would Eli throw that away and stop the clock rather than fall down for a sack?

giants absolutely gave dallas that win by calling the pass play first and then manning throwing the ball away.

Agreed....Manning blew that one big time. Just go to the ground and you burn another 40 seconds.

that has to be one of the dumbest things i've seen.  as many stupid decisions as players and coaches make, you don't see many that brings the other team back from the dead and begs them to beat you.

Giants had that game won.  Run the ball and
a. TD
b. If no TD, run the clock out kick a fg no way 80 yards in 50 seconds

I mean that is just unbelievable what Eli did

These guys are supposed to be professionals. They were on the sidelines just before the third down play discussing what they were going to do. Don't you think one of the coaching staff would have mentioned....whatever you do DON'T throw the ball???? Makes one wonder.....

that's brutal.  i had dallas -6 so none of that affected me.  my bet was a loser a while ago.  it's just amazing to see veteran players and coaches make such incredibly stupid decisions.

Amazing how teams do not understand clock management. You can back further into the Giants final drive where they snapped the ball with 15+ seconds on the play clock at least twice.
