It was an absolute thriller!
Eli Manning proved he is a really good quarterback tonight as he lead the New York Giants through an amazing fourth quarter, highlighted by an unbelievable 38-yard pass caught by Mario Manningham.
Down 17-15 in the fourth quarter, Eli did his thing. And with 57-second remaining in the game, Hakeem Nicks seemed to flop into the endzone. The team wasn’t able to score a two point conversion.
So 57-seconds remaining. And Tom Brady is the quarterback. Nothing to be nervous about. Right Giants fans!
Brady made some great passes but just couldn’t catch a break. Justin Tuck and the New York Giants defense happened too. With 5 seconds remaining and the Patriots on the 50 yard line, Brady chucked a Hail Mary pass that was knocked down in the end zone. And just like that, the Giants became Super Bowl Champs.
The is the second Super Bowl Championship for Eli Manning with the Giants. Eli won the Super Bowl MVP.
It’s time to acknowledge it, guys. Eli is good.
