Does anyone really fear the Giants?

It is about respect not fear, no cowards on the field in the NFL. When asked what he thought about only scoring 17 points in the Superbowl, Tom Brady chuckled, "only 17 points". That my friends showed lack of respect and arrogance, cost them the game.  Bellichick let that team get too wrapped up in the perfect season. Not saying he did not try to lay down the law but somewhere between the AFC Championship and Feb. 3, the hype got to them, then Michael Strahan and Jason Tuck finished the job.

Nobody talks much about going for it on 4th and 13 instead of trying a FG anymore, but they lost by 3 points. Again Bellichick got caught up the hype, predicated on previous success durring the season, instead of sound reasoning at the time of impact.  

Are the Giants a good team? Sure they are. I'm still not sold completely on Eli Manning but he does seem to have finally gotten a hold of the NFL game.

But I certainly wouldn't fear them as a Bears fan since they played them pretty competitively last year. Especially if Michael Strahan retires.

I do like Kenny Phillips though. He's my pick to be Defensive Rookie of the Year.

Fear no respect yes; hey they did theri thing in the playoffs.
