Let's see. Last play of the game, Skins have no chance to win, and Kiwanuka angling for a meaningless kill shot on Campbell. What do you expect him to do? He didn't do anything different than most DB's when they get beat. But, how bout this beauty?

Excellent response. I'll take holding all day long over risking my QB. I'm sure many offensive linemen and coaches would agree. It was the end of the game. There was no point in trying to level Campbell. I think Kiwanuka was just trying to get a hit (any hit) in after the embarrassment of being blown off his feet by Portis. I watched that game and there was a lot of ugly stuff that went on. The above is just one example. No one on the Giants has any right talking about dirty play.
The refs need to step up and stop this. They did a very poor job controlling the emotions of that game. This isn't hockey. (God forbid it might slow the game down and interrupt McCain. Hmmm.)

The only thing I don't like about the wonderful hit Clinton put on, is that he didn't even search for someone else to engage afterwards. The play wasn't over yet, and he's talking trash as soon as he hits the ground. But, other than that....awesome.

Yup ,a cheap shot .Ok you'er beat, grab some jersey don't dive at his legs or ankels.Just remember as I said the chip block was perfect,texbook...but it took two players.Jacobs did it by himself.

Kiwanuka is a pussy and Pierce is a punk. I agree completely with Tuck. Samuels wasn't trying to be a dirty player but there is no way he'd let Kiwanuka put his QB out for the season.

He didn't dive at his ankles he grabbed his waist and tackled him. Landing on the back of his legs wasn't intentional.

I really don't think anyone on the Giants, especially Pierce, are in a position to comment on "cheap shots".

[sportscurmudgeon]

Anyone who does not think that was a cheap shot by Samuels on the last play of the game forfeits their right to screech when the Giants take a cheap shot on Samuels in the rematch. I fully expect at least one shot to Samuels lower legs in the second game. It will cost the Giants 15 yards, but I expect it will happen.

People don't seem to understand the difference between an illegal play and a cheap shot. Samuel's tackling of Kiwanuka was clearly against the rules (i.e., illegal). However, there is nothing that suggests it was an attempt to hurt Kiwanuka (i.e., a cheap shot).

You're making no sense. Please write a more coherent sentence.

Start at the begining and maybe you could comprehend things a little better.

Holding,grabing some Jersey ...yup illegal but not cheap I agree,diving on the mans legs from behind..............dirty.I can defend myself when I see a player coming at me but when they come from behind there is nothing a man can do.What people seem to forget also is he just sat out most of last year with a broken leg ...the same leg.Why do you think a clip is illegal or no blocking in the back,or even the horse coller rule?

Ugh let it go. There was no diving on his legs he simply held him and brought him down.

If it was dirty the league will fine Samuels.
