They did that because the Giants were calling time outs at that time like they were going to make a come back. The Packers then heaved it down field to basically put a dagger in the heart. If we are going to call time outs down 3 TDs with 4 minutes to go, they have every right to throw a bomb and put the game away.

Too bad the opening in his facemask wasn't a little wider or the ball would have stuck in it. That was a perfect strike by Eli. Even though I think Jacobs should get 2 yards when he needs 1, I still think that was a horrible spot by the ref. It definitely looked like he had the ball at the marker before any part of his body hit the ground. TC won't ever challenge those again though because you never win a challenge like that.

No problem. You don't seem to acknowledge his good games, so I thought I would point it out to you. He got a new holder, and had a good day. How could I possibly guarantee anything? That is just a silly thing to even say.

Tynes was excellent today. Drilled every FG chance he got and put every kick off on the 5. Tyree isn't even playing football any more!!!!!!!!!!!

The main credit I give to Eli is how well the 2 minute offense runs. I assume Eli is calling the plays and running the show in that situation.

x 5.

He had 9 grabs for 103 yards today. He's just so unassuming that you don't recognize when he is putting up numbers.

Don't blame him at all. ESPN shouldn't be trotting him out there for a 5 hour draft special and sit him right in the middle of the pannel. If they wanna hire him - great, just limit him a little. That guy is not cut out for events like last night.

Steve Young was horrid. He was making uncomfortable statements followed by uncomfortable pauses and kept talking over Berman when he needed to thow it to commercial or an interview. That guy sucks. Did you see Gruden look over at Mel and roll his eyes when Young was saying that Favre proved what he wanted to prove (by not winning a super bowl).

Reading these comments I'm having flashbacks to the Kiwi draft. WHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAA?!?! Rabble rabble rabble rabble rabble. We need an inside linebacker. Whitherspoon is a fine pick, but most of the LBs on the team are outside linebackers.

When does the receiving team only win about 40% of the time? I like the rule change. Teams definately play for FGs in OT. It's much more exciting when teams are taking shots in the endzone and this rule change would make that happen. There is no reward for a TD in OT right now. I just wish they would do it for the regular season also. Baby steps I guess.

Isn't this pretty much the rule change they are voting on? If a TD is scored the game is over. If the first team kicks a FG, they have to kick off. If the second team scores a TD, game over. If it's a FG the OT reverts to sudden death. That's the way I understand it.

Rediculous.

Yes players do play, and this team had a lot of injuries. You can't deny that bad DCs make the players on the field look bad. This defense needs upgrades in the LBs and safeties, but a good DC would be able to cover some deficiencies in personnel with the scheme and Sheridan certainly does not do that. If they bring in a high energy guy, like Fox and Spags were, this D will instantly get better. Everyone got that Tim Lewis feeling once BS said he wanted to sit in the booth during the games, and he definately did his best impression of him.

The same basic D personnel that Tim Lewis shit the bed with Spags won a Superbowl with and the same basic D personnel that Spags took to the playoffs with some big injuries, Sheridan allowed 4 or 5 40+ point games with. Bad DCs and players not playing well go hand in hand.
