Giants vs Pats (Ravens related)

**dscola31** · 11-07-2011, 07:09 PM

Before I begin, let me say that the Giants Pats game was awesome. Congrats to the Giants for breking the Pats Home winning streak (regular season

)

BUT the Pats d is atrocious! We went 92 yards on the best pass d in the league and needed a TD to win. The Giants only needed a FG to continue playing.

So why are we not getting more press? I'm not 1 of those "The league hates u!" guys, but if this was any other team, we would have been top story.

Just sayin'.

The new york/boston media markets is the reason. Espn loves ballwashing anything new york and/or boston

You are absolutely right and I completely missed that. Espn and NFL network bleeds for these teams.

In a way the lack of coverage can be seen as a compliment. The Ravens beating the Steelers isn't seen as a big surprise while the Giants beating the Patriots defies expectation and shakes things up. At least that's how I choose to spin it :)

Exactly ehat I was getting at. Good points.

I thought both games got pretty equal coverage on Sirius Xm.

Hopefully they'll get equal coverage tonight on the "shared" replay.

I, for one, do not want the Ravens to get a lot of hype during the season. Every time the media hypes them up they seem to lay a turd like the Jags game. The only thing that matters is wining the Super Bowl. So, I say let the media ignore the Ravens, and have the Ravens keep winning while flying under the radar.

One reason is because Brady hadn't lost a 'regular season' game at home in 400 years or something... ;)

Glad that stupid stat is dead.

Another reason is the Pats have lost two in a row. End of a dynasty ... that's what PFT said
