If BB did such a thing, all the “cheating” whiners would be out in force, for sure, but kudos to Coughlin (from this Pats fan) if he worked this penalty to the Giants advantage. Un-frikken-believable.

==============

what was u-frikken-believable, were the 2 drops that preceded the play (Hernandez then Dion Branch), then the two other fumbles the Pats didnt come up with.

You lost, AGAIN. Move on. Eli made an incredible throw to Mario Manningham , and you know it. It just wasn’t your day, PERIOD.
===============
The game was unbelievable, numb nuts. And yes, that play to Manningham was unbelievable, given the circumstances. Not lucky, mind you, like the Tyree catch, just unbelievable.

Learn how to take a compliment and enjoy your SB victory instead of being so uptight about your QB and team.

Too bad your fan base couldn’t follow that same advice in the early 200os…leading up to today. Pats fans have been obsessing about Peyton Manning vs. Tom Brady since forever…failing to realize that no amount of Super Bowl wins will ever change the fact that Peyton is and always will be the better QB. Heck, Eli is showing that he is better than Tom as well, given his recent head-to-head 3-1 record against Tammy Boi.

Smart move, Coughlin.

It’s a way to eat time on the clock. The offense can get a free shot to go down the field and if the result is good they can decline the penalty, or spike the ball to stop the clock and then take the penalty.

He handed the Patriots some rope to see what they would do with it. 8 seconds was a long time to try to make a play. If they would have noticed, they could have spiked the ball, gotten the penalty and a stop on the clock.

The penalty is five yards per player over 11. so 13 players is a ten yard penalty, 14 players is fifteen yards, and so on.

Whenever this penalty occurs with less than 2 minutes (or another time allotment if necessary), the time is put back on the clock.

If these two aspects of the rule were adopted, it would never be in a team’s interest to have more than 11 players.

End of story.

This rule has got to be changed this offseason. It is going to become a fad like “icing the kicker” and now that everyone is talking about it, the know-it-all-media will be criticizing coaches for NOT employing this tactic.

just line up two d-ends on the offensive side of the ball…if the quarterback isn’t smart enough to immediately take a knee, he could waste 3 or 4 seconds dropping back before he gets sacked. it should be on the offense to recognize the situation and adjust accordingly.

No…you can’t lineup defensive players on the offensive side…This is called unabated to the quaterback. the play is whistled dead and the five yards are tacked on..No time would be run off the clock if the clock was stopped.

Umm.. ya it does. How about when the defense jumps offsides and the offense gets a ‘free play’.

18-1 = loss
9-7 = SB x2!

Ahhh, 2sausage, I LOVE how this game is destroying you!! This is almost as much fun as winning the game. 1) You know nothing about football. You predicted Ocho Noshow would be the MVP of the Super Bowl and that NE would destroy the Giants 2) The Pats committed the same exact penalty earlier in the game while the Giants were driving to score 3) No proof at all it was intentional 4) NY will take the * when NE forfeits all three of their Super Bowl wins and hands the Lombardi trophies over to the opposing teams. After all, the Commish destroyed all the evidence of NE’s videotaping, so we all know it had to be really dirty for the NFL to destroy all the evidence. Your misery is so much fun after the last 2 weeks of your incessant trolling. Rarely does life punish an assclown such as yourself as quickly and as effectively as this.
========================
LOL you think this is destroying me. I posted this for all the Pats haters that can’t get over the past 10yrs of NE dominance. Yes I trash talked sue me. I took it like a MAN and said congrats. The way you follow my posts makes it look like you have a man crush on me. The answer to your next question is NO i won’t date you

Didn’t watch the game did you? Yes, it’s completely plausible that the Giants spent all season working on having another defender drive his helmet into JPP’s head and neck at full speed in order to “fake” an injury. The only thing that could have been “faked” on that injury was whether JPP really passed the concussion test. If you want to debate that, then you may be onto something.

This overreaction by the media and the masses because of 1 play a year is getting out of hand. If they’re going to put time back on the clock for this, then you need to also do it for every defensive penalty, because they all have the same net effect on the clock. A D-lineman jumps offside and the QB thinks “free play” – he doesn’t think “I should take a knee because otherwise, it’ll use up clock.”

Also if the pass had been completed the Pats would have declined the penalty and we wouldn’t even be having this discussion.

If they don’t do something to close the hole on this one Belicheat will be using it non-stop.

oh you mean like Coughlin and Chili did?

So, if the play starts with 39 secs left, the offensive team gets the result of the play or a 5 yard advance & the next play starts with 49 seconds on the clock.

If the officials see more than 11 on the field at the snap, blow it dead, just like a false start. 5 yards.

If the officials don’t see it at the snap, then it’s 15 yards. And if it’s in the last two minutes, put the time back on the clock if it’s not noticed until after the play begins.

You want to penalize the team for the ref not seeing it right at the snap? That doesn’t make any sense.

So you’re making it even worse on the offending team based on if the officials see it or not? That doesnt seem to make sense. Look at all the other calls the officials DO see and STILL get wrong.

And no, I’m not a Giants fan.
