yes

you have the highest paid qb in the league , now after the penalty it's 1 and goal at the 14.....not 1 of the next 3 play calls goes into the end zone
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

Don't disgree about going for it on 4th down in the first quarter (but it's an easy second guess now because they came away with no points) and I agree about them having to let Eli throw the ball and try to get a touchdown on downs 1-3. But I don't know how you can say with a straight face that they should go for it from the 10 on 4th and goal up by only 3. That's absolutely ridiculous. Maybe just mabye if they are inside the 2, I could entertain the thought (but I'm pretty sure Coughlin would have kicked the FG from where ever they were). Make the Bolts score a TD and thats what they ended up doing. Tip your hat, they made the plays and the Giants didn't. Period.

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.

The giants should have gone for it on 4th and goal from the ten...up by 3 with two minutes left and the other team possessing a time out?

Seriously...this is another level of retarded.

1st off it was at the 4 not the 10 so you are already wrong

playing for a fg really worked ****** right , i mean going up 6 they won the game right moron?

what about the play call in the 1st qtr , you run it down there throats for 7 minutes and then you try to kick a fg , jacobs can't get you a yd on the sd 23 in the 1st qtr to keep a drive going and try to score a td to get some early mojo off a 3 game skid- totally clueless
