this Super Bowl the best in history!!!! And Eli manning making that throw and avoiding the sack then the catch!!!! Best game ever by far!!!!
Derrick Lake they were accused twice of breaking the rules after week 1 2007 and after beating the colts in early 2015. They never got caught cheating after a SB, but nice try idiot
@@BillyBob-ti2fz Correction: they were CAUGHT cheating in week 1 of 2007 at Giants Stadium during a game against the Jets because then Jets coach Eric Mangini tipped off the NFL that the Pats were recording opponents' hand signals. The men recording the Jets were caught during the game. Mangini knew this because he actually was involved in doing it for Belichick when he worked for the Patriots. The Patriots were later accused of deflating footballs for a playoff game against the Ravens, but that's nearly impossible to prove after the game was over.
That play with Manning and Tyree something of legend. How Eli escaped the rush part 1 how Tyree caught the ball with one hand. I was once a Wide Receiver I made circus catches I’ve seen circus catches that catch Tyree made circus catch of circus catches
+1990Thunderbolt - This is weird, even if the older Boston sports fans were more for the Giants due to the Patriots being a newer team that came in with the AFL in the 1960s.
Yeah it depends on which part of the state, especially the southern part. In a related note, the Giants offensive line can block better in the video than what went on tonight.
Bradshaw, Jacobs, Toomer, Burress, Tyree, Pierce, Alford, webster, Manning (at that time). None of them are super stars. However, working together as as team, made them beat the best team in NFL history.
ironic how belichick won 2 superbowls as giants defensive coordinator
Tom Coughlin was in there too
And his first ever Head Coach victory in the playoffs was against the Patriots.
eli is the only 2x super bowl winner whos not respected, i love you eli thank you
ironically beating the best qb ever...

Professor X true!!!! Giants are the bomb/best

If they were a damn good defense how were they #4 seed
NYG is looking good this year so far.. don't jinx it
Brady is 3-3 vs the Giants.
RIP SEAU
15:14 ..
“17-14 ! That’s the final score....believe it and it will happen “
Epic!!!!
this was my first nfl game i went to and i still lov that this was my first game ever and i was ten years old and barely knew anything about football but still it was awesome being there
True team versus an assembly of stars and that's why this will go down as the greatest Super Bowl EVER!!!
This Super Bowl never gets old. To see Brady’s hard work go down the tube on the most important game of the season after being undefeated the whole time is just priceless. Not a fan of the Giants but that night it was all them or just another feather 🪶 in the cap of then young Tom Brady. Thankfully that didn’t happen. And it is so satisfying to watch over and over again.
This was an exercise in the power of belief, the Giants truly believed they could beat the Patriots, they were never intimidated by the Patriots and lo and behold hahaha. Best story I've ever heard in a Super Bowl.
Amen my friend.
Do not underestimate the season finale when these teams played each other,the Giants hung tough but lost.They fixed the errors
I remind people that the Giants led in that regular season game at the end of the 1st, 2nd and 3rd quarters. This wasn't a fluke by any means.
Richard Thomas you are correct , I was at that game. What a superbowl . people often forget that Brady led the offense down the field for a touchdown taking the lead with hardly anything left on the clock in the 4th. It took a miracle play . How in the world Eli even gets free to throw that ball is a story all in its own right , but then there's the catch by Tyree and it just blows my mind . the guy caught the ball by pinning it with one hand to his helmet , it's God damn ridiculous . This one hurt me as a Pats fan , and began this trend of us getting hurt bad late in the 4th by these ridiculous catches opponents would start making in the Super Bowl.
I don't mean this as a slap at all. I rooted for the Patriots against the Rams, but not the Panthers. I rooted for the Falcons last year. But, with ever Super Bowl they win, I keep saying the same thing: Tom Brady is undefeated in Super Bowls - Unless he plays Eli Manning.
The Giants really had nothing to lose think about if they lost well everyone expected it anyways.
Greatest upset in sports history. Greatest SB of all time
Yugo Boss The Cavs comeback from 1-3
Caleb Webster the Giants were a much bigger underdog against the greatest team in NFL history the 2007 Patriots then the Cavs
I remember this game as it were yesterday. I was in Atlantic City at the Taj (now closed), and when Burress scored that TD, the rooms around me on my floor went nuts and when they won, everyone was celebrating.
Super Bowl 5 is the best! the cleanest and fairest game. The MVP honors went to a player of the vanquished team!
Both SB Championships won by NY Giants over NE Patriots was on toughness,will and sheer determination.Tom Coughlin was great coach getting teams ready to play.Ben Mcadoo needs to win SB Championships to earn history as great coach.He will get opprotunity to get NY Giants back to glory
Giants fan here. Definitely the greatest win in team history!
