| RolStoppable said: Well, what did I say that was a lie? The reason why the Patriots are still favored could be that they won their last eight regular season games. It's not like they are suddenly a bad team, because the Giants played great in the playoffs. Although for clarification, how significant is it if one team is favored by three points? Is that a lot? As for Rodgers, I need to see some actual quotes to make up my mind, because the media certainly likes to blow everything out of proportion. Also, it would be worth reconsidering your position of not being a Giants fan. You use words like "our" to describe the team. |
3 points is not alot. Getting into 7 points and above is when you can start to say a team is heavily favored. Double digit differentials are massive and I think there has only been 3 instances that a team has won a playoff game when being the underdog by double digits.
Two came in 2001, both by the Patriots in the AFC championship and Superbowl. I think they were 13 point underdogs for that superbowl
The third that I remember was in 2007 when the Patriots were 13 point favorites to win the Superbowl and were upset by the Giants.
