Default SuperBowl Predictions

Posted By: JK

PC - to say the Giants beat the bills in 1991 on a miscue just isnt accurate at all. True, the bills missed a last second field goal - but it was from 47 yards out and was by no means a sure thing. Missing a 47 yarder is hardly a miscue - its not like fumbling a snap, etc. Second, in terms of excitement, the 1991 game was a thousand times more interesting than last nights game. In case you dont recall the game, it also involved several lead changes in the forth - the Bills took a 19-17 lead early in the fourth. The Giants reclaimed the lead late in the fourth 20-19. The Bills then went on a 70+ yard drive in the final 2 minutes leading to the missed fg with 8 seconds left. Even if the giants had lost, that game was a far better game than last nights.

Edited to add - the one point differential is still the closest game in SB history.
