So the Giants are up 3 points, control the ball, manage to get the ball close to the goal line,
and deplete the opposition's allotment of time outs. It's an easy make, but the team is told
not to score. There is something like 95 seconds left and Eli, rather than running around in the backfield
for awhile, and then finding a nice, comfortable place to flop down (and allowing the clock to bleed off
another 45 seconds before kicking the field goal) decides the correct thing to do is chuck the ball into
the seats and stop the clock. This left well over a minute for Cowboys to march the ball down down the field -needing all but 7 seconds- to score the game winning TD. And they pay Tom Coughlin and Eli how many
millions a year to come up with that bone-headed play? Where can I send my application?
