Game Thread W10 - Minnesota V NY Giants (1 Viewer)

[Billy Bats]

Somebody on the NyG SP coaching staff needs to be fired immediately. What a nightmare.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Shall I remind you all how Carolina going for 2 too early in the Super Bowl two years ago essentially cost them the game?

You really should read up on 2 point conversions more.

What the Hades is going on in this game?

I don't need to read that chart to know what the deal is. And now, because they kicked the extra point, they are still within one possession of tying the game. And in case you forgot, in the Super Bowl, Carolina missed 2 two-point conversions and New England made 1. That is the difference of 3. And how many points did Carolina lose by? THREE.

 

[Woz]

What's going on is the Vikes defense and SP came to play today. The secondary has looked great, line is getting pressure, and the LBs are double-teaming Shockey.

 

[morehouse_slim]

Giants special teams having a rough day.

Regression to the mean...the Giants aren't as good as people have been hyping and the Vikes aren't quite as bad.

This is what you call a Decent team playing down to their Competition.Either that, or the Vikes have been playing us all for fools and were just waiting for the 2nd half of the season to start their drive for the super bowl.

 

[Yankee23Fan]

This is making me ****ing sick. Heads better roll on the Special Teams after this.

The Eagles spin machine is in full effect I see.

 

[FunkyPlutos]

at the two easy FGs that Edinger missed in the 1st quarter!!

You never know in that division

I would agree with the former, but not the latter. The Vikings are a bad team, but I am not convinced the Giants are as good as their record. How well they play on the road against Philly and Washington will say a lot.

You really should read that ARTICLE (it's not a chart). It specifically deals with the Carolina v New England super bowl. You have no idea what you are talking about.

 

[Facecow]

Troy Williamson sighting. He's been kinda lost from the offense for a little while; I'd like to see what he can do. Lousy Bennett fumble.

 

[Donnybrook]

I knew that was going to happen

 

[Woz]

So long Michael Bennett.

 

[Rev]

:X :X Please no more 2-point conversion debate. I'd rather watch a turd flush down the can. In other news, Bennet with the fumble... get Moore in there for PeteSakes.

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

LOL, WTF was Shockey doing?!

 

[Dr. Pepper]

Nice play Eli.

 

[Jules Winnfield]

From PWTorch.com

Shortly after Guerrero's body was found and removed from the room, Chris Benoit, Rey Mysterio, Dean Malenko and Chavo Guerrero visited the hotel room to say their goodbyes

cleanup coverup crew?

There goes your starting job BennettAdded

What the hell?

 

[Facecow]

Eli fumbles immediately! Vikes get the ball back! Giants challenge.

 

[cowboyz]

LMAO, coughlin is going to have a heart attack, shockey just watched the ball roll while the vikings player picked it up.

 

[Maelstrom]

Bennett fumbleTime for Moore to get back in on offense.(Maybe got it back?)

 

[Corn Man]

WHat the hell was that? Why didn't Shockey go for the ball?Looked almost like a backwards pass to me.

 

[Billy Bats]

Incomplete pass, I think. Good job by Shockey clapping while Minnesota picks it up and runs with it. What the hell was he doing??

 

[Jules Winnfield]

The ball went backwards

 

[Ghost Rider]

You really should read that ARTICLE (it's not a chart). It specifically deals with the Carolina v New England super bowl. You have no idea what you are talking about.

I did read it. And that is their OPINION. They can throw out all of the obscure stats and numbers they want, too. I am not saying I am right and you are wrong. I simply think early in the 3rd quarter or even early in the 4th quarter (like in the Car/NE SB) is too early to chase the points. Is there any doubt the refs are going to reverse this call in favor of the Giants?

If they rule incomplete can the Vikes turn around and throw a red flag and ask to see if the ball went backwards?

 

[Ghost Rider]

The ball went backwards

I didn't notice that, but if it did, then it doesn't matter if his arm was moving forward or not.

 

[RoarinSonoran]

at the two easy FGs that Edinger missed in the 1st quarter!!

You've obviously missed the SF/CHI highlights.

 

[Facecow]

Good call.

 

[Corn Man]

Lucky break for the Giants. That went backwards.

 

[FunkyPlutos]

That went backwards!

 

[KnowledgeReignsSupreme]

Yeah nothing like "opinion" based on a mathematical model made specifically for football situations like 2 point conversions vs some guy on the internet who thinks you should go for 1 when you are down by 2 and your offense has stunk all game and may not ever get a better chance at tying the game.

 

[Jules Winnfield]

Good call.

The ball went backwards! How was that a good call?

 

[shadyridr]

LMAO at Tice thinking the call went the Vikings way AFTER the ref announced it.

 

[Ghost Rider]

Wow, whether he was passing or not, that ball clearly went backwards. This is one of the most biased games I have ever seen officiated.

 

[GhostOfAnAlias]

Good call.

The ball went backwards! How was that a good call?

This was, by definition, a lateral.

And a lateral that isn't recovered by the offense is, by definition, a fumble.

HORRIBLE call by the refs.

 

[Dr. Pepper]

Nice play Eli.

 

[shadyridr]

Wow that looked like an easy TD and that Safety was just ssitting there

 

[Facecow]

Good call.

The ball went backwards! How was that a good call?

Hmmm...I hadn't thought of that. I was so fixated on the incomplete pass as a result of his arm motion.Manning interception makes up for the bad call.

 

[Jules Winnfield]

Good call.

Hmmm...I hadn't thought of that. I was so fixated on the incomplete pass as a result of his arm motion.Manning interception makes up for the bad call.

So were the refs. Does anybody know if Tice could have thrown a red flag and asked the refs to see if it was a lateral right after they made their decision?

 

[Corn Man]

Tiki's going to get me just-not-enough again. Stupid holding penalties. The Giants look really bad.

 

[jwvdcw]

looked like he was covering another guy and came off him once the ball was thrown.

I have no idea if this is true, but I thought you can't challenge a reversed call from a challenge.

 

[Winston Smith]

What a stat line for Bennett: 15 carries, 9 yards, 1 fumble lost, 5 catches, 6 yards.

 

[Maelstrom]

Tiki's going to get me just-not-enough again. Stupid holding penalties. The Giants look really bad.

heh - I traded Tiki and a hurt R.Moss for LT and RSmith. Good call so far, I think.

 

[Donnybrook]

Why is Michael Bennett still in the game? Vikings could win this despite Tice.

 

[FunkyPlutos]

Facemask...and the ref was looking right at it on Bennett's run..
