I will never forget watching Super Bowl 42 at the frat house when I was in college in Indiana. We had one bro from New York who was steadfast in his Giants fandom for years. We were all surrogate Giants fans with him because we were Colts fans who fucking hated the Patriots. When we realized in the second half that the Giants could actually pull this off, we started taking turns going into the back room to load ice water into a cooler without the Giants fan's knowledge. When the game ended, a few of us snuck up on him and gave him the full winning coach treatment. He loved it, and he didn't even care that the water destroyed his 2008-era flip phone.
"It's really unfair. That's my team. That's my quarterback." Former Eagles wideout Terrell Owens, crying on the air over our mortal foes, was more than enough to make me smash that like button.
2007 Giants best season and football team ever. We made owens cry, retired favre from GB and stomped out patriots chance at history. This video makes me a little emotional.
“Retired Favre from GB” Favre probably leaves in the off-season even if they go to the Super Bowl. Hell, I even think if Favre upsets the 18-0 Pats, he retires for good and never becomes a Jet or Viking. Nice job beating us, but the Giants had jack shit to do with Favre retiring.
Here's the thing: The Giants were a good team that year and definitely playoff worthy, so this disrespect is completely unwarranted. They were 10-6 and clinched a playoff spot in Week 16 (rendering their last game against NE worthless in regards to their playoff standings). They won 10 games, most of them on the road, they won 6 in a row in convincing fashion, and they did this in a highly competitive NFC East where three of the four teams made the playoffs. Dallas was the number one seed in the NFC, the Skins were the other wildcard, and the 8-8 better than their record Eagles were nipping at their heels, and with all that, they still made the playoffs. And lets look at the 6 games they lost: They lost two to Dallas, the number one seed in the NFC. They lost one to Green Bay, the number 2 seed in the NFC. They lost one to the undefeated NE Patriots in a game that meant nothing to their playoff standing and played them hard till the end. They lost one to the other wildcard team and division rivals, the Redskins in a bad weather game where they insisted on passing all game instead of running. Their only true disaster of the year was the fiasco against Minnesota. My point is, it isn't like they were losing to shitball teams. 4 of their losses came against teams that got a 1st week bye in the playoffs and they only lost to one team that didn't make the playoffs. In my mind, that put them at playoff worthy but not likely to go all the way. So the experts picking Dallas and Green Bay and New England over them...okay, I understand those. But why on God's Green Earth did they think Tampa Bay was going to wipe the floor with the Giants? TB won their division with a 9-7 record, so if anything, they were the ones lucky to be there. I fully expected the Giants to win that game and I was not surprised that they did. The Buccs were not that good, and clearly benefited from being in a, at the time, weak division. And then after they beat Dallas, you'd think the Giants would get SOME respect, but nope! Lambeau Field is Magic and the Pats are unbeatable and the Giants are just lucky to be witnesses to history. Ridiculous. Oh well, the squad showed them all a thing or two.
WELL SAID. it's one of the greatest upsets ever but to fans like me who watched and played alot of Madden 08 that season, it felt kinda inevitable, i wasnt shocked. I used the Giants online and played Cover 2 and did what they did by rushing 4, avoiding the big play or mistake, I knew the Patriot upset was possible after the Dallas game. I remember saying on the GameFaqs forums this was the modern Joe Namath SB3 guarantee upset and people laughed. And forget about 2011, I saw that coming a mile away after they beat Aaron Rodgers 15-1 team too. That WR trio was the best Eli ever had and the Giants only had to shut down a weaker Pats team focused on Gronk and Hernandez.
+Robert Colontonio & That's why Patriots fans will hate us FOREVER!!! Pretty much makes up for what the Red Sox did to the Yankees in the 2004 ALCS... That's the one they can NEVER get back, I love it xD
Ludvig Borga Even in baseball, if you look at the stats, historically it’s significantly more common than not that a great but not widely-accepted or clear best team of the season that wins the World Series. For example, seasons like the previous one where you have pretty much the best and second-best (and it’s really hard to debate which is which) teams going at it.
Ambient Heaven, nope. On any given Super Bowl Sunday, the team that makes the key plays are the best team. When I look at two teams, I mainly look at match-ups. That Giant team along with the one in Superbowl 46 matched up well with the Patriots. There are two things that the Giants did to the Patriots. They first stopped them from being undefeated in the most important game of the season (Superbowl) thus making them 18-1 and as a 9-7 team 4 years later, they stopped the Patriots again. In that season, the 9-7 Giants beat the three teams with the best records in the NFL that season (Green Bay, New England, and San Francisco). No other team can make these claims!
Ridiculous statement as everyone still brings up this team and even has them higher on "all time great" lists than the actual SB winning teams for New England.
