*3 Star Super Bowl XLVI ATS CASH* By now you've definitely heard that this is a rematch of Super Bowl 42. The Giants ruined the Patriots perfect season in that one. Some are playing the revenge angle in this one, but I don't buy it. Of course the Patriots want to win this game badly, but it is the Super Bowl and the Giants want it badly too! I think both teams come out highly motivated in a game like this. The Giants pass rush should force the Patriots into throwing more quick passes, but that also makes the offense more predictable. New England has been able to outscore teams this year, but their defense simply isn't good at all. The secondary should get chewed apart by a very underrated group of wide receivers form New York. Victor Cruz and Hakeem Nicks are ready for a big game on the big stage here. The Giants secondary isn't good, but I do think they are better than the Patriots secondary. They'll also get more help from the pass rush. Eli Manning has been stepping up in a big way in big games. I think the value here is on the Giants. The Giants are 8-0 ATS in their last 8 as a playoff underdog. Take the Giants.