As for the '72 Dolphins ... please. They went 17-0 while the Pats were 18-0 going into the Super Bowl. They eclipsed Miami.
I love my team and give them all the credit in the world for this win but this Pats team was the best in history, IMHO. Brady was limping around for the 2 weeks prior to the game (and injuries are part of the game so it's not excuse) so that certainly opened the door for the G-Men to have a great defense performance.
18 and 1 Giant loss!
Thank you for beating the cheaters that year from a colts fan😏
+jake miller you're welcome but I had nothing to do with it :)
+FAITHandLOGIC Just a quibble - Miami _couldn't_ go 18-0 as their season was two games shorter, so it's not really a valid comparison. Both teams lost in the playoffs the previous season, and Miami won its first game in '73 before losing the second, so you could argue that the overall winning streaks were equivalent.
Where the Pats really eclipsed Miami was the level of dominance during the winning streak. The Pats winning streak had an 18.6 pt average victory with ten 21+ point blowouts and only four games with a 7-pt or less margin, versus Miami's 13.3 pts average, four blowouts, and six one-score games.
(IMO, they also eclipsed Miami in overall arrogance by an even wider margin, which is why I was _very_ happy to see the Giants take them down)
I'm pretty sure the best team to ever play the game was the 1985 Chicago Bears they went 18-1 and their loss was to the Dolphins and mike ditka broke his hand from punching a locker so hard while screaming at the defense at giving up 31 points in the first half and went off to win 46-10 in the super bowl
+Albus Luck the Patriots and Brady must of had you crying on many lonely nights! Only explanation for your whine!
i dont watch football but, that pass gives me fucking chills man shit is crazy
The part with Michael Strahan proclaiming the final score is just bone chilling awesome. A testament in believing in yourself and things happen when you truly have the faith. I just loved this game. The Giants were not intimidated by them at all. And actually the Giants were the only team to match up well with them. They lost a close one to New England in the regular season and I remember saying if they get another stab at them, it's going to be a good one. And well....lol
It was the greatest play in Super Bowl history. It is still the greatest play in Super Bowl history. If you meet an alien from another planet and he wants to know what the NFL is about, show him this game.
When they beat Dallas I knew. I had this feeling they were going to win it all. I said before the game, they're going to shock the world. Everyone I knew said I crazy.
The greatest catch ever!!!
my favorite super bowl
great story of overcoming overwhelming odds and never giving up
I love this soundtrack of the greatest NY Giant's win ever. There's the ever iconic and pioneering Steve Sabol NFL Films sound.My respect goes out first to the immortal Dick Lynch, a Great Giant Forever. Love to his whole Family. Then, my two favorite guys covering the games. Bob Pappa, who has all of my adoration, attention and respect, and the legendary, 2 time Super Bowl Winner, and as far as Giant's fans go, one of the All Time Best Giant's Ever , #58, Carl Banks. Living in NJ all of my 4 out of 5 SB wins , and listening to old fashioned FM radio, it will never be better than these guy's shows. Carl and Bob. Thanks again! The last 2:42 of this game is the best ever for this NYG Fan.
What pisses me off as a Patriots fan is that after the catch by Tyree, the Giants had to convert a 3rd & 10 and then the idiotic call by the Defensive coordinator to call an all out blitz and leave 5'9 Ellis Hobbs to single cover 6'5 Plaxico Burress!
Mike Youngblood Ha ha 18-1 Giants win
Asante dropping picks didn’t help them at all
They had
5 chances
Never.Gets.Old
The only time I like the Giants is when they play New England
That's because you're lame as hell!
No that's just because Patriots is a hated team by a lot of fans.... They've been caught cheating previously for many things not just deflating balls but recording games and recording team hand motions for play calls. Look up all there discrepancies they have had in the passed. They should have many super bowls took away.
@@tommyboaz6777 No they shouldnt, just so you know, every NFL team back then did that, they just got caught, so you can call every team cheaters, you still have to make plays to win a game, ala catch the ball, play defense, MAKE PLAYS! Also the whole deflategate thing was a bunch of garbage, because they won 2 super bowls after that, it had 0 effect on the games, I know there are alot of haters out there because they always win, but give credit to what they have accomplished, they aren't cheaters.
What's missing from this is on the play BEFORE David Tyree's helmet made a catch, Asante Samuel dropped what would have been a 19-0 sealing interception. One of those hidden plays that no one notices, but is decisive.
