On the Jason Campbell fumble. The protection was not that great. Tuck blew right around Samuels and applied pressure from the backside. Campbell should have more pocket presence and stepped up into the pocket. Both the protection and Campbell are at fault.
There was another running play when Hester let a defensive end come free and stuff a third down run attempt. The offensive line did okay but the Giants kept Campbell under pressure and forced him into hasty throws. I'm not sure a quarterback with more composure would have done anything differently. I don't think you are giving the Giants defense enough credit for keeping the pressure on.

It was Umenyora, not Tuck. And there's nobody by the name of "Hester" on the O-line. If you mean Stephon
Heyer, it should be noted that he didn't allow a sack all game.
While the pass protection wasn't perfect, considering the athletes the Giants have on their front four, it was adequate.
