ES Coverage & Interactive Game Day Thread: 2012 Redskins vs Giants (Final)

[Jumbo]

I'll take the crow and shove it down my throat.

The defense stepped up in the 2nd half. I'm impressed.

Now they just have to continue stepping up every game...

Well played, sir.

[Skins4Life6388]

I wore my RG3 jersey in a bar full of Giants' fans for a second time this year. I kept hearing all kinds of hate on our team and guys calling for RG3 to be injured while I cheered on my team loudly in that place. Very sweet night, hope to have many more.

Hoping a guy gets injured? Keep it classy Giants!

man, i sure am loving all these player evaluations good call by shanahan

[Conn]

regarding how/why he played through the pain, he kept saying they try to embarrass you (Giants/opposing team on national tv) and that Robert is a dynamic QB and they want to get to him and take shots and he was gona play through the pain to prevent both points.

Awesome, thanks for the info!

[Mr. Sinister]

Garcon played his ass off tonight. Came through with some huge catches.

That dudes speed is unreal, even with a bum toe. I'm still in like half-shock, that's the only way I can describe it. MNF, at home, Super Bowl Champs, backs against the wall, and we ****ing did it. That was an old school victory. We ran it right down their throats.

Have a good nights sleep, Mr. Mara.

[Conn]

Just talked about how he knew the Giants D were gonna go after Rob hard tonight. And it was gonna take a lot to keep him out. Said he was in a lot of pain. Bit "my leg was in tact so i am going to play."

Thanks!

[Monte51Coleman]

History will dictate...RGIII is the greatest QB sitting at that desk.

He's already the second best.

Now doesn't this victory moves us to the top of the "In The Hunt" standings?

Yup. We own tiebreakers on the Bucs, Vikings, and Dallas, and while St. Louis owns the tiebreaker on us they're a half game back because of their tie.

We still have a tough road and need help though. Seahawks are a game ahead, own common games tiebreaker, and have a comparatively easy schedule.

St. Louis being a half game back is interesting, if they drop one the best they can do is 8.5 wins, so they really need to win out to have a shot.

hahaha on CSN live brian mitchell just said "i change into my ****ing clothes"

Hats off to you, amigo. That's a bar I'm glad I didn't walk into to meet you.

Yes.

Infuriating thought: if it weren't for the replacement refs gifting the Seahawks a win against the Packers, we would currently occupy the last wild card spot.

:mad:

[MartinC]

Oh...BTW...if oneof the Giants jumped up on the wall in front of me, I'd have dumped my beer on him!

Some fan did that to Lyle Alzado back in the day as the players were on the way for half time. Lyle jumped in the stands, grabbed the fan and started beating him with his helmet until a couple of (brave) teammates pulled him off.

[Chew]

is it just me, or was there a butt-load of Giants blue in the stands tonight???

Hoping a guy gets injured? Keep it classy Giants!

My friend and a few weren't as bad. One guy told a Giants' fan he should have traded his Eli jersey for my RG3 one.

[Mr. Sinister]

is it just me, or was there a butt-load of Giants blue in the stands tonight???

Yes. An ass load. Enough to hear those stupid "Cruuuuz" chants. We still rocked the joint though. Seemed to be a ton of Giants fans in the lower bowls..

[Skins4Life6388]

Yes.

:mad:

I'm really hoping that doesnt come back to cost us. That would hurt so bad.

Well I think there are still 2 teams ahead of us (chicago and seattle)

On the positive side, per their playoff machine, some scenarios (sorted by power rankings) show us making the wild card spot even if we lose to the ravens

Fire, meet arse. I think Shanny was lighting a fire.

That's different, Lyle didn't jump onto the wall after a score.....plus Lyle was insane.

[44aDieselGirl]

Now I can't sleep!!

[CjSuAvE22]

They better suspend the idiot that stomped Lich.....

[TheItalianStallion]

I'm not sure I've ever wanted a win as badly as I wanted one tonight. I am SO stoked right now! Btw another 100+ rating for RG3!

[Cooleyfan1993]

ok. after doing the ESPN playoff machine thing for week 14, i got the redskins getting the 4th seed in the NFC. thats with only picking the redskins to beat the ravens and the giants to lose to the saints. didnt even get to the seahawks vs cardinals game yet. thats crazy.
