    These illegal hands to the face calls are ridiculous.

    Jenkins had his hand up to block a pass and got blocked into Bradford.

    I figured this was a makeup call for Cedric Thornton's roughing the passer call where his hand lightly grazed Eli's shoulderpad.

    Can't tell if overzealous officiating staff or legitimate penalties.

    Hey, Giants defense is wearing down. Why NOT continue to press Bradford's accuracy?

    Not even an accuracy problem. Jesus couldn't have thrown that ball to ertz.

    Terrible decision to throw.

    Last time I pick the Giants. Sam Bradford is abysmal and they are still losing by 3 scores.

    Hey eagles Murray is actually running good, maybe try giving him the ball instead of these terrible passes?

    I hate this game because the Eagles' defense has performed well enough that I would be winning my fantasy matchup if I had remembered to check my lineup and put Jonathan Stewart in for TJ Yeldon. Now I'm actually getting punished for my mistake and that's bad.

    Eli Manning really just throws the ball wherever the fuck when he's being sacked.

    Yeah the eagles have known that for freaking YEARS.

    The only time we don't romp the Giants is when we somehow can't get to Eli for 60 whole minutes.

    if they try, the giants will just win the super bowl again.

    never fire tom coughlin.

    I'm pretty sure Coughlin is gone after this year. There is no way he gets fired mid-season. They've had some rough 4th quarters but this is the first game where they've looked bad.

    I'm hoping this game is an anomaly.

    I think the "clutch" Eli Manning we used to see is dead and gone. He's developed way too many bad habits by now.

    Eh...it's Thursday night football, I have every expectation that we could get a fluke win in an absolutely putrid game.

    The Colts Trick Play Was Even More Of A Mess Than We Thought
    Deadspin wrote:
    The original intent of the play, McAfee said on the radio this morning, was to trick the Patriots into thinking the Colts’ punt unit was coming off the field for a regular attempt to go for it on fourth. The idea was to confuse the Patriots into taking their punt return unit off the field and send their regulars back in, and catch them with too many men on the field.

    That would have worked better if the players actually looked like they were going off the field instead of just shifting a few yards to the right and getting set in an illegal formation.

    I think all the Colts men on the field, except the guy that wasn't supposed to have the ball snapped to him, didn't know what the hell they were supposed to be doing.

    No, just the guy who snapped the ball:
    “The gunner who then became the center all week was Clayton Geathers,” McAfee said Tuesday in an appearance on “The Bob & Tom Show,” a syndicated radio program. “Clayton Geathers gets injured in the second quarter. Insert Griff Whalen, who had never done it before. So Griff Whalen is now the new center in a play he’s never practiced before.”

    McAfee said the Colts were trying to catch the Patriots in a personnel change with too many players on the field, but when the Patriots did not make substitutions, it forced Plan B. He also said that when the play was installed in practice, Whalen was not with the punt team but was on the other side of the field catching punts.
