The defense still scares me. But this was just an incredible victory.Silenoz wrote:That offense is looking unstoppable at this point

they shoulda put their fastest guy on the field.. give him the ball and tell him to run in circles for 14 secondsBlueHen86 wrote:That was one of the most epic collapses that I have witnessed. After the TD to make it 31-17 you have to be thinking about an onside kick, yet the Giants seemed to be caught completely offguard. Punting to Jackson with 14 seconds left was not too bright either.

Or punt the ball out of bounds. The Eagles would have had time for one Hail Mary play. I'd rather defend a Hail Mary pass than have to defend against a Jackson punt return.UNHWildCats wrote:they shoulda put their fastest guy on the field.. give him the ball and tell him to run in circles for 14 secondsBlueHen86 wrote:That was one of the most epic collapses that I have witnessed.

If I was Coughlin I'd fire the special teams coach. Were totally unprepared for the onsides kick, then instead of having his punt kick it out of bounds he kicks a low line drive...BlueHen86 wrote:Or punt the ball out of bounds.

He wasn't necessarily showing off there, even though that is his M.O. There were 14 secs on the clock when the play started. He was trying to bleed off any remaining time. Smart play actually.UNHWildCats wrote:I just saw the Jackson return and I gotta say....

It doesn't mean he knew that. I think he was sort of busy at the time.UNHWildCats wrote:He was still at the 22 when the clock expired.93henfan wrote:

Except for the part where he waved the ball around in the air. He is a great player, but he is also a stupid hot dog. His premature TD celebrations have resulted in fumbles at the high school and NFL level. He won't learn. Nothing good can come from his showboating, but bad stuff can and has happened.93henfan wrote:He wasn't necessarily showing off there, even though that is his M.O.
