Giants put first Super Bowl non-story story to bed

M. Kiwanuka

NFL players are always looking for a motivational edge. They are prone to manufacturing disrespect from opponents or the media even when it really doesn’t exist.

And yet the Giants still didn’t bite when presented with Tom Brady’s words from Sunday’s rally at Gillete Stadium.

We wrote that Brady’s words were completely innocuous on Sunday, and the Giants agreed with the sentiment. Mathias Kiwanuka said it wasn’t “legitimate” trash talk.

“It was just a pep rally,” defensive lineman Justin Tuck said via the New York Daily News.

Thank you, Justin.
