Football fan in the Northeast really couldn’t have asked for anything more, as teams from the two biggest markets in the area are going to square off against one another in what has become a true rivalry of teams across conferences. Anyone who was around four years ago remembers just how epic the Super Bowl was between the Giants and the Patriots, as they fought for the full 60 minutes tooth and nail before WR David Tyree made the catch that might go down in the history of the game as the best football play ever, and WR Plaxico Burress caught the touchdown pass that led to one of the biggest upsets in Super Bowl history as well. It was the first championship and the true coming out party for QB Eli Manning, who is now four years older and wiser. Now, he is considered one of the truly elite quarterbacks in the game, standing right beside the man that he is going to face once again in this title game, QB Tom Brady.

There really is no reason that you wouldn’t want to watch this game. Obviously, both of these teams have tremendous offenses that chuck the pigskin all over the field. Brady and Manning threw for over 10,000 yards between them this year, making them the first tandem of quarterbacks to throw for over 10,000 yards in a Super Bowl matchup. WR Victor Cruz came out of nowhere to be one of the top receivers in the league this season, while both WR Hakeem Nicks and WR Mario Manningham have the ability to do some real damage as well. When Brady played in the Super Bowl four years ago, he and WR Randy Moss were breaking a ton of passing and receiving records. Now, it is Brady and TE Rob Gronkowski that are rewriting the record books. Gronkowski had one of the best seasons that a tight end ever had in the NFL, and he is flanked by another tight end that would be a tremendous stud on virtually any other roster in the game, TE Aaron Hernandez. WR Wes Welker led the league in receptions once again this season, and he is always the dependable target, while WR Deion Branch was more or less the forgotten man in the offense. Remember, of all of the wide receivers in this game, it is Branch that is the only one to already have a Super Bowl MVP award to his credit.

The teams both were flawed this year as well, but both have figured out how to work past their flaws. The New England defense, which ranked second to last in the league this season, has come up with two sturdy games in a row, and the team’s secondary is finding ways to do just enough thanks to an improved pass rush. The Giants had the worst rushing attack in the NFL this year, but all of a sudden, RBs Ahmad Bradshaw and Brandon Jacobs are taking on the form that they used to have when they combined to make one of the most vaunted ground games in the league. A much maligned secondary has come up with some big games, including shutting down QB Matt Ryan, frustrating QB Aaron Rodgers, who might be the league’s MVP this year, and halting the momentum built by QB Alex Smith this season.

Needless to say, this Super Bowl has the potential to be remarkable, and it is surely going to be a game that you don’t want to miss. Be sure to tune into Super Bowl 46 between the New York Giants and the New England Patriots at 6:30 p.m. (ET) on Sunday, February 5th on NBC
