End of Third, 21-17 Bills

December

Absolutely horrendous call to have Manning throw on the first play of the second half, especially since it resulted in an interception and eventual go-ahead touchdown for the Bills. Still, they had a chance to get the lead back when Ahmad Bradshaw, running after Jacobs sprained his ankle, came down with his knee at the half-yard line. But four shots from there couldn’t get the ball in.

Giants are driving, though, with Jacobs banging the middle as they should have done in the first place. Now they’ve got the wind on their side.

Any suggestions on the playcalling on that failed drive?

See ya after the game.

Ciao for now.

who knows how they did it but they got the WIN.. Bradshaw came up huge.. They made it is, give them some credit;; not a bad draft; ross, bradshaw, boss, smith, alford, and others…

BTW that is the first play in 3 yrs that Webster made..

he has been a huge bust but that is is first big play..

Kavika Mithcell also has come up bigealry in the season he looked lost but he has played great latley, another huge pickup at a very low cost…..

i had a flashback when watching the game today…did bradshaws run remind anyone of a young rodney hampton make that run in the preseason of 91? His explosiveness should be utilized, I think he can be a player.

Play-action pass to the tight end when a team is inside the two yard line works almost every time. I don’t understand why the Giants don’t use it more often.

Their short-yardage plays are totally unoriginal and ineffective. It is shocking that this late in the year the offense coach has not done a decent job in this critical area.

Hmmmm…Where is all the criticism of the horrible
Giants QB, who seems destined to be Dave Brown
or Joe Pisarcik. Eli ain’t getting it done guys.
And the time for excuses for him is over.

Even in good weather he misses receivers by
a mile. Even in good weather he fumbles too
much. Great games by Toomer, and Bradshaw and
Jacobs. Defense woke up, finally.

Smith dropped a sure TD today, and Toomer
caught a beauty. But Eli threw only three
times in the second half. Two were intercepted.
