    All the Belichek cheating makes me wonder...

    ....about SB XXV.

    How does a team that is favored by 10 points end up losing to a team they had already beaten? (in their home park!)

    How is it the Bills only have the ball for 19 minutes? (They averaged 28+ for the season)

    I always wondered how the Giants even got past the 49ers that year.

    Well, Belichick is a fruit ( pun intended ) from the Parcells coaching tree. Maybe he learned from the master.
    Should have known, way back in 1960 when we drafted Richie Lucas Number 1, that this would be a long, hard ride. But who could have known it would be THIS bad?

      Possibly.

      When I saw Parcells interviewed on the subject last season, all he did was laugh it off.

        Yeah, the guy's a real riot.

          You miss a FG in the waning seconds, that's how.

          NY's defense really didn't slow down the teams offense, considering they put up 17 pts in only 19 minutes. It was their offense dominating our defense that did the trick.

            Jeff Hoss sucked and never did anything that exciting before or after SB XXV, he must of knew our defenses called during the game or had some leg up.

            You play that same game 10 times and the Bills win 8.

              In Friday's Washington Post, NFL reporter Mark Maske quotes former Giants quarterback Phil Simms contending that stolen signals are no guarantee of victory: "'I've been in games where we knew every signal, every call by the other team, and we still lost,' Simms said by telephone yesterday. 'We [the Giants] had the San Diego Chargers' signals in 1980. We knew every signal. We knew every play. We were calling out what they were going to do: 'Here comes this. Here comes that.' They still scored 44 points.'" After more Simms quotes, the article moved to other matters. Who was on the New York Giants' coaching staff in 1980? Bill Belichick and Ernie Adams.

                Tackle a never was, half mediocre receiver on 3rd and 13 and we are not having this discussion.

                  I don't disagree Eb...my feeling is that the Giants should have never even been that close in the first place.

                    there were a lot of schananigans going on his that game...how many times did their LBs "trip" over the football just after the official put it down??

                      The 3rd quarter was hardly smoke and mirrors. Most plays were still Otis Anderson right, Otis Anderson left.

                      They kicked our ass up front.

                        Again, I don't disagree.

                        But when you consider we defeated the fish 44-34, and the raiders 51-3, it just makes me wonder, that's all.

                        I was at both of those playoff games. The Raiders didn't even know where to line up on D because Kelly just kept pounding away at them.
