If the Giants ran that interception back on that fake FG (or whatever you want to call that), I think there was about a 70% chance that Jim Zorn would have been the first NFL coach fired at halftime. As of now there probably a 20% after that first half that the Skins didn't show up for.

zorn isn't calling the plays, remember? he's as useful right now as tits on a boar. i can't wait for this season to end...

I pegged this game to be a much closer affair. This game is borderline unwatchable. Zorn's mouth only opens when the puppet master pulls on the strings.

I would think that the head coach would have final say on whether to kick a FG or try an abomination of play like the one that was called.

This is brutal.....the Giants might put up 65 if the Skins decide to do something other than run the ball the rest of the way.

i doubt it. zorn is only marking time and cashing checks til the last two games are played. the only reason he hasn't been canned yet is snyder likes him. but he's a figurehead at this point.

If that game didn't smell of a draft position lay down, I don't know what does. They let Eli drive it down the field successively on the first two drives without calling a single blitz?

And then, when there is just a little bit of a spark, you call that stupid trick play right before half. A coach would only call that dumb play if:

A. He was instructed to lay down and not let the team have any chance.
B. He was screwing around and did it out of spite.

Rivers was the better draft pick, that much is for sure.

Rivers has a SB ring?

Too close to call. I'm sure both teams are happy with the QB's that they have. But right now Eli is the only one with the hardware, but you get the feeling that Rivers day is coming. The guys a gamer.
