Positives

1 No turnovers - we were actually +1 TO ratio. Over the course of the season this is usually a key stat and it is something every coach preaches.

2 Rock Cartwright his straight line return style isn't flashy and nobody will confuse him with Devin Hester, but that return at the end of the first half gave us a little spark and great field position that the offense used to score the lone TD.

3 London Fletcher 17 tackles, 12 solo. This guy is a tackling machine in general, but he was everywhere on the field Thursday. Could he get over 250 for the season?

4 Blache It took a questionable (at best) pass interference call to get the Giants in the end zone. And, zero points in the second half. He had people in position all night and there is no doubt that he is the boss of the defense.

No kidding, that PA was absurd. Toomer pushed off, just like Smoot told the ref. I can admit when a Redskins corner has a legit PA, but that one was a bad call. Then Madden came on with is "yeah, that's definitely pass interference" analysis. That really pissed me off. Aikman would have called the refs out, which is why he's the best color guy working these days.
