Sam Huff, the Redskins' defensive captain, insists to this day that he signaled time out to the referees and told his coach, Otto Graham, to send the field goal team into the game. With a goal of humiliating his nemesis, Giants' coach Allie Sherman, Huff implored Graham to "show no mercy."
OK, so it's not terribly controversial. The dispute appears to be over just who actually called that time out, which led to a field goal, putting the score over (ulp) 70 points. To say that the Giants defense doesn't look so good is, at this point, the understatement of the year, but they should be able to hold the Skins to fewer than 71 points.
Prediction: Giants get their first win of the year and stop the Skins from going 3-0. Final score: 24-21.
