    Redskins finally on the board.

    Giants up 16-7 with 13 seconds left in the half. Seems like it should be a bigger lead

    We need better execution in the red zone. Gotta agree with Madden (how often can you say that?): we were too conservative at the end of the last couple drives.

    why do the redskins keep running passing plays short of the first down marker on third down?

    How have the Giants allowed the Redskins to stay in this game?

    Conservative playcalling.

    That was such a dumb decision by Pierce

    The Redskins are lucky that wasn't a pick 6

    The Redskins are ignorant, speed up the pace of the game. They've wasted an extra minute they could have had.

    What an idiotic pass on 3rd down. Seriously, what's up with this Washington offense? It's making it so easy for the Giants.

    This game is so over with that conservative throw on fourth down.

    What a lame ass game. You think the NFL could have picked a better match up to start the season off with?

    For Giants' fans, I hope that last injury wasn't as bad as it looked.

    I laugh at the McDougle posts. You guys better hope he gets cut sometime this season, because he's just one penalty away from losing you the NFC Championship game.

    Anyways, I didn't really watch the entire game, but the Giants d-line impressed me. They did better than I thought they would. The Foreskins lost, not surprised. They're gonna suck balls this year.

    I have to strongly agree. I understand putting the Giants on there (sort of a tradition) but they should have put the Cowboys or Steelers.

    Steelers vs. Giants would've been a great game. Roethlisberger and Manning face each other for the first time and both teams are pretty evenly stacked up.

    The Redskins are just a mess though. The Giants looked good in the first half, but the Skins beat themselves in the second. Zorn looked out of his league.

    Yeah, you guys looked great to start the game, but then your offense stalled. I think that could be a thing to watch all season; how your offense produces. Eli didn't really do anything to hurt you guys minus the pick, but he didn't really do much to help you. It's only week 1, so I don't want to be overly critical.

    Washington, on the other hand, their offense looks like a mess. I wonder how long it'll be before they start clicking. They looked bad their last two pre-season games and like Madden said, it carried right into tonight.
