I only saw the 2 replays myself. I admit it was very close as you said. I think to have a clear answer we'd have to take multiple looks at it. But to say it clearly was a fumble or clearly wasn't are both wrong as it was so close. It looked like Burress didn't have full control of the ball.

Giants are playing brutal. Game over. Patriots ball.

EDIT: Giants ball. They got lucky.

everyone talks about the Pats offense, their defense was 4th in the league as well. Great stop to set the Pats up for another drive.

I agree with you. I don't like the Pats at all but their defense as just as much to do with their success as their offense this season. The offense can play the way they can because of the defense (they get great field position a lot of the time and are confident their d will make the stop).

Finally a productive Giants run. Keep Ahmad in until the Pats figure him out, as they've already done with BJ.

This has been a disappointing game so far. Two of the best quarterbacks in the game and all the offensive coordinators can do is work inside the tackles for most of the game? Hasn't come close to the hype.

Sure. But some creative offense would certainly help. Get the ball down field. If the defense continue to press 9 guys on the line of scrimmage you checkoff and start using your tightends and the backs out of the backfield. There's been little creativity shown by each team. Pretty boring.

Hey I know what you mean.

Even the Patriots offense isn't clicking.
