The Patriots started their drive with 2:21 left in the game. Except they lost because the Eagles defense forced a fumble that put the game out of reach.

yeah 2:21 still a big difference with 3:36...plus giants had 3 timeouts..., i beleive the patriots in this years SB only had 1...so thats a HUGE difference..
also the patriot defense in that giant SB game you are referencing didnt give up 500 yard and 33 points to put them in the 'pressure' situations..,
you dont get credit for getting a 'stop' when you are the one that put yourself in that situation plus 1 timeout 2:21 left in the game full length of the field gives the Defense an advantage..... 3:36 left and 3 timeouts for the offense doesnt give any advantage to the defense.
