So, no disrespect to Eli, he played a great game, but don’t pretend like just because Griffin is fast on his feet doesn’t mean he can’t get the whole offense involved.

I can see on the other postings where you’ve changed your mind on Morris — I am glad you’ve had an opportunity to reassess but please do not claim that you “always respected Morris” because you have been dismissive in the past.

Throwing on 3-1 with 3:47 left! Run the ball for chrissakes! Put faith in your offense to run for a yard, get a first down and take the clock down.

Eli was not throwing well at all and missed several routes including Cruz in the endzone 1Q.

Lucky to have the win as Eli erased his mistakes with the 77 yarder to Cruz.

The kid played a good game, sure. It’s tough on the road in the NFL, especially when you’re a rookie QB, and he hung in there. I respect that. But run the NFC East for a decade? LOL, he already had a concussion this season for trying to do too much. And could have added another today on numerous occasions.

Call me crazy, but I think there is more chance that he will be injury prone in the NFC East than have a long steady dominant career from what I have seen from him thus far. Too bad for Skins fans, but that is the objective truth.

People who brag and talk trash all week always resort to that when their boasts fall short. SF fans did it last week also.

RG3 is the #3 rated passer in the league and the most accurate % passer in the league, 7 games into his career.

And that’s not taking into account what he can do with his legs.

And the 250 running yards we rolled over the Giants today was not a fluke.

We dominated the Giants twice last year and were pretty close to winning today. I don’t know how it was “the best were ever going to play ” considering we turned the ball over 4 times and had 10 points taken off the board.

Was it better than the 2 games vs. you last year where REX GROSSMAN destroyed you? How quickly you forget.

@skins23 – who is nield? The only nield I know is what Eli took to run out the clock on your team.
____________________________

That would be Chris Nield who dominated the Giants week 1 last season.

Pretty sure Giants got about 4 starters back from injury today so not sure what you guys are talkin about.

Anyways I’m not pointing to injuries for the loss but the Giants fans talking when they got handed the game need to be taken down a notch.

Hochuli is terrible. Giants holding all day. The replacements were horrible, but the regulars are still bad.

What was Paulsen doing on those big plays in the 1st half?

NO ONE

Now Rob is a great young player and it was a close game.

A bit early in his playing days to crown him king of the East.

He will be a a project but as the DC’s have more film they will figure him out.

Also as all the 4skinfans are making excuses what would your excuse have been if Eli had a good game instead of one of his worst in a long time.

Bottom line when the game is on the line champions win and they did.

And perhaps you skins fans should praise the one who kept you in the game his name is not bob but Morris that was most of your offence

No, you should just stick to congratulating without conditions attached. Especially since you were babbling all week.”

What got me started talking was the trash talk that JPP and some of those guys were throwing out there – which seemed strange to me given how 2011 went. But my point is simply this – two good teams. Good game. Congratulations on the win, don’t get overblown with it, and see you later in the season.

To the Skins fans on here crying about injuries and the refereeing, and blaming that on why you lost, just stop. You’re embarrassing yourselves. Every team has injuries. The Giants have plenty of them too. It’s not an excuse for losing. You turned the ball over four times. That’s why you lost. You let Victor Cruz run free for a 77 yd TD at the end of the game. That’s why you lost.

It was a close, hard fought game. The Giants made one more play when it counted most. That’s what it boils down to. Look forward to the next game on 12/3 in DC, under the bright lights on Monday Night Football.

Let’s hear the Giants fans talk about how great they are…. Giants are good but got bailed out again… 2 scores taken off the board for the Skins on 2 garbage penalties… plus the Bradshaw TD was a ridiculous call, he was clearly down wayyyy before the goal line…

Skins all of a sudden got a case of the dropsies, 4 turnovers and STILL got nearly 500 yards…. Giants got run over in their own house today (250 yards rushing) and can thank Hochuli’s crew for the “leg whip” and illegal motion calls that kept them in the game.

Not worried… if the Skins don’t have about 7 starters out with injury that’s a W.

The Giants have MORE starters out you dolt. Your POINT?!??!?!

That defense forced those drops and fumbles. The call on Hankerson was right. Learn the rules. Where this esoteric other “TD that was taken off the board” occurred, but if Gilbride isn’t huffing elmer’s glue, Giants win going away.

Congratulations to the classy Giants fans here who are happy but don’t try to get overhyped or rub it in. You are the reigning world champs and you have an elite clutch QB.

But to justintuckrule and any other gloaters/haters, I guess I should congratulate you for the first Giants victory over the Skins since the 2010 season. But don’t fool yourselves. Your margin of victory was just one point for each turnover the Redskins committed. After we lost one of our best offensive players. Let’s admit – this was a close game against two good, well matched teams and we will see you again shortly. Looking forward to it.

Do you really want to get into the “blame injuries” game with Giants fans? Really??

justintuckrule just mad hes gonna have to watch rg3 crush the NFCE for the next 12 years.

Skins had the following guys out: Davis , Helu, J. Brown, Garcon, Orakpo, Carriker, Merriweather, Sundberg, Nield, Jordan Bernstine, Minnifield.

Turned the ball over 4 times.

Had 10 points taken off the board on questionable (at best) calls.

Still racked up 500 yards. And it still took another Giants miracle to bail them out.

Keep talkin….

You’re really trying to pull the injury card with the team missing the most starters in FOOTBALL due to injury?

Until RG3 plays defense the Redskins will never stop a caliber opponent like the Giants. Enough said.

Keep talkin….

I’m more diappointed with Gilbride relying too much on the pass (2-1 pass versus run for our Offense) especially when it was obvious that Eli was a little off today (of course until late in the 4th Q).

Shout out to ‘Skins fans….great game, RGIII was a GREAT CHOICE…how does it feel to have the Rookie of the Year on your squad?!

Also, if the NFL had most improved team award…you gotta vote for the DC guys!
