Do you know who is really happy about this Pats/Giants game tonight? Answer: The Tampa Bay Bucs. The Giants spent so much energy and ego on THIS game, that I bet they won't have much in the tank when they have to face Tampa in the first round.

It's possible it might pump them up. Psychologically they know they were with in a play or two of beating the best team in the NFL.

No, this is a confidence boost for the giants.
I personally think its a mistake to keep resting starting players like gruden has done.
If the giants can play like they did the pats, there should be no problem taking on the bucs

It's possible that the Giants lost 2 starters and a backup because of knee injuries. If the Giants play like this next game, the Giants will win.

dude, you have to give the Giants Credit, the had the Pats running for their money. People said they would have won by a huge margin and it was only a 3 pt game. The Giants looked Great. And this game is only motivation for them..

well since they almost beat "the best team in the NFL"(i do not believe that they're the best just luckiest) but anyway since they beat them they will be more pumped up than ever...i know that 2 years ago my football team beat the first ranked team in the playoffs that pumped us up SO much we were ranked last and won states. so since they almost beat them that will pump them up and they will go far into the playoffs to get beat by the cowboys haha hate to admit that but the cowboys and the colts or steelers will be in the super bowl the pats will get beat i guarantee...take out randy moss and they are NOTHING their running game is bad its only good when their passing is firring on all cylinders

4 players left the game because of injuries.
they will need more than 1 week to prepare for Tampa.
i know they can play and i know they can come out flat.
i just don't know what team will show up against Tampa
i am hoping the same team that was beaten by Minnesota

I think this is a huge confidence boost. Yeah, they lost, but they showed they can play with the best..
I actually give them a chance now against the Bucs.

I hope it motivates them becuase they know that they could have won, if not for the late game mistakes. But you know that was also true for the Eagles and the Ravens. The Eagles chose ot use that experience to motivate them and went on the beat Dallas on the road. While the Ravens chose to whine about it and fell deeper in the hole.
