Default Props to the Giants....

They played great beat us at the last minute against a good defense. I refuse to blame the refs or the coaches because despite all that this game was winnable for the Broncos. I hate Mannings even more now that we lost this game but I also have alot of respect for both QBs. So Giant fans heres to kicking the crap out of the redskins to help us with that draft pick.

I would hope that most games in which we have a 10 point lead in the 4th quarter are "winnable".

Very good game by the Giants. They won.

I on the otherhand am not big enough to shake the refs. The phantom calls/"no calls" are going to bug me for the next day or 2.

Im not a player but if i was, i would be extremely mad at playing my hardest and none of it mattering because of a few bad calls.

The Giants did earn their W. I'm glad Denver doesn't have to play the Giants again in Meadowlands for another 8 years. First, Tito Paul and now this. Two of the most gut wrenching regular season losses ever.

The Giants took advantage of what the Refs gave them.

Props to the Giants. They were the better team out there today and proved it by executing when it counted the most.

During the week i said countless times that the reason we would lose was because we were the worst team, but i can honestly say we got screwed and were the MCUH Better team today.
I hate being hypocritical, but dang!

We were the better team for about 50 minutes. If this team can ever figure out how to put an opponent away, the results would be amazing. Giants didn't quit and took advantage of everything we handed them late in the game. They got the "W" and now I'm bummin'

How were we the much better team? We went three and out when it counted the most. They drove the field under pressure and scored a touchdown. They were clearly the better team today and the scoreboard proves it.

I just wanted to point out that the dude in your avatar who's ignoring Tara Reid made the most crucial catch of the day. When Shockey made that catch, I knew it was over...

i really don't agree with that statement. broncos played a more complete game, they just didn't win. we basically gift wrapped the game and gave it away.

we miss a fg by 6 inches on a windy field that would have won the game, and that CLEARLY proves they were the better team? please explain

For probably the 1st time ever I'm gonna disagree with you TJ. We were the better team on the day, we just could not finish them off. 2 weeks ago Washington were the better team and lost against us. It happens in this game but what is more gut-wrenching is the way it happened.

I just hope the players recover from this a lot better than us fans are.

The thing is that when you lose a game by 1 point on a TD with 5 seconds to go, you can pick at scabs all day. If the offense had made one more first down, if the defense had stopped one more play, if special teams had converted one more FG, if the refs had made one more call in our favor or one less against us, etc. then we would have won.

But we didn't.

Live and learn and move on.
