I love lamp

[skinsfan07]

I just want 1 damn stop to start the half. Let us take the 17-13 lead, and then get some momentum.

Don't care what the score is, that was a major league ass whooping. Embarrassing.

[playoffsplz]

Terrible effort by the defense even with the Giants only up by 3. It almost looks like they are playing against themselves out there with the penalties.

Offensively we look good, but they "scared to give Eli the ball" approach at the 2 minute warning was ugly play-calling, and the possession after Eli's penalty on grounding was weak and unnecessary. considering how well we were moving north and south. We need to start hammering them bc if they get there heads straight on offensive it will be a blow out in the second half.

Giants are 8 of 10 on 3rd downs. I want to cry

This is killing us. Bottom line, if they don't get off the field on 3rd down it is going to be damn near impossible to win this game.

[Newera]

Absolutely 100% correct. Almost a criminal mistake. If the 'Skins lose by 3. That's a HUGE reason why. The Giants should never have seen the field again. OR, if Coughlin was smart, he would have used a TO. But, that's kindof a win also. With 40 seconds and 3 TOs, and a veteran like Eli, that's an eternity.

I could not believe we took a time out with a minute left. Why. You have the ball. Let some clock run or make them take a timeout. If so, they don't have one on that last pass to stop the clock. It's friggin common sense. I thought. Some quarterbacks you just can't give them time to come back. Eli is one of them. Don't give him three timeouts. Unbelievable Shanahan.

[zskins]

i wish we still had blache and his TO are overrated top 10 D.

[gortiz]

Again......did Mike Shannahan think that 40 seconds wasn't enough time for the Giants not to get in scoring position?????? Why the hell did he call that timeout!!!!!!

Didn't even think of that, but that was huge. What makes that timeout worse is the play we ran, the screen to Pierre.

Exactly what the doctor ordered

[skinpride1]

Eli Manning does not have one grass stain on his uniform...that is just BS!!!!

[SanfordJay]

Conversions of long yardage situations.....defense is killing us...tale of the tape for this season. Offseason subject to be addressed.

[JoeSkins]

It's totally NOT because of holding. Because that would certainly get called...

Hahaha yes he's getting away with quite a bit tonight

[frankez99]

Meh.....13-10.....although it feels like 30-10......I'll take it. Our D played like crap but somehow kept them to 13......imagine if they actually got some stops in the second half?

I'm discouraged; but not beaten.

Hail to the Redskins.

[SpringfieldSkins]

Our defense looks weak but Eli is a lot better than anybody will give him credit for.

This game ain't over yet.

[RichmondRedskin88]

So much negativity. The defense has problems, but this is one of the best teams in football and we are playing them close. There is still another half of football to play.

best team? dude they got blown out by the Bengals and loss to cowboys at home in the opener. They only won because of a blown coverage by our defense in week 7.
