Bill Burt: Only the Patriots can beat the Patriots … and they won't

Does this sound familiar, Patriots fans?

A team that came out of nowhere, beginning the season at 0-2.

They have a coach who didn’t make a lot of friends in his previous job.

They are massive underdogs for the Super Bowl against a recent champion.

If you said the 2001 New England Patriots, you are half right. If you said the 2007 New York Giants, you are half right.

The point is the Giants have a lot in common with the Patriots’ first championship team.

Read it all. I am just wishing for a competitive game, which in a number of Super Bowls has not happened–KSH.

    Pulling for the Giants… but I admit the odds are long.

  2. St. Jimbob of the Apokalypse says:

    The Giants seem to be the hungrier of the two. Half-time scores are tight, so a Giants win is not out of the question.

  3. Jody+ says:

    It looks like the Giants beat the Pats after all.

  4. Jeffersonian says:

    Would Mr. Burt like to revise and extend his remarks this morning?
