I would have to say that if any team is a 12 point favorite they shouldn't need or have to rely on lucky breaks. The Giants defense did something no other team was able to do this year and put Brady on his rear end several times. And lucky breaks? 12 men on the field call wasn't lucky? The interception off the hands of Smith wasn't lucky? The lob pass that Manning missed Plexico on when he was rolling out was very very lucky for the Patriots. If the Giants convert there, then there may not have been even a need for a comeback. So, people can come up with this lucky break hogwash all they want to, but the result is what it is. Great job Giants.
