Not sure if or why it was not done before. Then one might ask why stop at 12? How about 13, 14 or 20? As long it is not the last play of the game you really have nothing to lose.

lol it can't be the last play of the game because the game can't end on a defensive penalty. Either way I guess they don't want it to be too obvious?

Didn't I say that?  ;D
The obvious reason would be my guess also.

It has been done before Buddy Ryan sent out 15 guys on a play with around 10 seconds left in a game

As a side note I streamed the game from nbcsports.com and it was poor quality in addition to the fact that they played the SAME 3 commercials at every break. Thank goodness I switched to an illegal stream for the last quarter and got to watch the last minutes in high quality streaming.

I had HD quality for the entire first quarter, but then switched because of what jj1000 pointed out about no commercials...

And when I switched I kept asking myself: "This is what companies have decided to spend millions of $$ on?" Bring back the Budweiser toads.

Bradshaw, wasn't planning on going in, he anticipated being hit at the line and his forward momentum (due to not being hit) pushed him in. Mistake on the Giants part to not simply take a knee at that point. Bigger mistake on the Pats for not allowing them to score right after they got into chip-in range with about 2 min left. Would have given Brady enough time to attempt a successful drive. I could not believe Belicheck wasted a TO on that challenge (that happened literally in front of his face.) Terrible game, worst SB I've watched in years. Dropped (uncontested) passes, poor time management/TO usage. Few successful drives, too many sloppy plays all-around.

On the food note: My BIL had sweet chicken wings, spicy poppers, real southern chili (all home-made) with fresh bread and the usual mix of chips dips and drinks.

On the "rivalry" note: My BIL is a native NY/NJ and huge Jets fan, he lol'ed when I mentioned the idea floating around here of a Jets-Giants rivalry.