Jeez, I didn't realize it was that bad at the time lol. Beautiful. Still remember Brady's infamous "hurr hurr we're only gonna score 17 points? Haha okay" and then it turned out Plax overestimated them
I'm a giants fan and I knew the giants were gonna beat the pats in the superbowl. The last game of the season told me everything I needed to know. The bucs, cowboys and packers were just road bumps in their way.
@@jacksonconley5117 you have no idea still pissed to this day. I even told my cousin in law back in ‘06 Peyton wins ‘06 and Eli ‘07 NFL Story and it did happen what I said. Giants 2007 preseason odds 3000 and end of season odds 5000. Imagen putting about 5k on each odds
Beat a 10-6 Tampa Bay, 13-3 Cowboys, 13-3 Green Bay and 16-0 Patriots. All on the road by the way, as the wild card. It's how bad you want it, not about who you have or what your record is. Once the playoffs start, everyone is 0-0
@@platinumdiamond7hate yall too but good on you for being the only other team to beat brady in the big game. Good luck next season its looking great for the birds
As a Giant fan I always felt that the Pats deserve that undefeated season more than the Dolphins,, I'm just sorry it was my Giant that destroyed it for you guys,, I know that really must have hurt..👍✌ That's the only thing I regretted about that Super Bowl win..
The Giants were underdogs in their last 4 Super Bowl appearances, winning 3 (losing only to the Ravens). The only time they were favored was vs Denver in their first ever SB. They won. As a lifelong Giant fan, I can tell you, winning when it's not expected is sweet.
In my honest opinion, this run was much more impressive than the 2017 Eagles. The '07 Giants had to go on the road 3 times. I repeat, THREE times, and then had to face a record breaking 16-0 team in the superbowl. That season must have been fun af for Giants fans. As a Saints fan, I would prefer to have a similar scenario to accomplish the 2nd ring like that. The 2017 Eagles were no joke, however.
You been fortunate to have drew breeze all those years though, he has been right up there with brady, and Rodgers but doesn't quite seem to get the same recognition.
+kwsrchoudhury Well technically we didn't send em home cuz they were already home in Dallas LOL, always better when they lose on their home turf, rubs extra salt in the wound xD
i mean... it was the 18-0 patriots who had tom brady+randy moss and a hell of a defense that was an assante samuel drop away from completing the 19-0 run, anybody with common sense thiught the patriots would win but the giants came in and pulled off a miracle 3 weeks in a row
As a Giants fan, I remember the exact moment I realized that the Giants had a real, serious chance to beat New England and win the Super Bowl. Second quarter, Giants down 7-3, Patriots' ball, they go three-and-out, and while the Giants didn't have a sack on that particular drive, they knocked down Brady on each down. After the unsuccessful 3rd down play, Brady got up, turf in his facemask, walked towards the sideline, looked at his coaches, and shrugged his shoulders with his hands in the air, as if to say, "What the fuck is going on here?!?" I immediately thought to myself, "Holy shit... he's already rattled... they might actually win this game."
I like bringing up Superbowls to my friends who are Philip river fans. Lol Eli Manning is the only two time Superbowl winner where people will say "well Superbowls are a team effort" tell that to shitty as Terry brandshaw.. his 75 career qb rating and 4 Superbowls
@@kennethlee2024 70.9 career QB rating wasn't bad in that era. Staubach's 83.4 was the record when he retired. Eli's was 84.1 in an era where we have multiple guys get over 100 every season. And Bradshaw's rating was 12.1 higher when it mattered most. No, Bradshaw wasn't a four-time SB champ caliber player, but he complimented his D and running game well, and he was really friggin' clutch.
This is easily my favorite NFL playoff run and I'm not even a Giants fan. No one gave them a chance but they weren't having any of it. Kicked ass on the road thru the playoffs and upset the Pats' perfect season.
Webster50 So many games we woulda won in 2015. I wanted the win over the patriots, but that heartbreaking dropped int from LC killed that. Brady be 2-4 against the giants. Though he's still 2-3 Vs Eli.
Im a San Diego Chargers fan........But to tell you the truth the '07 Giants run is the greatest Superbowl run I ever witnessed....Eli Manning knew what He was doing when He rejected being with My Chargers. Much respects
I just loved the feeling this season I got after seeing Eli and this team come out every week and shove it down all their throats. Such an amazing Super Bowl win.
In the playoffs: 8-0 in 2007 and 2011, 0-4 rest of his career. Eli was always one of the best when he was on and one of the most frustrating QBs when he was not.
Why was Brian Westbrook interviewing Eli? Weird seeing as he was still an active player, and fucked us up the next season. 2008 still makes me sick. Fucking Burress. We would've repeated had he not been a damn fool.
