Peter King: Wrapping up with thoughts on Super Bowl XLVI; mail
Five thoughts in the wake of the 46th Super Bowl:

Peter King: Manning's throw, Manningham's catch the stuff of legends
INDIANAPOLIS -- I still can't get over that throw from Eli Manning to Mario Manningham. As much as I respect the catch (it will be the greatest of Manningham's career, no matter how long he plays), I am in awe of the throw. How did Manning make that throw? Why make that throw? Why did he pick the target of the guy with a corner in coverage and a safety flying over to crush Manningham? The 38-yard throw -- which began an 88-yard, Super Bowl-winning touchdown drive that Bill Belichick will see in his nightmares -- is just one more reason to never, ever question how good Eli Manning is. He will have some crappy games the rest of his career, because two or three times a year he stinks. But I ask you: What quarterback alive do you want with the ball in his hands in the last two minutes of a big game?

Peter King: Patriots' Light must hold up against Giants' fierce pass-rushers
INDIANAPOLIS -- This city's outdone itself. It's been a great game site for the Super Bowl. So much to do downtown, all on foot, and the natives and even the drunks are in great moods. The meteorologists have helped, but there's something to be said for a vibrant downtown hosting everything at a Super Bowl, and holding the Super Bowl in a place where you never have to get in a car.

INDIANAPOLIS -- Many around the Giants never thought they'd see the sight they've seen the last month: Osi Umenyiora smiling, happy and, relatively speaking, content.

INDIANAPOLIS -- And now for something completely different: The Oakland Raiders are changing the way they do business in a big way with Dennis Allen.
