Kelly the Dog Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 The game was lost a dozen ways but the decision to pass on 1st with 2:06 left is the worst. That's something you can totally control and it's a no brainer to run. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattM Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 1. Thats not a catch. 2. You fail to mention the terrible holding call on Andrews the play before when Blount scored. The giants lost this game because they failed miserably with clock management on that final offensive series inside the 5. One run takes you 2 minute warning. Another eats 5-6 seconds. A third eats 45 seconds. New England needed every second and the giants gifted them at least 30 seconds with their playcalling. As for 1, that's not what the official on the field called. As for 2, way to deflect--that may have been the worst call I've ever seen. And how is it that neither announcer says jack **** about it on the obvious replay?

Would have had the same outcome but taken more time off the clock. You might even get lucky and punch it in with one of those runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reed83HOF Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 No, you only have to blitz until he's carted off the field. And then we will usher in the Garrappolo era; which will obviously torment us even worse... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Tom Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 To be fair most here seemed to agree with the call. Why do you even watch them play? For me, it's not even a question of agreeing or disagreeing with the call. It's that the league can't give a single consistent explanation of what is and is not a friggin' touchdown. There are four or five different TD plays I could compare and contrast over the past three years and demonstrate how woefully inconsistent the league's definition of "touchdown" is.

Beerball Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Anyone unsure of corrupt officiating in the League needs to look no further than this game. Exhibit A--call of hands to the face on the Giants on a key drive close to the goal line when the replay clearly showed a hands to the face by the Cheats* center (uncalled of course) and yet Nantz and Simms say nothing; and exhibit B--Beckham catches a TD gets two feet down including a step with the ball and the call on the field is overturned (CBS's Mike Carey agrees, of course). Utter BS You have a point with A especially when they can't identify the player. B was not a catch by NFL standards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbb Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 What was Mike Carey's explanation for why it wasn't a catch? He said the strip happened simultaneously with the 2nd foot going down. That is not true. The 2nd foot was down first..............Hohuli said that he had not "turned into a runner." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattM Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 (edited) It's not deflecting. You're cherry picking. So can I.I'm pointing out two egregiously bad calls late in the game that went the Cheats*' way. You then bring up an unrelated supposed pro-Giant no-call. I'd say that's the definition of deflecting. What's your view on the hands to the face call and the fact that the announcers can watch that replay AND SAY NOTHING ABOUT IT?

LB3 Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 We aren't as good as the Giants, so I'm not sure showing us the way will matter. You're right. We're better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What you can't assume is that was the where the flag was thrown. It was probably someone outside of the frame. We will never know because they didn't give us a number. Also...deep breaths.
