Week 14 vs Philly - 2nd half

• 2nd half not much better. Lots of barn burners like this one going on today in the NFL; low scoring, bad playing (maybe, I'm only watching this game).
• Held 'em to a FG, which helps.
• 4 flags! What is it? Who did it? Eli is hovering over the refs like a nervous mommy. Delay of game? For the spike by Burress. You gotta be kidding me. That was ridiculous. Plax shouldn't have done it but that's a pretty shit call.
• Somewhat similar to last week, this Eagles team isn't all that good. Which means the Giants should win, right? But they aren't playing well at all. Remember Week 1, when they scored a pile of points against Dallas? That was then.
• Back and forth, back and forth. Bor-ing.
• FUMBLE! Finally something good for the Giants. Hopefully they won't
  
• 1st fumble by Westbrook in 557 touches. Sheesh, that's good.
• Andy THROWS that flag! Hot damn! Impressive throw, tubby. I think he was down but I'm biased. It's a little unclear. This is one of those times that the replay rule is a little annoying. I know, maybe it'll go my way, but it slows the game down so that it's almost baseball-like.
• So it went my way. Love that replay rule.
• OK, look. Plax is hurt. But the guy really can play. Shit, without him, the Giants are out of a lot of games. 13-10 Giants.
• Sack #2 for McNabb. Not a big one but we'll take it. Ten to go.
• Houston is beating Tampa Bay, Detroit is beating Dallas - weird day.
• STOPPED. Got the ball back. This game is moving slower than a pitcher's duel.
  
• OK, watching some guy rub Strahan's back while he puts his head in the dude's armpit is just kind of disturbing.
• One more chance to not stall in the red zone. Aaaand it happens again. They just can't get it done once they get there. Why is that? I blame... Tommy C.
• Another sneak for McNabb. Maybe Andy Mayo is trying to get him killed rather than trading/cutting him at the end of the year. Not that I think he should do that, but it's gonna happen.
  
• Coughlin cursin' on camera!
  
• Aside: not to go all Kornheiser on ya but I played all of the wrong guys in Fantasy today.
• Big penalty. Why is it that sometimes it's a first down and sometimes it's just five yards? NFL has too many rules.
• Burress with a big catch on 3rd and 1. Not sure what the goose-step was at the end but I'll take it.
• Really nice run by Jacobs. This is what the team is supposed to look like, frankly. Of course, he did fumble at the end, but maybe he was down. That's a perfect example of what's happening with the Giants - a nice run that ends in a fumble, even if it was a questionable fumble. Well, there's the replay, and no, it was a fumble. Fuck.
• Now's the time in the Giants' game when they fall apart!
• 
• Do not touch my monkey.
• Pierce stops them, and no flag, which makes sense, cuz it's not like the Giants are the Patriots or something.
• I'll say this, the games recently have been exciting at the end.
• Coughlin needs to show Jacobs whatever he showed Tiki about how not to fumble.
• Philly has a couple of time outs so NY still needs to get the 1st downs and keep them away from the ball. Jacobs doesn't get it, so they have to decide what to do. 4th and 1, 1:15 and counting. I guess they wait until the last possible second, take the delay of game penalty... no, wait. Eli calls time out when the play clock gets to 1. That confuses me but what do I know. Feagles on to kick, he's actually start to look as old as he is. Eagles are out of time outs, so I guess that makes sense. Jeffy F can really put the ball behind the 10, it's kind of amazing. Westbrook gets out of bounds but he doesn't have anywhere to go so he's backed up like a senior citizen after a plate of corn and cheese.
• McNabb makes a big toss and gets some key yardage. The Giants defense is asleep at the switch here. No time outs, McNabb stops the clock, makes the throw to the sideline to stop it again, Akers comes on to make the long field goal attempt. This would tie it, 57 yard attempt is... NO GOOD. Oy vey, kish mer tuchas, that was much closer than we would've liked. One second left. Akers looks like he's going to commit hari-kari. And that's it. Giants win in spectacularly lame fashion.
