NoFistsJustFlips Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 The only logical explanation for The Giants' first 6 quarters of football this year is they somehow crossed paths with a demon ghoul that put a 6 quarter curse on them. From literally not being able to get any points / first downs / more than three seconds in the pocket to throw to... like a really good and efficient offense. I don't know what was said in that halftime speech, but load that shit up on the loud speakers and play it between every play. Saquon getting a sprained ankle or fracture in essentially garbage time is depressing. But only ut haf as depressing as that Thursday Night Massacre is gonna be. 1-1 and is lone last place in the division. Football givith and football takith away.

BloodyChamp Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 I’ve seen batted HMs backfire too. I don’t know what the answer is. I would probably just do or coach to do whatever came natural. Catch it if you think you got it, otherwise jump and swing like all hell. The conversion try was PI but Bountygate so I don’t want to hear it out of that crybaby’s mouth. Besides that though, it was only the call by rule, the rule which is made of glass at this point. I was just glad to see a clutch moment in a game not decided by a penalty that helped the offense. Also I’m not sure the pass before the HM was a catch but they gave it to them without even checking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BloodyChamp Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 Bill O’Brien is an idiot. It was 3rd and inches and they had been getting those first downs running. So he pitches it backwards that last time. If you want to pitch it pitch it, but do a normal pitch, not that backwards junk on 3rd and inches. And if you want to pitch it pitch it to Eli Apple’s side since he’s possibly the worst defensive player that’s ever played more than a couple years. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supremebve Posted September 18, 2023 Share Posted September 18, 2023 It is crazy how much faster Miami seems to be at every position. That deep shot where the receiver had no shot, but both defenders did was kind of crazy. The Bears seem to be a team where no one put any thought into how any of the players actually play, the Dolphins just look at 40 times and cut out anyone who isn't the fastest player at their position. One of these teams is better for a reason. Even a simple plan is better than no plan.