I love it. Haters flip-flop on how this team was in its success. On one hand, they were lucky, on the other hand, people act like they had the #1 highest rated defense of all time. They had heart and got healthy at the right time. Any Giants fan who watched them play the Pats the last game of the regular season knew they could go toe to toe with the Pats and anybody once they got hot. They say Eli was carried, yet his stats for both runs were phenomenal. They can't stand the Giants won this one or the rematch.
Idk why they said he was carried when he had the highest rated completion % in the 07 run and he had like 15 TD in the Fourth QT in 2011 run so his defense helped but he had as much of the reason of the success than the defense
"We've had a great run so far,no one's given us credit, but we like it that way" - Eli manning. It really shows he was a giant, and also I think embodies most giants Fan's feelings for every season we've done good in recently
I remember this Giants run & their 2012 Superbowl run. I'm not a Giants fan but I rooted for them especially when they played New England....twice. I remember back when the 2007 SB run everyone was up the Patriots ass(which was understandable because they went undefeated....) Whenever you tell a professional football team they have "no chance" to win a game especially in the NFL where any given Sunday is no joke, you are setting yourself up for failure. I love an underdog.
Jon Snow fuck you. Giants won it fair and square, I admit that. I like seeing them champions. Just not against my team. I'm not saying fuck the giants cause they beat us and your saying fuck the patriots and they didn't even win.
I wish they had included Tom Brady's smug ass in this video when he laughed at the prediction of the score for the game. Im so happy the Giants beat his bitch ass not once but twice in a Super Bowl!
ktw5086 Eh, it's a 50/50 shot no matter how you look at it, and on paper there picks were right... the Giants in 07 simply had an unbelievable amount of intangibles and a will to win. That doesn't always translate into stats on paper.
Lombremic. I am not sure why you got so upset at my observations. Maybe we all need to relax a little more. As for 'Due to lose'. It is very rare for a team to go undefeated in a season and then continue that in the playoffs. The Miami Dolphins are the only team to do that. Prior to them 2 other teams went undefeated in the regular season and then lost the NFL championship. Also I did not think the Pat’s were playing as well at the end of the regular season and in the playoffs as they were earlier in the year. So that is where due for a loss comes from. Not a guarantee but a feeling. And your reference to the Browns. Winless seasons do occur more often than undefeated seasons. 3 winless, tieless seasons since the mid 70's. Frankly they are easier to accomplish. As for whom I picked. I really did not pick anybody. I rooted for the Giants but I generally don’t bet on sports anymore. I think my thought was that the Giants would make it closer than the spread of 11 or 12 but I did not put any money down on it. Betting was never a big thing for me and I just kind of dropped it. As for your reference’ to go all in with’ I really do not play cards, I don’t go to Casino’s and generally don’t gamble that much or at all. It’s just not my thing. I like to do things outside like hike, ski in the winter and bike ride when warm enough. Put it this way. I am a Giants fan and I did not watch NFC championship game against the Vikings because I wanted to hike to do a particular snowshoe hike in the Catskills. Again I suggest you relax.
I hope every patriot fan, every Tampa bay fan, every cowboys fan, and every green bay packers fan is watching this. We are the underdog team and we proved everyone wrong and I'm glad to be a New York giant fan.
As a pats fan and after winning #6 i can watch these with less pain and give respect to those giants. They werent afraid of the 07 Pats 2 times that season
I'm so glad someone made a video of this. I remember this playoff run in detail seven years ago. If you were a Giants fan you knew they were going to take it all the way the second they made it to the playoffs. The Giants started the season 0-2 then picked up six straight wins. What's even greater is that they beat the undefeated patriots when it was all on the line. It taught me to always be resilient. This year changed my life. The 2007-2008 Giants will always be my heroes. Giants for life.
bruh and as a cowboys fan it taught me that no matter how great things are going there is still room for disappointment, that 07 season will always be the time romo actually had a chance
@@Grimreepa220 he said it was 6 straight. You misread. He said he remembers this playoff run 7 years ago in full detail then mentioned 6 straight wins after starting 0-2. The 0-2 was against Dallas and Green Bay and they gave up a combined 80 points in those 2 games. Got revenge on all 3 of the same teams in the playoffs after beating the bucs. Dallas, Green Bay, then the Patriots. Ill never forget that season. 11 was amazing too but this will never be topped.
Never get tired of watching this. My Father died on 12/28/2007, he would he would've been so thrilled to see them win that Super Bowl. I loved how Strahan look Terry right in the eyes.
+Hugh Jass The way it was told to me- I'm not old enough to remember the barren '70s Giants- the Giants and their fans didn't hold quite the contempt for the Cowboys as the other NFC teams because Tom Landry took care not to further embarrass the Giants in those days. Those only old enough to know the Jerry Jones Cowboys wouldn't understand. Personally, the first game I ever saw was between the Cowboys and Giants. It was so good that, not yet understanding the dynamics, I considered them my favorite teams. When Montana and the 49ers knocked them out of the playoffs on consecutive weeks, the 49ers were cemented as, and remain, my most hated team. By the 90s, I'd long since dropped the Cowboys but, as someone had to beat the 49ers, politics made for strange bedfellows.