They did show it
First of all the ball was high, off his fingertips. Would have taken a phenomenal catch. Second, if he did hang on to it there's better than a fair chance he would have wound up out of bounds. Watch the play again. Pats fans always talk about that as if that was the only play that didn't go their way. How about Eli missing a wide open Plax with the score 10-7 Giants? Would have resulted in a first down, taken time off the clock and maybe another Giants TD. If "ifs" and "buts" were candy and nuts every single day would be Xmas!
Junior Seau...his face said it best...biggest upset ever. Unbelievable.
When Strahan flexed after that big sack on Brady, that’s when I realized we actually had a real chance at winning.
NY Giants was meant to ruin undefeated season on NE Patriots.This was easily greatest victory in franchise history.
1:12 - 1:23 - A great motivational speech by one of the greatest leaders in NFL history.
I am looking for this video for a lot of yeras now. It was on the NFL site as an NFL film, it had a Game of the Week introduction. I think this is not the exact video but the music and everything seems to be extremely close to it. I do not watch american football, but this video just made that entire thing extremely epic and it tells an amazing story.
I'm watching this video wide eye as if for the first time. Still amazed by my #GMEN. #Greatestupset. #NY stand up. Love this game. #Manningbrothers.
The Broncos in this Super Bowl against the Panthers, can be what the Giants were against the Patriots. The Giants had the #1 Defense in football in 2007. The Broncos have the #1 Defense this year. Peyton Manning isn't what he was, but I believe Denver has the ability to keep the Panthers in striking distance. Ever since his return Denver hasn't turned the ball over, and they have been balanced on both sides of the football. If they're not careful with the football, Denver IMO, will win Super Bowl 50.
the giants did not have the number one defense
bxty 95 My mistake. They had the #1 Defense in the Playoffs in 2007. They knocked off every top team in the Postseason. Tampa Bay, won their division, the Giants win the Wildcard Game in Tampa. They go to Big D, and knock of the 13-3 Cowboys. The following week, they go to Blizzard Green Bay, and retired Brett Farve, "The First Time." Lol. Then they do the impossible by stopping the 18-0 Patriots. This Denver team reminds me of the 2007 Giants. I could be wrong. Carolina could smash Denver, but if their pass rush does to Carolina, what they have been doing all year, this will be a close, defensive, and competitive game similar to Super Bowl 42.
Fucking Giants had the 17th ranked defense in 2007, idiot. They were not even close to being a dominant defense.They were mediocre that Season. Gave up 42 to the Vikes that year, 45 to the cowboys,, and 38 to the Pats just a month earlier.The Pats just choked this game and put up a dud performance offensively.
Arch Hades True, but they had the #1 Defense in the Playoffs, which was the main reason they beat New England along with the other top seeded teams in their conference. You want to start name calling "cyber thug" You're probably a bitter Patriots Fan. I always come across a clown like you that wants to match wits. Since you know so much, who was the last player to win 3 straight Super Bowls? Smart ass! Don't look it up. Shoot it from the hip.
KORY ANDREL SCOTT I'm not a Pats fan i live in Tennessee. Lol. Pretty sure New England's Defense played just as well statistically as the Giants D in the 07 playoffs. But anyway Giants defense did play significantly better in the playoffs than they did in the regular season. But they were hardly 85 Bears esque or something.
The best part of this game was seeing baby boy Brady walk off the field with that big pout on his face hahaha.
Sadly, all of this glory was ruined by the Seattle Seahawks, the Atlanta Falcons, and the L.A. Rams
* Seattle decided to pass the ball instead of running it, which resulted in an interception by the Patriots.
* Atlanta ran out of gas.
* Los Angeles showed too much respect for the Patriots.
The only team which played an outstanding role against the Patriots in the last Super Bowls were the Eagles.
0:45 awesome speach by Strahan. This o line only conceded 21 sacks all season. But the Giants got 5 that day and alot of qb hits to rattle Brady.
the choke of the century
Its not like they were playing the cleveland browns. Even the patriots knew the game wasn't a gimmie. Belichick remarked that he knew it was going to be tough since they only won by 3 points the previous time they played.
Funny you should mention that since the Browns were actually 10-6 on the season and lost the divisional tie breaker due to a Steelers sweep. Actually, the worst team in the NFL by far that year were the Miami Dolphins, who were one of the rare few teams to have posted a dreaded 1-15 record.
pats ran into eli, the best 4th quarter qb in nfl history
nope now the fslcons choked against the patriots with a 25 point lead
I guess but this giants team was really good
Hey man, please upload the rest these are really good
Can u keep doing videos like this I enjoy these
Greatest Super Bowl ever with the greatest play ever.
