  • History hovers over Sunday's big Giants-Patriots matchup

    The New York Giants have won three straight, including two Super Bowls, against the New England Patriots. Will the 8-0 Pats get revenge, or be disappointed again?

    The New York Giants have beaten the New England Patriots three times in a row. Two of those games were Super Bowls. They haven't squared off in four years and have very few remaining players from the Super Bowl teams. The current Patriots are a pristine 8-0 and the current Giants are a gritty 5-4. But the facts of the present can take a back seat when a matchup rings with NFL history, as this one does.

    Will Tom Coughlin, 5-1 all-time against the great Bill Belichick, be able to summon the ghosts of Giants triumphs past and put the first blemish on New England's latest effort at an unbeaten season? Will Tom Brady even notice a Giants defense that's giving up a league-worst 422.8 yards per game? NFL Nation reporters Dan Graziano and Mike Reiss take a look.
