D.C. Sports Bog: Media Responses to the Skins Loss

[Ruhskins]

I dunno if this was covered in this article, but I think it is crazy how ESPN called this game almost a blowout...which it wasn't. Honestly, this was one of those ugly defensive struggles, where one offense (the Giants) did a bit better than the other (Redskins). The Giants moved the ball well in the first half, but only had one TD to show for, and three FGs. They didn't score at all in the 2nd half and never put the game away. The Redskins offense may have been dismal (sp?) in the first half, and were not good enough to catch up the Giants in the second half. I just don't see how this is a blow out. I'm not calling this a moral victory to the Skins whatsoever, but everyone makes it sound like we lost to the Giants 41-3.