I'm not a NYG fan, but I remember watching them play towards the end of their regular season and through the playoffs. They looked good and beat many teams that they shouldn't have. One of the greatest Super Bowl upsets ever, too. I still remember how everyone was already crowning the Patriots as champions even before playing the Super Bowl. Almost nobody gave the 2007 NY Giants a chance to win the game. Watching Jerry Jones being disappointed warranted a "like" for that alone.

Giants always the underdogs, will beat the packers this week!
Giants have won a Super Bowl the last 4 decades. 1986,1990, 2007, 2011. Hopefully they'll get things turned around soon though and get another ring before this decade ends.
This shows that with proper offense and defense leadership and everyone synced in, anything is possible for these guys! Strahan was one hell of a leader, they need that again! Go Giants!
That was the most exciting playoff run and my favorite all time SB until my Hawks won. Still the Manning SBs were almost equal in joy for me. Practice starts tomorrow for the 2023 season getting psyched.
Angelina Justin If they were truly a consistent good team for the past 15 years than if you took out 2 of their best seasons they would still look good. However they look like a completely average team. Eli manning a regular season record is 108-91 that's 54% win. They are average. Even if you look at there playoff record,(8-4) it isn't very good. Considering that out of the 6 playoff seasons they have had since manning. In only 2 of them did they even win a game.
i love when strahan was looking at bradshaw directly in the eyes when he said, "I remember hearing someone say the giants have a false sense of confidence, NO we have confidence" they shut the the world up that night, one of the best nights of my life.
+muggledon1 The 49ers should worry about ownership more than running their mouths about Big Blue. Outside of Jim Harbaugh, the Yorks don't even have a clue on running a successful franchise.
This never gets old.Jimmy keep on saying that talent win games. But if you add the 2012 playoff, the teams we face did had more talented starters than the giants but depth was different and was the key for the giants winning the 2 Super Bowl.
The Giants 2008 Super Bowl win is one of the greatest moments of my entire life, the Helmet Catch is still the greatest play in NFL history, this was one of the greatest Cinderella stories in sports, it made me proud to be a Giants fan and is everything I love about football and sports in general, and I love how history repeated itself in 2012, it's just too bad my mom made me go to school and wouldn't let me go to the parades lol.
The Philly-Special is the greatest play in history. Mainly because it was a designed play and not circumstance. Greatest catch absolutely. Not the greatest play.
I’ll never forget this! From Tampa to the SB! Lost my voice for like 2 days.. damn we need these days back! Win as underdogs but comeback next year and dominate! Like they did in 08 till Plaxico shot himself in the leg!
Yes,they did and they all took the Packers. Unfortunately, I started recording the NFC Championship right at kickoff so I failed to record the fox crew predictions. I scoured the internet trying to find the footage but had no luck.
*The Super Bowl win after the 2007 season wasn't the Giants 3rd World Championship. It was their 7th (and they now have 8 world titles as of 2020 after the 2011 season). Prior to 2007, along with the Super Bowl wins after the 1986 and 1990 seasons, they won the NFL Title in 1927, 1934, 1938, and 1956. Those championships before the Super Bowl era still count.*
What they did will never be forgotten. They won 4 road playoff games and beat an undefeated team. But the best part of this video was Terrell Owens crying...puts me on the ground every time.
I never got why people were thinking that the Pats were going to win comfortably. The Pats looked mortal, if anything, during the AFC playoffs. Both their playoff games against the Jags and Chargers were not decided until the 4th quarter with the Pats 1 mistake away from losing either game.
Experts?? The Giants have absolutely no chance. When you go to Green Bay you play the history. You know the Giants were dogs in all these games. And people picking against them is understandable. But some of the reasons. The other thing is that the Pats were not looking as dominant as they were earlier in the season. The AFC chanpionship against San Diego were LT was severely limited and Rivers was nicked up. SD got inside the 10 three times and settled for field goals. If Tomlinson was healthy would they have gotten in once? Maybe twice? All 3 times? My point is the Pats could have lost that game but for SD injuries. And SD even healthy, I would rate the Cowboys and Packers at least as good or better than SD. And the Giants beat both of them on the road. The signs were there that it would be closer than the spread of 12.5 points.
I am a very long long time New York Giant football fan and super bowl 42 was one of the absolute greatest super bowls ever and the best part about that whole game is after it was done not only are New York Giants world champions but the Giants team and all New York Giants fans throughout the world and one voice get to say perfection denied
18 wins and 1 GIANT loss
Lenny Levy 1 Giant Win

It’s a whole new season.
