i don't get it , you have eli manning and a chance to go up 2 poessions on 4th down you kick a field goal to go up 6 and leave them 2 minutes to beat you which is too much time in the nfl with rivers and co
go for it on 4th and if you don't make it , they are on the 4 yrd line and have to still go 70 yrds to get into fg range to tie you , don't play to lose play to win and TC didn't do that yesterday (was phil simms wrong too)
how does the ball not go into the end zone one time in that situation in the last drive , simply terrible play calling and that goes back to the HC
now my other issue is on the 1st drive of the game - again play to win
you are on a 3 game skid and reeling
you get the ball for the opening drive , you start at your own 11 , you have a good amount of success running the football in that drive - you have the ball for close to 7:00 minutes here in the 1st qtr - you have a 4th and 1 on the sd 21 - why not go for it and fire the crowd up ???? jacobs can't get a yard to keep the drive going ....no you settle for a fg attempt that gets botched! again you have the highest paid qb in the league and a monster back in BJ against a weak run defense - go for the 1st down and set the tone in the game

Maybe the highest paid, but definitely not the worth it.
WR's are small and can't create seperation. All you got is TE Kevin Boss to out-jump the secondary. 3 small WR's 1 TE and 1 RB versus 7 in the backfield. I'll take the 5-6 linemen and 1 RB against 4 anyday.
I'll agree on the 4th and 1 early, but thats me.
But we have the miss tackle on Sproles. the injury TO on Tuck, who I'm finding out was wanting to get back into the game. AND!!!! Webster allowing Jackson to go outside when he should of made him go inside for the double-team. Sorry but your defense was only on the field for a 1/3 of the game and they held SD to 140 yds of total offense.
Heck I've been harping on the Giants not giving Jacobs the ball, but the Giants still had the lead, and the defense did nothing to stop it.
