What's sad is the Giants should be running away with this game. And now a fumble by the Vikings on the return...lol
How do the refs determine if a play was giving themselves up vs fumbling while hitting the ground untouched?
Clearly down. Ground caused the fumble. He went down and "gave himself up" If they give this to the Vagiants...how about all those times Giant players went down and gave themselves up and put the ball down...other team recovers...refs gives ball back to the Vag's Victor Cruz in Arizona 2011
for it to be ruled giving yourself up, it should be clear like taking a knee in the open field if you just go down like that, I don't think you can rule it giving yourself up, vs. say tripping the giants of course were the beneficiaries of two blown calls regarding this rule, when they got to keep the ball
A former NFL all-pro agrees with you... Steve Hutchinson @poisonpill76 2m This is the worst sporting event ever broadcasted
From now on, the Giants should just take a knee every play with a two possession lead. They would probably win
We obliterated him three years ago, other than the busted coverage on the 99-yard TD Eli was like 10-26 for zip yardage.
Yeah that's what I was wondering, if one would go against them. I think this was a clear fumble situation, but just one of those strange circumstances where the refs could cancel it
