Tebow time makes way for Manning mania as Giants dismantle Packers
In 2008 when the Patriots were hoping to complete the perfect season an Eli Manning hail mary pass to David Tyree helped create one of the biggest shocks in NFL history.
In the wee hours of Monday morning, it happened again. Manning threw a hail mary just before half-time and running back Ahmad Bradshaw reached highest to grab the pigskin from a sea of hands. The Green Bay Packers had been the season-long favourites to win the Superbowl. But that touchdown and the Giants’ second-half defence ensured a 37-20 New York victory.
