    Giants have to be the luckiest team in history.

    Horseshit, that never gets overturned in a Jets game.

    obviously it's instinct to try and break your fall

    if he could've just fallen down and held on, it would've been a hard impact, but a touchdown

    just crazy because of how close and where he touched.

    also crazy that the giants secondary played so poorly again, in a situation where they had to stop the deep ball

    Romo waived Dez off the field. Dez wanted to be out there even though he was limping. Wonder why

    Yeah landed right on his elbow or shoulder. Such a crazy play.

    Giants call a TO wanting to discuss last play. How do you get burnt on a double move when you know they need a TD and how do you get such a break that his fingers land out

    Dez back on field for final play. If Miles caught that, he would probably be stopped short and game over

    even at the last play they had a double team on a receiver on the LOS :lol:

    hey Giants, this is not complicated. What the hell are you doing?

    I've never seen a team in any sport that gets so many random breaks like the Giants do.

    I was rooting for the giants the whole game but after that play I realize again how lucky they always are. Seems every game they get the biggest breaks in the nfl. You can count ONE huge break every game of last year that would have lost them the game but the other team shoots themselves in the foot when it matters the most.

    that sproles/brown yardage comparison NBC put up is pretty stupid.

    There's a big difference between yards from scrimmage and total yards.

    Anyone returning a lot of kicks and punts will pile up a lot of yardage. It's a lot harder to get yards from scrimmage.

    Sproles has been a very good player, but let's not be silly. He has nothing on Jim Brown.

    if you're looking at tonight, I'd say man the Chargers screwed up letting Brees go! But yeah, Sproles too.

    Eh, Brees was iffy because of that bad injury, it was Miami that fucked up the Brees part far more than San Diego

    Rivers is badly weighed down by Norv Turner

    The Bolts were never the same after they let him go.

    well if we're looking at outcomes...

    given that they had drafted rivers, I'd say it was the right decision to let brees leave, but the outcome wasn't good

    These two QBs are always so much fun to watch. Brees is fun to watch him crane his neck over the offensive line and just unleash a rifle

    How was that a random break? It was a close play but they made the right call. The refs messed up the spot on the Bradshaw run, game would've been over.