Preach bro
@@nygiantsfan84 As a Birds fan mad respect to your franchise. I hate y'all but for what you did to Brady I respect on your name

Greatest playoff run in Superbowl history...on the road the whole way.

Im a Pats fan but that 07 Giants team was SO underrated as far as talent
As a Giant fan I always felt that the Pats deserve that undefeated season more than the Dolphins,, I'm just sorry it was my Giant that destroyed it for you guys,, I know that really must have hurt..👍✌ That's the only thing I regretted about that Super Bowl win..
@@empire7179 you’re not a real Giants fan then
The Giants were underdogs in their last 4 Super Bowl appearances, winning 3 (losing only to the Ravens). The only time they were favored was vs Denver in their first ever SB. They won. As a lifelong Giant fan, I can tell you, winning when it's not expected is sweet.
this team was so underrated
+Franklin Clinton just like we are now
+Tyler Feliciano packers are my team but i respect the Giants
+Franklin Clinton We'll see you in the playoffs bro lol
+Tyler Feliciano No
Tyron Wells yes they was but i'm a Packers fan like you
In my honest opinion, this run was much more impressive than the 2017 Eagles. The '07 Giants had to go on the road 3 times. I repeat, THREE times, and then had to face a record breaking 16-0 team in the superbowl. That season must have been fun af for Giants fans. As a Saints fan, I would prefer to have a similar scenario to accomplish the 2nd ring like that. The 2017 Eagles were no joke, however.
MrJiffyPOPPOP
Is that even a question though? Congrats to the Eagles, but I laugh when their fans say how “underestimated” they were.
"Now I wanna be your dog!"
You been fortunate to have drew breeze all those years though, he has been right up there with brady, and Rodgers but doesn't quite seem to get the same recognition.
I so agree. Probably a part of it has to do with the whole "Bountygate" BS ever since.
MrJiffyPOPPOP - yes it was fun ..week after week was epic in the city good memories...I can tell ur a true fan of football...thanx
Jason Witten was so salty with his prediction, I bet he was rooting for the Patriots to win that game.
Thats why we sent his team crying home that season.
that's because Jason Witten knows he's never gonna win a ring, if he wanted it that bad he should have played it safe with his career in dallas....
+kwsrchoudhury Well technically we didn't send em home cuz they were already home in Dallas LOL, always better when they lose on their home turf, rubs extra salt in the wound xD
i mean... it was the 18-0 patriots who had tom brady+randy moss and a hell of a defense that was an assante samuel drop away from completing the 19-0 run, anybody with common sense thiught the patriots would win but the giants came in and pulled off a miracle 3 weeks in a row
@@kwsrchoudhury where that team at rn?😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂love dem 2 wins
Jerry Jones face: priceless.
The perfect meme
As a Giants fan, I remember the exact moment I realized that the Giants had a real, serious chance to beat New England and win the Super Bowl. Second quarter, Giants down 7-3, Patriots' ball, they go three-and-out, and while the Giants didn't have a sack on that particular drive, they knocked down Brady on each down. After the unsuccessful 3rd down play, Brady got up, turf in his facemask, walked towards the sideline, looked at his coaches, and shrugged his shoulders with his hands in the air, as if to say, "What the fuck is going on here?!?" I immediately thought to myself, "Holy shit... he's already rattled... they might actually win this game."
Jerry Jones face @ 2:13 = PRICELESS LMFAOOO
I hate that old mudafucka!
I'd say that, on my TOP TEN favorite NFL moments, Jerry Jones biting his lip or exiting the field in anger....those moments take up 7 or 8.
That and Brady's face after that undefeated season Super Bowl loss.
@@muggledon1 I loved seeing jerry's face and also I loved the part of Michael talking about TO and him talking after we won the SB. Priceless
Jerry's got a whole drawer full of extra faces.
Im an Eagles fan but I fwill forever love the giants and Eli for killin the Patriots perfect season.
Go birds
Go birds
I like bringing up Superbowls to my friends who are Philip river fans. Lol Eli Manning is the only two time Superbowl winner where people will say "well Superbowls are a team effort" tell that to shitty as Terry brandshaw.. his 75 career qb rating and 4 Superbowls
@@kennethlee2024 70.9 career QB rating wasn't bad in that era. Staubach's 83.4 was the record when he retired. Eli's was 84.1 in an era where we have multiple guys get over 100 every season. And Bradshaw's rating was 12.1 higher when it mattered most. No, Bradshaw wasn't a four-time SB champ caliber player, but he complimented his D and running game well, and he was really friggin' clutch.
@eoe123321 Eli had some pretty great receivers tho. Odell, Plaxico, Manningham, etc.
