Well, in two weeks, the New England Patriots will be involved in either one of the biggest revenge stories in NFL history, or one of the biggest nightmares.
With the New York Giants defeating the San Francisco 49ers in overtime in the NFC Championship, it established Super Bowl XLVI as a rematch of the Super Bowl four years ago, when the 18-0 New England Patriots were upset by the underdog New York Giants.
The Patriots and the Giants will face off at 6:25 PM on February 5th, 2012 at Lucas Oil Stadium in Indianapolis.
