Not sure if you realized that. Anyway, I got us holding them to a more than respectable 20 points. You have them scoring 16. So not sure what your gripe is about that part of the prediction. I'm simply saying we don't have enough weapons outside Thomas and Kamara to get the job done tonight. |

We held them to 10 points tonight and it was possible cause they didn't look all that great against one of the worst teams in the league last week. |

Re: Predict the score vs Dallas
Agreed. We do not function on similar intellectual planes. Given that, humor me please; shift gears away from ad hominem and towards football.
Garbage time assumes one team is padding stats for the sake of stats in no hope of changing the outcome of the game. That doesn't happen with a single digit differential which is where the majority of the Dallas Redskins game was. New York had 321 yards of offense in the first three quarters. Did they give up before the first quarter? No.. not garbage time. If you read the gamebooks you will see that only 13 of Barkley's 120 yards, and 80 of Manning's 306 passing yards came in the 4th Qtr. So... none of the stats I stated were garbage stats. |