So weird seeing Brian Westbrook holding a mic
Especially since he's doing radio now & not TV.
He looks so uncomfortable lol
He was still with the eagles
@@clickycal he was practicing his next gig
Was crazy 😜.
This is easily my favorite NFL playoff run and I'm not even a Giants fan. No one gave them a chance but they weren't having any of it. Kicked ass on the road thru the playoffs and upset the Pats' perfect season.
It was a beautiful thing seeing the Patriots hopes for a perfect season dashed.
Has Bradshaw ever picked the Giants to win?
+Trollsif Stalin or jimmy johnson lol
Ryne Napier ikr
He did this season vs the panthers
Webster50 So many games we woulda won in 2015. I wanted the win over the patriots, but that heartbreaking dropped int from LC killed that. Brady be 2-4 against the giants. Though he's still 2-3 Vs Eli.
Trollsif Stalin only the saints🏈
Im a San Diego Chargers fan........But to tell you the truth the '07 Giants run is the greatest Superbowl run I ever witnessed....Eli Manning knew what He was doing when He rejected being with My Chargers. Much respects
I'm not even a Giants fan and that was cool.
I just loved the feeling this season I got after seeing Eli and this team come out every week and shove it down all their throats. Such an amazing Super Bowl win.
I'm a Bills fan this was so exciting to watch.
Both times.
LOL, Eli used to have a reputation of being bad in the big games...
I laughed at that also! Man hiw times have changed...
Victor Villari Hi
The Panthers game was his first time after all, he wasn't bad in his second postseason game.
In the playoffs: 8-0 in 2007 and 2011, 0-4 rest of his career. Eli was always one of the best when he was on and one of the most frustrating QBs when he was not.
@@Datboy1991 Too bad he's always been the latter outside those 2 years.
Why was Brian Westbrook interviewing Eli? Weird seeing as he was still an active player, and fucked us up the next season. 2008 still makes me sick.
Fucking Burress. We would've repeated had he not been a damn fool.
he has to do something during playoffs that year
fox is beyond biased with most nfc teams
Unionk1ng X nah Fox covers the NFC and CBS covers the AFC
I love it. Haters flip-flop on how this team was in its success. On one hand, they were lucky, on the other hand, people act like they had the #1 highest rated defense of all time. They had heart and got healthy at the right time. Any Giants fan who watched them play the Pats the last game of the regular season knew they could go toe to toe with the Pats and anybody once they got hot. They say Eli was carried, yet his stats for both runs were phenomenal. They can't stand the Giants won this one or the rematch.
Idk why they said he was carried when he had the highest rated completion % in the 07 run and he had like 15 TD in the Fourth QT in 2011 run so his defense helped but he had as much of the reason of the success than the defense
What a great time. I remember being a Giants fan and being told by everyone that they had no chance and each round hearing the same thing.
"We've had a great run so far,no one's given us credit, but we like it that way" - Eli manning. It really shows he was a giant, and also I think embodies most giants Fan's feelings for every season we've done good in recently
Romo went to Cabo during the bye week. 😄😄. Giants got no respect that playoff run
Lol we got the last laugh
Had Romo focused on the game and not scattered ass cowboys would have a Superbowl
Romo should have heeded the advice of General Ripper and preserved the integrity of his Precious Bodily Fluids.
Romo’s receivers dropped all his passes in that game
Dating Jessica Simpson at the time...
I remember this Giants run & their 2012 Superbowl run. I'm not a Giants fan but I rooted for them especially when they played New England....twice. I remember back when the 2007 SB run everyone was up the Patriots ass(which was understandable because they went undefeated....) Whenever you tell a professional football team they have "no chance" to win a game especially in the NFL where any given Sunday is no joke, you are setting yourself up for failure. I love an underdog.
Jon Snow fuck you. Giants won it fair and square, I admit that. I like seeing them champions. Just not against my team. I'm not saying fuck the giants cause they beat us and your saying fuck the patriots and they didn't even win.
not all fans, just some. some are pricks, some are dicks, some don't even give a shit. lol.
3 words, any given Sunday
@Jon Snow get used to it lol i mean honestly, aren't every fans are dicks? :P it's a nature of being a fan lol
TO crying is possible the greatest thing in this video besides proving all the haters wrong
If you're old enough, this is one of those "where were you when it happened" moments in history
Oh boy!! I love it!!!!!! The Giants took over the league that season!! What a magical year!! I was so happy to be alive during all this!!
For some reason I can't stop watching this video and laughing at everyone who went against the Giants.
I wish they had included Tom Brady's smug ass in this video when he laughed at the prediction of the score for the game. Im so happy the Giants beat his bitch ass not once but twice in a Super Bowl!
Well except for Frank who was the only one that knew that the Giants would win.
