They got hot at the right time of the season.
They played great on defense and only turned it over once on offense. My point has been that they got some important breaks and that surely helped. The difference between Belichek being the greatest coach in history and a disgruntled guy who left the field early was the ball going through his best corners hands. That is not taking anything away from the Giants. I also dont buy that this is the biggest upset in history. That would be a discredit for the Giants because they are a really good team. NE beating the Rams in 2002 was a more unlikely outcome and the Jets in 69 will be hard to top. I mean they played a month ago and lost by 3 to the same team.
