The Patriots still have 35 seconds and all three timeouts and all they need is field goal. This is hardly over but we might get the first ever Superbowl OT.

It’s official now: Eli Manning is now a real-live man, on equal footing with his bro and father. (He can, like, go ahead and lose his virginity now and everything. Just kidding.)
