For any who didn’t see the Giants pull another comeback win, this time vs. Jacksonvile, some on the BY pay a lot of attention to reffing. The Giant game had some of the worst calls to overcome. The crazy last minute included two bad penalty calls that gave Jax a reasonable last second shot at winning. Which they would have except for one of the best tackles I’ve ever seen on the last play to keep a receiver with momentum stood straight up and dropped at the one. Giants aren’t that convincing but they sure have found ways to win. But lost 2 starting O line plus a TE yesterday.

Yeah that last drive was a lot of weird stuff. So glad they held on. What a start. If they lost yesterday saquon would have heard a lot of backlash for going out of bounds two times on last drive when he should have fallen down in bounds.

And yet, the smoke & mirrors show continues. As a Giants fan, it has been both exhilarating & exasperating. The way Big Blue marched down the field on the opening drive, I thought that, at last, the offense would be scoring at will, Instead, it, yet again, struggled to reach the 20 point plateau.

He did try to stay in that last time. It made one heck if a difference.

The first one he was in traffic and his momentum carried him out of bounds the second he was inbounds.

The officiating in sports absolutely has to be investigated that last drive is what makes people conspiracy theorists.

The NFL won’t police itself, the refs are part time employees, do people really think Donaghy is the only official to bet on games? Jags being a 3 pt favorite they get the TD at the end they win by 3 coincidence? There were awful calls on the Jags too prior too the last drive, I feel the official were trying to play the spread.

The major issue is more so the higher up’s then the officials. It’s interesting that you can’t criticize the officiating and are never held responsible.

While it’s suspect, if they had scored and kicked the EP they win by 1.
