I don't know what you guys are talking about. I think it's a terrific game so far. Wink Especially since I figured the Bungles were done if they didn't win today.

But yeah, the Giants look absolutely pathetic today. Their O-line can't protect worth sh*t, I don't know what Eli's doing anymore, and the turnovers are killing them. And to think our defense had only forced 10 turnovers going into today's game doesn't make it look any better for you guys.

Still though, I'd be happy the rest of the NFC East is a bunch of (self-)sabotaged nutcases. So I think the Giants should still scrape into the playoffs.

The Giants are pathetic! When they don't get the turnovers for them, they can't win.

Well...you hate to gripe when you win but the gmen have had their problems and it was bound to come to light. O line has failed (ever since Diehl came back) Eli fail, defense started off sh*t, though tough to always be in their bad position. Just wow.
I've never, even in his rookie year, seen Eli in such a funk

Thank god the nfc east is full of underperforming pissfactories. Makes up for almost all the terribleness from the giants game.

Hey if ya saw my comment, well I'll just make sure:

Trust me, few Giants fans there really thought otherwise. Sometimes the bad ref calls hurt you, sometimes they help!
Seriously, it does pain me..the big blue wrecking crew? Man, the small blue knitting crew is more like it. OK that sucked but I have a headache and am woozy from gas fumes from 2 hour lines. Cut me some slack!


IDK if the Eagles or Saints want to win this game. They aren't looking like it!

You can definitely maintain it: just keep scooping up incomplete passes and running them in for TDs WinkLOL

Don't get toooo happy MoM....The Giants defense after allLOL
I'll admit, while our D sucks they are clutch...always a sack, pick or fumble at just the right time, even if they do nothing else. Can't maintain that forever though, and I think the faith/gamble, always go for the deep pass offense we've been running was also a time bomb. Sadly the Giants were heading for this loss and it finally whacked em. Colonel Coughlin needs to whip em into shape fast.

At least the Skins and Boys lost. If the Eagles go down, then the Giants loss never happened Wink and thank god it happened against an AFC team.
Speaking of the Eagles, yikes! I like seeing Vick get pummeled but this is almost getting painful to watch.

Edit: Oh, this may not seem like a big deal but MWH will get me. David Diehl came back against the Steelers. The guys at PFF rated him the worst Tackle AND Guard in the NFL in 2011. He played two spots, and was the worst at bothCry
Sure enough, he was letting people by like a turnstile. The Giants have no problem cutting anyone, even vets but they keep that POS aroundAngry

The Steelers had the bad habit to repeatedly take penalties in their pass coverage, and i have to say that there was a couple of bad calls from the ref. The Giants never get the rhythm with their offense but  turnovers keep them in the game. I am glad that the Steelers won this one because it didn't look good before the 4th quarter.

I literally just saw the highlights of the game.  Road tripped it to Akron to see Ian Anderson and got out of radio range right after the awful personal foul call (the radio guys were incensed by both that and the pass interference call earlier in that drive, which I've yet to see)  which gave the Giants their first TD.  Was relying on texts from my father to keep me posted.  Got the good news a few minutes before the concert started so it was a great night for me, all around.  Seems like the refs might have been taking pity on NY, after the hurricane, as it seems hard to believe they could've been that bad.  Before the game I saw GODell making sure to get himself on tv shaking hands with first responders and knew his attendence could spell problems for the Steelers defense.  It could have been the reason for the silly call against Ryan Clark and I imagine Harrison had to be walking on egg shells during the game.  Happy with the win and the continued dominance of the Steelers' running game!  (Exclaimation point for the existence of a running game in Pittsburgh.  Seems like it's been forever.)  Did I ever mention I really like Todd Haley? Wink

I'm just happy my Lions made it back to .500 with the season at the halfway point.  They may already have too many losses to contend for the playoffs, but they're definitely fighting strong right now.

Ah, yeah sadly it's part of the game we have to accept, bad calls are something that needs to be brushed off and just keep playing on, which the Steelers did.

other news: 51-20 Bears!? A Rod is still the best QB in the NFL, 251 yards and 4 TDs from Doug Martin. Insane!
Not as insane as the Lions winning with their run game...another awesome week, with 2 more good games yet to finish/be played.
