Patrots beat the spread and hit the over, while Cam played just well enough to lose.

I thought they were going to pull it out.

my 8 win outlook is looking a little strong

Can't imagine why he might have done so.

Maybe it was the way the refs gave the game away? PI on the 2pointer? Quick! Pick up the flag!

It was anything but quick.

And it was the right call, based on the ball's hitting the defender.

But it's you, so complaining that the refs screwed up combined with the oh-so-original-of-you tying that to the BOSTON team is boringly predictable.

Bad call. Pointing out reality, while you live in denial.

Curious of the process

Was it

"let me throw the flag then ask what everyone else thinks?"

it was an iffy-close call.

But IMO the right one.

the problem was Danny threw to the wrong back-shoulder-the defender's.

I think he might have gotten the call if he led Dion Lewis.

Giants should have drafted Winfield Jr instead of Xavier McKinney.

After seeing the instant replay it appears the flag shouldn't have been thrown.  But once it was I expected it to go to the replay booth and not an on-field huddle.  I think a Tom Brady team would've gotten that courtesy and then after review they might decide not to overturn the call because hey its Tom Brady.

But i'm biased.  In the end they made the right call.  DJ has to get that ball out quicker.  He is getting killed in Giants world today by fans who used to have his back.  Not just for the late throw but for the continued interceptions instead of throwing the ball away.  He isn't learning from mistakes.

Giants fans have started to throw in the towel on DJ.  I haven't but most are ready to take Fields or obviously Lawrence.  DJ now needs to play well enough (WIN) to make those selections impossible.

They don't do video replays of possible penalties.

I too once met a girl in Central Park, but it is not much to remember. What I remember is the time John Wayne killed three men with a carbine as he was falling to the dusty street in Stagecoach, and the time the kitten found Orson Welles in the doorway in The Third Man.
