It's a bummer CJGJ won't be eligible to return until the Saints game ... would love to have him for Dallas. Hopefully Blankenship will be ready by then. :fingers crossed: 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big___Al Posted December 13, 2022 Share Posted December 13, 2022 Yeah, but can he carry the ball as well as Siposs? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On the play it sure seemed to me like they hit him out of bounds. No call again for us and once again our player gets hurt. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can’t penalize a player for trying to make a tackle to prevent a first down. That wasn’t close to being a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Penn7980 Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Kern seems a good find. Credit to the FO to find these quality vets on the street to come in and help, Quinn, Joseph, Suh and now Kern. The personnel department has done well in the last couple of seasons. Howie has a share of the credit, but the scout team deserves a lot more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Miami Posted December 14, 2022 Share Posted December 14, 2022 Sorry he got hurt. That was a great play by Siposs. Saved a TD probably. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From their eyes, he's charging for the sticks. They should be entitled to make a normal hit there. Which they did. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Players not knowing where the are on the field is a bad reason for failing to call a penalty. The refs called him out 4 yards before he was hit. That’s when the play should be dead. Even still the player gave himself up by going out of bounds, but both Giants didn’t stop and lowered the boom despite that. The refs got it wrong and it should’ve been a penalty.

EazyEaglez Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 In this sequence of photos you can clearly see number 38 letting up and not hitting him understanding that he is going out of bounds, but number 27 and 28 are clearly not paying attention to the out of bounds lines. Later in the photos you see number 27 engaging with Siposs while he is already out of bounds while number 28 is actually stepping out of bounds to hit him again. The final photo you see number 28 taking a clear shot as the second player while he’s clearly out of bounds. Once again the refs blew it and we lost a player over it.

The good field position after the free kick often results in another 7 points. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re right that he had little to no options there. Also what does the safety accomplish? They give up two points, they lose the football, and the Giants likely get a short field. Turns 7 into 9 or 10 potentially. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I didn't understand why someone said he should have given up the safety. He made a very good play there and he almost turned it in to a first down. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
