I totally agree...Portis just opened with a huge run...and then they resort to some sort of trick play? on the SECOND O PLAY of the game? what is up with that? terrible call....run it again, keep it simple....we should have got 3 points out of that drive at least....

And if there were two plays the Giants staff made them watch repeatedly it must have been the El reverse pass to Cooley for a TD against Philly and Thomas' reverse for a TD against them. At least wait until the 3rd quarter when everyone is caught up in the flow of the game. If you bust off a big run, call it again just to see what happens, That gives you time to decide on your attack play.

Also Randle El should have thrown that to Row R. He's supposed to be the 3rd QB.
