Tom Brady had one of his trademark brilliant fourth-quarter comebacks—but three minutes later, Eli Manning did, too, and the Giants shocked the formerly perfect Patriots, 17-14.

The remaining time turned out to be plenty for the Giants to achieve one of the greatest upsets in Super Bowl history. (More NFL stories.)
