Flozell Adams isn’t much of a talker. In fact, you rarely see much emotion from the veteran offensive tackle. So hearing of Giants’ defensive end Justin Tuck’s comments concerning Adams’ tripping penalty didn’t bother him too much. With a few reporters around Adams, he basically shrugged off when learning Tuck called the play “Bush League,” especially in learning that Tuck injured his shoulder on the play.“I’m sure he’ll be fine. He’ll play next week.”

Tuck missed the entire second half with a sprained shoulder and complained about Flozell after the game. “I think it was bush league," Tuck said. "He did it a few times in that game. Unfortunately he didn't get called the other times. He's athletic so he can make it look like an accident. But when it happens to you over and over again . . . I would've liked to have the rest of the game to punish him for that, but it didn't happen."

And surprise, surprise . . . but Brandon Jacobs had things to say after the game, too. The big running back said Marc Colombo pushed him in the back when teams were shaking hands immediately following the game. “I better not see him anywhere,” Jacobs said afterwards, referring to Colombo. "I'm just going to let him know that it was a real disrespectful thing for him to do."Good luck with that

These guys are classless even in a win!

Yep...but they won and with how they won they were probably laughing all the way back to NY.

But his QB is still walking isn't he?

Dooms, all i'm saying is that most players would be upset if they got hurt in the manner that Tuck did.

Especially against a team they despise so much.

It wasn't anything like what Hanesworth did to Gurode, but I do kind of think it was borderline Bush League.

Speaking of disrespectful.

During pregame warmups, the cowboys players were down in the endzone getting stretched and running and Brandon jacobs went down to that endzone, and he did a really classy thing. He started boxing with the goal post padding. It just oozed class and respect.

Exactly. You hope and prefer that your O-lineman can block their man legally. If they can't then they need to do what they can to protect their QB whether that is holding, grabbing a facemask or tripping.

I would put my entire life savings on Columbo vs Jacobs.

Columbo would kill someone, especially Jacobs.

Wow theebs. How pathetic is Jacobs? The dude has waaay too much hate for the Cowboys.

on a side note..that Bobby Carpenter stretching is rather unsettling.

You got it. It cost us a big play down field and backed us up deeper in the hole but at least it did not cost us our QB by standing there and letting Tuck have a free shot at Romo. I doubt any Giants players would be hollering had they knocked out Romo

I was at the game and Jacobs ran and jumped on the star after the game. That is why Columbo reacted. Jacobs is an idiot.

You'd have thought after last year, people would realize how important it is to protect your QB.

Yeah, Flozell drew a penalty and killed us with it.

But should he have done nothing?

Based on last year, Flozell did what he had to do. We got penalized. Dem's da breaks.
