Perhaps the single worst performance in NFL history by a team

[Flamma]

actually, it's not the optics its the rule, he didnt make a football move, it's an interception. Case in point if that ball would have hit the ground it would have been an incomplete pass not a fumble... So, by rule and all optics it's an interception

I mean Prescott got all those ones blamed on him last year.. But now what we making excuses for Daniel Jones and Saquon Barkley?? Yes it was a great defensive play but it's still an interception by rule....

I know the rule, and I know why it was called an interception. I just don't think it was. It was a catch and fumble. Plain and simple. I also agree that had it hit the ground they would have called it an incompletion. I just don't agree with it. The dude caught the ball and got it knocked out. The reason I say this is because had Diggs, or whoever it was not hit him, he would have run for a good gain. At no point in time was that ball flying through the air for anyone to catch. Dude caught the ball and got it knocked out. To me that's a catch and fumble. Nothing about that play was an interception.

He's always been good. Last year he made a business decision. I hate when players do that. It's a message to the ownership, I want to be paid.

I agree. Glad to see now that he has been paid he isn’t making the same decision. He laid it to barkley.

Yep. And by rule it's an interception. But in reality it's a catch fumble. Had he not made that hit Barkley would have kept running with it. IMO an interception is a pass never caught. That ball did not bounce off Barkley. He caught it, and Diggs separated him from it.

The league is over 100 years old, so the worst loss ever is stretching things.

In the NFL Championship game in 1940 Chicago beat the Washington team 73-0.
11 touchdowns, 8 ints, including 3 pick 6s.

Last night was a beatdown, though.

It’s the Cowboys and New York media combined. Everything about this game will be ’greatest’ or ‘all-time.’ They can’t help themselves.

Yeah that may be something stat people could change. If he caught it and makes a football move and looses the ball or knocked out it should be a fumble whether the ball hits the ground or not.

I'm not sure he made what they call a football move. But he actually caught the ball. You can see it in slow motion. Had no one been there to hit him he runs up the field with the ball. To me that's not a pick. To me a pick is when the ball is intercepted or bounces off a player and is grabbed from the air. This was not the case. To call that pass a Jones interception is just stupid.

And I don't get why you don't understand the rule he made no football moves remember Dez Bryant I know they changed some stuff he literally Bang Bang didn't have it long enough to be considered a catch sorry you're wrong you can slow it down and make it look like that but in real time it hit him in the hands and before he can make any decision of what to do with it it got dislodged that's why it's a deflection interception case closed but hey I'm all for changing the rules get them to start tagging the players who are responsible for the intersections if it's tipped at the line it's on the offensive line if the quarterback is ran into or grabbed it's on the offensive line if it's ricochets off of player who should have caught it in the hands it's on the wide receiver or tight end..

That would stop all this nonsense blaming quarterbacks for interceptions and then talking about it all off season and talking about it all during leading up to the first game you know IE Prescott when seven of those could be considered other people's issues from last year that's a fact..

So sure if you want to talk about it get the rule changed. That would be really awesome if they would change that and we could blame the correct people for the mistakes... But I do like all the excuses for Josh Allen and all the other quarterbacks this weekend it was other people but with Prescott it was oh he threw the ball it was in his hands he let it go that's on him OK different standard

I find it interesting how hard you're arguing about this for another player from another team but you didn't do this with Prescott did you argue those seven that we picked apart that we can say weren't on him???

were you vehemently supporting Prescott like you are Barkley?? maybe you're a Barkley fan??​

​

I mean I don't get this dude this is an interception and no matter what you do to it he did not have it long enough in his hand that he could have made a football move before it got knocked out that's why it got knocked out that's why it's called interception because the defender hit him at the perfect time to make it not a catch and it bounce off him he didn't have it long enough in his hand to make a move any move therefore it's not a football move it's hit him in the hands and then it's gone that's a bam bam play that's always gonna be called an interception...​

This is a New York Giants thread.

dang it

 

[PAPPYDOG]

That was just a statistical butt whooping on the Giants

Giants are done for the season.
Top 5 pick coming up.............

 

[TwoDeep3]

Opening day in the year 2000. Dallas played the Eagles. Dallas got their arses handed to them. How bad was it?

41-14.

But they scored 14 points.

This is how it went down.

First Quarter
Phi--J.Thomason 1 pass from D.McNabb (D.Akers kick),
Phi--D.Staley 1 run (D.Akers kick),

Second Quarter
Phi--J Trotter 27 yard interception return (D.Akers kick),
Phi--FG D. Akers 33
Dal--FG T. Seder 34
Dal--FG T. Seder 38

Third Quarter
Phi--FG D. Akers 37

Fourth Quarter
Phi-- D. McNabb 3 run (D.Akers kick),
Phi-- B. Mitchell 6 run (D.Akers kick),
Dal-- J.Galloway 4 pass from R.Cunningham (R.Ismail pass from, R.Cunningham),

*****Notice the only TD for Dallas was thrown by Randall Cunningham

Every team has it's worst game. I imagine I could find one that is similar to the Giant's game Monday if I looked.

 

[TwoDeep3]

You know I might actually pay to see an NFL team field someone off the street for one series. It would be an eye opener to fans who constantly harp on unrealistic expectations and claim they could do better.

I think they should have a show where a "ff the street nobody" is suited up at a different position each week for one series to show fans what NFL standard of play is all about.

 

[Runwildboys]

The Cowboys defense did all that in one game.

I know they know they have to go out and do it again. That should take a lot of criticism away from the Giants.

I mean, if the Cowboys beat the Jets 37-6, was last nights game a poor performance by the Giants offense or a legendary performance by an historic Cowboys defense?

It'll be a "Well the Jets lost Rodgers, and now they're terrible." game.

Honestly…. That game reminded me of the 92-93 Super Bowl. Massive pile-on and turnover fest and bleeding never stopped. All it was missing was Don Beebe running down one of our players.

I was trying to put my finger on when I've seen us just explode on an opponent like that...yes...it was like that game. Also like the playoff rematch we had with the Eagles in that same playoff run. They beat us earlier in the season on Monday night and we absolutely destroyed them ...except for some garbage time scores. Scores which drove Jimmy mad of course. (God I miss him). But in this game, we didn't even allow the garbage time scores. It was complete and utter humiliation end-to-end.

Like at one point, I was felt like the people in the crowd watching William Wallace being disemboweled: "Just say mercy...!". Anything that could have gone wrong did go wrong for the Giants. It almost felt like damnation from the football gods.

Hey! Watch it man!

This is NOT a comedy site.

That blocked FG for a TD qualifier is going to eliminate a lot of other beatdowns.

The Browns were though an expansion team that year, so they do have a bit of an excuse.

No! This was 10 years earlier.

I love the new era of "dumb faces made by NY Giants QBs" but with Daniel Jones, it's just his normal face!!

He’s got Resting Dumb Face
