With all honesty, the New England Patriots have little-to-no business appearing in this year's Super Bowl.

Sure, they had a phenomenal regular season, posting a 13-3 record.

But in the conference championship, the team struggled mightily.

Tom Brady threw for just 239 yards, to go along with two interceptions – making for a dismal 57.5 quarterback rating. And the defense gave up more than 400 yards.

But the Patriots escaped with the win after Baltimore Ravens kicker Billy Cundiff choked and missed a 32-yard chip shot of a field goal with 11 seconds left.

In Sunday's Super Bowl, the Patriots are taking on the New York Giants, who spoiled what would have been a 19-0 season for New England in 2008 when the G-Men upset the Pats in the big game.

So, how confident are you that the Patriots will capture their fourth Super Bowl in the last decade on Sunday? Let us know in the poll above!
