Romo threw a crappy pass to Roy, this is fact. So he missed one sure TD today. He did not throw any INTs. He did not fumble. He did not make any boneheaded plays. He played out of his mind and his passes were pretty much on the money all game.
To even hint at putting the loss on Romo is assinine.
Bennett dropped a pass that would have given us a first down on the opening drive. Instead we had to punt.
Barber stunk it up. He fumbled, which led to a TD. He got very little rushing. Late in the game, on 4th down, he stopped 2 yds short of the marker, caught the pass and was tackled 1 yd short. If he runs past the marker, we get the 1st.
Folk once again missed a critical FG. He is off right now. Of course, that long FG was foolish. I would have either gone for the Hail Mary or used Beuhler to kick it.
Scandrick and Ball couldnt cover or tackle anyone today. In fact, the whole defense had tackling issues today.
Our kick coverage was horrible. It was our worst effort of the year. They looked like a Coach Read group instead of a Coach D group out there today.
Spencer was offsides a few times and he ran himself right out of position on the Jacobs TD reception.
Finally, and I am not blaming them for the loss, yet I am frustrated with them...the referees. The Giants got zero holding penalties today. However, on the long Jacobs TD, Sensabaugh was clearly held. It was the same kind of hold that Butler was charged with on the long Felix KR. Also, on a few of our pass rush attempts, we were held mightily, allowing Eli to escape and find open WRs. I just wish the refs would call it a few times to keep em honest. But since they wont call it, the Giants continue to do it. The only other one that bugged me was the no call when Webster molested Roy Williams early in the game.
So today, Romo, Witten, Roy, Austin, Crayton, Ratliff, Jenkins, and Newman get a pass. The rest of the team laid a complete egg.
