Giants Emulating Past Championship Teams in 2025 originally appeared on Athlon Sports.

When the New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots in Super Bowl XLII and XLVI, they used a specific formula to pull off each upset.

It's the same formula the 2025 team hopes to use this season.

In 2007 and 2011, the Giants were not considered a true Super Bowl contender during the regular season. Quarterback Eli Manning was a solid starter but was very inconsistent, and their pass defense left much to be desired as well.