Xevious 1 Mike Ditka also pick the Giants to win
I get goosebumps.
They did it to philly anf guess fukin whay
The only person to get a pick right in this video was Frank Caliendo with SB 42. These guys are some "experts".
ktw5086 Eh, it's a 50/50 shot no matter how you look at it, and on paper there picks were right... the Giants in 07 simply had an unbelievable amount of intangibles and a will to win. That doesn't always translate into stats on paper.
Haha right? Why would you possibly pick a 16-0 team against a 10-6 team?
Because a 16-0 team is due for a loss. And they were not playing great in the playoffs.
Lombremic. I am not sure why you got so upset at my observations. Maybe we all need to relax a little more. As for 'Due to lose'. It is very rare for a team to go undefeated in a season and then continue that in the playoffs. The Miami Dolphins are the only team to do that. Prior to them 2 other teams went undefeated in the regular season and then lost the NFL championship. Also I did not think the Pat’s were playing as well at the end of the regular season and in the playoffs as they were earlier in the year. So that is where due for a loss comes from. Not a guarantee but a feeling. And your reference to the Browns. Winless seasons do occur more often than undefeated seasons. 3 winless, tieless seasons since the mid 70's. Frankly they are easier to accomplish.
As for whom I picked. I really did not pick anybody. I rooted for the Giants but I generally don’t bet on sports anymore. I think my thought was that the Giants would make it closer than the spread of 11 or 12 but I did not put any money down on it. Betting was never a big thing for me and I just kind of dropped it.
As for your reference’ to go all in with’ I really do not play cards, I don’t go to Casino’s and generally don’t gamble that much or at all. It’s just not my thing. I like to do things outside like hike, ski in the winter and bike ride when warm enough. Put it this way. I am a Giants fan and I did not watch NFC championship game against the Vikings because I wanted to hike to do a particular snowshoe hike in the Catskills. Again I suggest you relax.
@Pumpin George What did he mean by this?
Listen closely to 4:41, I'm pretty sure Terry Bradshaw said big "Fucking" head.
nah he said bucket head
Ryan Hardison lmao
Lol
I hope every patriot fan, every Tampa bay fan, every cowboys fan, and every green bay packers fan is watching this. We are the underdog team and we proved everyone wrong and I'm glad to be a New York giant fan.
As a pats fan and after winning #6 i can watch these with less pain and give respect to those giants. They werent afraid of the 07 Pats 2 times that season
Greatest upset in sports history, hands down.
Amazing how the NFL hates the Giants. Let's Go Big Blue!!!
STOP. I'm a fking Raiders fan... You still wanna cry about that to me? Try being the most flagged team in the league for 10 yrs straight.
@@maplebear6527 you guys beat the chiefs
@@maplebear6527 our season was just flat out depressing
I'm so glad someone made a video of this. I remember this playoff run in detail seven years ago. If you were a Giants fan you knew they were going to take it all the way the second they made it to the playoffs. The Giants started the season 0-2 then picked up six straight wins. What's even greater is that they beat the undefeated patriots when it was all on the line. It taught me to always be resilient. This year changed my life. The 2007-2008 Giants will always be my heroes. Giants for life.
***** nah it was 6 straight look up the 07 schedule
bruh and as a cowboys fan it taught me that no matter how great things are going there is still room for disappointment, that 07 season will always be the time romo actually had a chance
@@Grimreepa220 he said it was 6 straight. You misread. He said he remembers this playoff run 7 years ago in full detail then mentioned 6 straight wins after starting 0-2. The 0-2 was against Dallas and Green Bay and they gave up a combined 80 points in those 2 games. Got revenge on all 3 of the same teams in the playoffs after beating the bucs. Dallas, Green Bay, then the Patriots. Ill never forget that season. 11 was amazing too but this will never be topped.
Never get tired of watching this. My Father died on 12/28/2007, he would he would've been so thrilled to see them win that Super Bowl. I loved how Strahan look Terry right in the eyes.
I’m terribly sorry that you didn’t get to watch it with him, I’m sure he was watching down at the game! 👍
I remember every moment of this.
And they did it again four years later
I'm a cowboys fan but I'll never hate the Giants I have a lot of respect for them. I do hate the Eagles though >:)
Amen
yes really and thats understandable because everyone hates them for whatever reason i guess youre just like everyonelse
+Hugh Jass The way it was told to me- I'm not old enough to remember the barren '70s Giants- the Giants and their fans didn't hold quite the contempt for the Cowboys as the other NFC teams because Tom Landry took care not to further embarrass the Giants in those days. Those only old enough to know the Jerry Jones Cowboys wouldn't understand.
Personally, the first game I ever saw was between the Cowboys and Giants. It was so good that, not yet understanding the dynamics, I considered them my favorite teams. When Montana and the 49ers knocked them out of the playoffs on consecutive weeks, the 49ers were cemented as, and remain, my most hated team.
