The long and exhilarating NFL season has finally come to an end. The New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots 21-17 in Super Bowl 46. Eli Manning won the MVP with clutch plays like the pass on the game winning drive to Mario Manningham and setting a new Super Bowl record for consecutive completed passes to start the Super Bowl, 9. The Giants won their 4th Super Bowl by keeping the game close and handing the ball to the confident, cluth Eli Manning. Eli once again led the Giants on a Super Bowl winning drive in the final minute. The drive was highlighted by a 38 yard catch, Manning to Manningham. Ahmad Bradshaw finished the drive with a rushing touchdown. The drive left the Patriots with just 57 seconds. Brady heaved a desperation pass in the final seconds but it was knocked down in the end zone. I believe there are two intriguing questions that come from Super Bowl 46. Is Eli Manning now a hall of famer and has Tom Brady's leagacy diminshed? Let me answer both questions first, YES! Eli has put together an impressive resume with two Super Bowl wins, two Super Bowl MVPs, a NFL record 5 playoff road wins, a near 5,000 yard season, and many others. With Manning's truimph, Brady's legacy has taken a hit. Brady is now 2-4 in his last 6 playoffs games and now has lost 2 straight Super Bowls to the Giants. Overall, the NFL season was a success considering no one was sure we were even going to see games this year.