That would be Super Bowl 49 with Malcolm Butler's interception
Eli Manning was tough. He had the heart of A champion
"A Perfect Ending" almost as good as "A Giant Upset" lol
No team & I MEAN: NO TEAM is EVER going to beat the [1972] Miami Dolphins (Perfection Season), it remains undefeated in the NFL History!
Fun fact .Tom Brady took his team 80 yards down the field to score with moss
Eli Manning took his team 83 yards down the field to score with plax
It's pure and simple without the Manning brothers especially Eli in this game, Tom Brady has his perfect record at 19-0 instead of 18-1. Brady most likely has 9 or 10 Super Bowls especially Peyton's first Super Bowl win one since Bill Belichick would have a game plan against Rex Grossman and the Bears. If the Patriots don't lose against the Colts in 2006, they most likely beat the Bears. It would have been interesting to see how the Pats would have done against the Seahawks the first time, but really Tom Brady would have had at least 9 or 10 Super Bowls if Peyton and Eli weren't there playing against them. Eli came through when he had to and that catch by Tyree helped a hell of a lot. Eli won his two Super Bowl against Brady and that's all the stat matters 2-0 in Super Bowls against Brady.
Oof even a decade plus the pain still hurts of seeing rhe perfect season go up in smoke
The very first super bowl I saw great moment right there
Hate that the NFL highlights skipped 3 plays between the Tyree catch & the TD
One of the best days of my life and one of the worst thank you Giants
I watched this game with a Giants fan and a Dolphins fan and the Dolphins fan was a lot happier! I'm sure you know why!
that david tyree catch will forever give me trauma
18-1 ... Ooooops..... the Giants showed the world, don't count us out.
The perfect season lays in the balance!!!!! The giants win oh my god!!!!!!!!
Patriots were caught cheating after most of their Super Bowl seasons the giants beat them twice when they were cheating that is what makes this Super Bowl the best in history!!!! And Eli manning making that throw and avoiding the sack then the catch!!!! Best game ever by far!!!!
Derrick Lake they were accused twice of breaking the rules after week 1 2007 and after beating the colts in early 2015. They never got caught cheating after a SB, but nice try idiot
@@BillyBob-ti2fz Correction: they were CAUGHT cheating in week 1 of 2007 at Giants Stadium during a game against the Jets because then Jets coach Eric Mangini tipped off the NFL that the Pats were recording opponents' hand signals. The men recording the Jets were caught during the game. Mangini knew this because he actually was involved in doing it for Belichick when he worked for the Patriots. The Patriots were later accused of deflating footballs for a playoff game against the Ravens, but that's nearly impossible to prove after the game was over.
I will never tire of the Giants beating the $&&@& out of Tom Brady I love watching this Super Bowl one of if not the very best most definitely
Still amazing to watch.
That’s what the Giants are missing right now (besides an o line). Some toughness.
All the nfl is missing it
7:42 awesome stuff from Steve spagnuola. I expect him to also figure out a way to stop the niners offense in the Superbowl.
That play with Manning and Tyree something of legend. How Eli escaped the rush part 1 how Tyree caught the ball with one hand. I was once a Wide Receiver I made circus catches I’ve seen circus catches that catch Tyree made circus catch of circus catches
I loved this game
Perfection does not come easy. Losses do not come harder.
In the immortal words of Ric Flair.....Wooooooo!!!!
the best comeback in nfl history!!!
UIN, TUCK, STRAHAM.... good ass defense and then you add JPP IN 2011
eli better than pats
Great video. thanks!
Mike Strahan Is Awesome Too!!
Brady said he'd give up 2 Rings 💍 to have a perfect season
“But New England moves best through the air” so true that season
My right ear enjoyed this.
Super Bowl 46 proved that Super Bowl 42 wasn't a fluke for the Giants.
Being a San Diegan, my heart broke for Junior Seau.
The NFL version of New York Yankees vs. Boston Red Sox.
the patriots are the yankees and the giants are the red sox.
Max Payne but they are in different conferences.
+1990Thunderbolt - This is weird, even if the older Boston sports fans were more for the Giants due to the Patriots being a newer team that came in with the AFL in the 1960s.
i just know couple of patriots and yankees fans. especially if you're from connecticut.
Yeah it depends on which part of the state, especially the southern part.
In a related note, the Giants offensive line can block better in the video than what went on tonight.
Bradshaw, Jacobs, Toomer, Burress, Tyree, Pierce, Alford, webster, Manning (at that time). None of them are super stars. However, working together as as team, made them beat the best team in NFL history.
Eli “The Boston Strangler” Manning.
