I know something you don't know: Redskins-Giants first half quick hits

[Coff]

Good analysis GTripp, you obviously did your homework.

I'm a little more hesitant to fault the defensive play or the play calling though. Remember, this is the highest scoring offense in the league and Manning was on fire in the first half; he converted numerous third and longs by perfectly placing balls that otherwise would have been incomplete; the coverage was that tight. As much as it pains me to admit it, I'm beginning to believe that when Manning is at his best, he's as good as anyone (especially with the deep ball) and he was at his best in the first half of the game. Skins gambled and they played the price. The fact is, the Giants are a superior team, and you won't beat a superior team without throwing the dice.
