I could never feel bad for a Cowboys fan because I still remember all the Cowboys jackets in my New York and New Jersey schools in the 90s. America’s team my ass!
Anyway, this is funny. It seems like many Cowboys fans believe it (who knows it could be) – Romo didn’t know what down it was at a critical point in the game.
Is this guy a #1 receiver? Check out his 2009 stats through 4 games (vs. 2 good defenses and 2 bad defenses):
#1 Receptions: 34
#1 Receiving Yds: 411
#1 Receiving TDs: 4
#1 First downs: 22 (Amongst receivers)
#2(T) Plays over 20 yds: 6 (Manningham is tied for first)
I say sloppy cause of all the penalties but considering how badly the refs sucked today I need to watch again before commenting on them. But for example look at the unnecessary roughness against Smith they called and the one they didn’t call and you’ll a terribly inconsistent crew that is an embarrassment to the NFL.
But as annoying as the refs were, this was a nice win because the Giants pretty much controlled the Chiefs – just like a good team should. We had plenty of offense, great defense (until the final minutes) that got some sacks, and good special teams (fumble recovery on kickoff, recovered an onsides kick to start the second half).
Did I mention the announcers were as annoying as the refs? And as stupid?
There is some concern over Eli Manning’s heel, but it does sound like everyone’s saying he’ll be fine. Mario Manningham also regressed a bit – missed some catches he should make – but he’s only played a handful of NFL games. Steve Smith was amazing and Hakeem Nicks looked good so they picked up any slack…
You know the Giants and Chiefs don’t have much in common when reporters are stretching to find weird connections like: Giants strength coach Jerry Palmieri coached at Kansas State (’87-92).
The giants are 3-0. Kansas City is 0-3. They went 2-14 last year. We made the playoffs (and then got knocked out early after Manning had a terrible game in Philadelphia).
This comparison from KC is a little better. They talk about how badly the Chiefs played against the Eagles and how the Giants have been successful. I’ll be honest – I think we win big against Kansas City. In theory, that’s the way it should go down. Sometimes things work out differently in real life than they do in theory, but let’s not let today’s game be one of those times. Go Giants!
