When the New York Giants stunned the undefeated New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII, it was one of the greatest upsets in sports history. The Giants entered as double-digit underdogs and beat one of the greatest teams the sport has ever seen.
It’s well documented that the Super Bowl losses still haunt NFL legend Tom Brady to this day. In fact, on multiple occasions, Brady has admitted he would trade two of his Super Bowl rings for the win in Super Bowl XLII.
What may surprise some is that as much as the seven-time Super Bowl champ hates the memories of those losses, he has nothing but respect for his opponents.