By the 90s, I'd long since dropped the Cowboys but, as someone had to beat the 49ers, politics made for strange bedfellows.
+Hi Mom Agreed. Above all else, every year the eagles don't win the Super Bowl is a great year.

The New York Giants: a team known for stealing Super Bowls from underneath your nose.
So true....both times against the pats and against buffalo too.....we were def smashing denver though lol

I'm not a NYG fan, but I remember watching them play towards the end of their regular season and through the playoffs. They looked good and beat many teams that they shouldn't have. One of the greatest Super Bowl upsets ever, too. I still remember how everyone was already crowning the Patriots as champions even before playing the Super Bowl. Almost nobody gave the 2007 NY Giants a chance to win the game.
Watching Jerry Jones being disappointed warranted a "like" for that alone.
Giants always the underdogs, will beat the packers this week!
Master of Luck That didn't workout for us 😬

This aged well..... coming from a giants fan 😂😂
easily coulda won that game tho
Meh, we're gonna win a Super Bowl within the next 5 years, all hail our Lord and Savior, Saquon of the Barkley family, this comment will age well.
Giants have won a Super Bowl the last 4 decades. 1986,1990, 2007, 2011. Hopefully they'll get things turned around soon though and get another ring before this decade ends.
2011 is this decade.
I know, I was saying that I hope we dont have to wait until the next decade for them to win another.
theone2225 only 2 more seasons
This shows that with proper offense and defense leadership and everyone synced in, anything is possible for these guys! Strahan was one hell of a leader, they need that again! Go Giants!
That was the most exciting playoff run and my favorite all time SB until my Hawks won. Still the Manning SBs were almost equal in joy for me. Practice starts tomorrow for the 2023 season getting psyched.
Thank you for the memories, Eli! Wish him the best of luck in retirement.
I watch this at least once a year and still wonder why they had the nerve to let Jason witten predict a score

The giants are one the worst teams in the past 15 years.
john john two super bowls and we are one of the worst teams ok then
Angelina Justin If they were truly a consistent good team for the past 15 years than if you took out 2 of their best seasons they would still look good. However they look like a completely average team. Eli manning a regular season record is 108-91 that's 54% win. They are average. Even if you look at there playoff record,(8-4) it isn't very good. Considering that out of the 6 playoff seasons they have had since manning. In only 2 of them did they even win a game.
It’s 2022 and I’m still watching this
i love when strahan was looking at bradshaw directly in the eyes when he said, "I remember hearing someone say the giants have a false sense of confidence, NO we have confidence" they shut the the world up that night, one of the best nights of my life.

@@NerdOutWithMe it actually turned out we didn’t but we do now.

*The Super Bowl win after the 2007 season wasn't the Giants 3rd World Championship. It was their 7th (and they now have 8 world titles as of 2020 after the 2011 season). Prior to 2007, along with the Super Bowl wins after the 1986 and 1990 seasons, they won the NFL Title in 1927, 1934, 1938, and 1956. Those championships before the Super Bowl era still count.*
What they did will never be forgotten. They won 4 road playoff games and beat an undefeated team. But the best part of this video was Terrell Owens crying...puts me on the ground every time.
I never got why people were thinking that the Pats were going to win comfortably. The Pats looked mortal, if anything, during the AFC playoffs. Both their playoff games against the Jags and Chargers were not decided until the 4th quarter with the Pats 1 mistake away from losing either game.
Experts?? The Giants have absolutely no chance. When you go to Green Bay you play the history. You know the Giants were dogs in all these games. And people picking against them is understandable. But some of the reasons. The other thing is that the Pats were not looking as dominant as they were earlier in the season. The AFC chanpionship against San Diego were LT was severely limited and Rivers was nicked up. SD got inside the 10 three times and settled for field goals. If Tomlinson was healthy would they have gotten in once? Maybe twice? All 3 times? My point is the Pats could have lost that game but for SD injuries. And SD even healthy, I would rate the Cowboys and Packers at least as good or better than SD. And the Giants beat both of them on the road. The signs were there that it would be closer than the spread of 12.5 points.
I was the only kid from my hs that picked the giants before the playoffs started. All based on that regular season game.
I’m a Washington fan but I still thank the giants for this service to the NFL world by depriving the patriots of 2 rings. And the perfect season
Buccaneers fan here on 1/22/ 2021 watching this for inspiration on our wildcard run as everybody picks against us.
I am a very long long time New York Giant football fan and super bowl 42 was one of the absolute greatest super bowls ever and the best part about that whole game is after it was done not only are New York Giants world champions but the Giants team and all New York Giants fans throughout the world and one voice get to say perfection denied
