When is the Super Bowl 2012? The climax of the NFL is just few days away and the winner will be known. New York Giants vs New England Patriots Super Bowl 46 can be the most anticipated Super Bowl ever because there are so many things at stake in this game.

Most of the news in the past 10 days concerns on the status of tight end Rob Gronkowski of the New England Patriots. With 90 receptions in the regular season, it will be a huge void for the Patriots to fill in if he will not be playing or if he is just only 50 percent healthy. However, the Patriots side is always ready to make the adjustment yet it will be difficult to make it explosive.

Another interesting story is Eli Manning elevation as one of the best quarterbacks if he will win another Super Bowl. Two super bowl wins will bring him in the conversation as better than Aaron Rodgers and Drew Brees. Manning has been a great passer this season and that he will make himself in the record book having won two super bowls.

Tom Brady will be the greatest quarterback ever? This is an arguable statement but winning four super bowls will tie Joe Montana and Terry Bradshaw. He will tie John Elway with five super bowl appearances and he will be over Montana in the most playoffs victories.

Super Bowl 2012 date is on February 5, 2012 at the Lucas Stadium, Indianapolis, Indiana. Super Bowl 2012 start time is at 6:30 PM ET. The tv coverage is on NBC.

Let’s look at the Vegas oddsmakers on how the Super Bowl 2012 odds, spread, and line is fluctuating. It started with -3.5 for for the New England Patriots but the Super Bowl odds is playing around -3.5 and -2.5 because of the condition of Gronkowski. Surely, the biggest factor in the fluctuation will be Gronkowski’s inability to make practices for the Patriots.

The Super Bowl over under is set at 55. This surely shows us that the Patriots and Giants will score at least three touchdowns each. The oddsmakers are not looking at the defense this time but how these two teams will be scoring in high fashions.

Why the Patriots are favored?

Four years ago in the Super Bowl 2008, the Patriots were 14 points favorites because they won 18 consecutive games and they beat the Giants at the end of the season. However, this season the regular season went on to the Giants winning against the Patriots. Nobody expected the Giants to be in Super Bowl while the Patriots have been in the top 10 of the NFL power rankings in all the 16 weeks. Also, the record of the Patriots factor in as they already accumulated 15 wins.

But we all know that the odds has nothing to do about the game itself. The odds cannot dictate how the Giants and Patriots will play. Super Bowl 2012 will absolutely be exciting as ever. As for the Super Bowl predictions, the New England Patriots will win.
