The New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI by a score of 21 to 17.  Giants quarterback Eli Manning completed 30 of 40 passes for 296 yards, threw one touchdown and was named as the game’s Most Valuable Player for the second time in his career.  Patriots quarterback Tom Brady completed 27 of 41 passes for 276 yards, two touchdowns and one interception. The Giants came in with a regular-season record of 9-7 and were seen as the underdog against the 13-3 Patriots. Super Bowl XLVI marks the fourth title for the Giants and their second in a span of four years. They also become the fifth team in the history of the National Football League to win at least four Super Bowls. At age 65, Tom Coughlin is the oldest head coach to win a Super Bowl in NFL history.
