New England Patriots vs New York Giants
Super Bowl XLVI (46) Party @ Tonic

Endless Draft Beers, Wine, Champagne and Food!

There’s a lot of pressure on this Giants-Patriots Super Bowl. Nobody, after all, wants to see another game that’s lost instead of won. We’d much rather see a game like the first Giants-Patriots Super Bowl five years ago, when the Pats drove 80 yards in the closing minutes to take the lead, and the Giants drove 83 — with the help of David Tyree’s magic fingers — to rip the Lombardi Trophy (and a perfect 19-0 season) out of New England’s hands. That’s the kind of resolution these marquee matchups. 

It’s fascinating — and totally unforeseen — what’s happened with the Giants and Patriots. Despite being in different conferences, they’ve actually become fierce rivals. All three of their meetings in recent years have been down-to-the-last-possession classics.

About Super Bowl 46...

New York Giants

With a 9–7 record during the regular season, the Giants returned to the playoffs for the first time since 2008, when they won the NFC East and finished the season as the NFC's #4 seed. The Giants entered their week 17 match up with the Cowboys with both teams tied for the division lead with 8–7 records. The Giants took a 21–0 first half lead and while the Cowboys closed the gap to make the score 21–14 early in the 4th quarter, the Giants held on to defeat the Cowboys 31–14, clinching the divisional title and a playoff berth. Then they advanced to the playoffs by defeating the teams with the two best records in the NFL, knocking off the 15-1 Green Bay Packers 37-20 and the 13-3 San Francisco 49ers 20-17 on Lawrence Tynes' game winning field goal in overtime

New York's offense was led by pro bowl quarterback Eli Manning, in his seventh season as the team's starter. Manning set new career highs in nearly every statistical category in 2011, throwing for a franchise record 4,933 yards and 29 touchdowns, with 16 interceptions, giving him a 92.9 passer rating. His top target was receiver Victor Cruz, who caught 82 passes for a franchise record 1,536 yards (3rd in the NFL) and 9 touchdowns. But he had plenty of other targets, including Hakeem Nicks (76 receptions, 1,192 yards, 7 touchdowns), Mario Manningham (39 receptions and 523 yards in 12 games) and tight end Jake Ballard (38 receptions, 604 yards, 15.9 average)

Running back Ahmad Bradshaw was the team's leading rusher with 659 yards and 9 touchdowns. He was also a reliable weapon in the passing game, hauling in 34 receptions for 267 yards and two touchdowns. Brandon Jacobs also made a big contribution on the ground, rushing for 571 yards and 7 touchdowns.

New York's defensive line was led by defensive ends Jason Pierre-Paul and Osi Umenyiora. Pierre-Paul racked up 86 combined tackles and ranked fourth in the NFL with 16.5 sacks, earning him the only pro bowl selection on the Giants defense, while Umenyiora recorded 9 sacks and 2 forced fumbles. New York also had an excellent secondary led by Corey Webster, who intercepted a career high 6 passes. Defensive backs Kenny Phillips and Aaron Ross added four interceptions each, while safetyAntrel Rolle picked off two passes and led the team in combined tackles with 96.

New England Patriots

The Patriots finished with a 13-3 record, winning the AFC East and clinching the AFC's #1 seed in the playoffs. New England lost two straight games in weeks 8 and 9 against the Pittsburgh Steelers and the Giants, respectively, before rallying to win their last remaining regular season games. In the playoffs, New England defeated the Denver Broncos, and then the Baltimore Ravens in the AFC Championship Game.

Back at the helm of the offense was 12-year veteran quarterback Tom Brady who earned his 7th pro bowl selection, completing 65.6% of his passes for a career high 5,246 yards (the second highest total in NFL history) and 39 touchdown passes, with just 12 interceptions and a rating of 105.6. Brady also added 109 yards and another three scores on the ground. His main weapon in the passing game was pro bowl receiver Wes Welker, who led the NFL with 122 receptions (22 receptions ahead of second place) for 1,569 yards and 9 touchdowns. New England also had two of the best tight ends in the NFL, Pro Bowler Rob Gronkowski, who set new tight end records for receiving (1,327 yards) and touchdown catches (17), and Aaron Hernandez, who caught 79 passes for 910 yards and 7 touchdowns, while also rushing for 45 yards. Another big element of the passing game was veteran receiver Deion Branch, who caught 51 passes for 702 yards and 5 scores.

New England had several key contributors in the ground game. Their main rusher was BenJarvis Green-Ellis, who rushed for 667 yards and 11 touchdowns, while running back Stevan Ridley added 447 yards and a 5.1 yards per carry average. Danny Woodhead contributed 351 yards with a 4.6 YPC average, and gained another 437 yards returning kickoffs. New England also had a solid offensive line with two pro bowl guards, Logan Mankins and Brian Waters. With all these weapons, New England ranked third in the NFL with 513 points.

The Patriots defensive line featured two pro bowl selections, Vince Wilfork and Andre Carter, who racked up 10 sacks and forced two fumbles. Defensive End Mark Anderson was also a major force up front, earning 10 sacks and two forced fumbles of his own. Behind them, Rob Ninkovich excelled at linebacker, gaining 74 tackles, 6.5 sacks, and two interceptions. In the secondary, cornerback Kyle Arrington had a breakout season. After recording just one interception in his first three years, Arrington picked off 7 passes in 2011, while also leading the team in tackles with 88.
