PrintUKRedskin was unable to record the Redskins game this past week, so yours truly will be filling in this week. I know I can't compare to his screenshot breakdowns, so I plan on keeping this very simple (much like how St. Megan has to lay out Ken Meringolo's work clothes every morning).
- OJ Atogwe's diving interception on London Fletcher's deflection. This was the Giants second play from scrimmage after Grossman's TD pass to Tana.
- DeAngelo Hall's interception and 26-yard return on Eli's deep pass to Hakeem Nicks. This was the Giants opening drive out of the half.
- Josh Wilson's redzone interception on Eli Manning. This was the Giants first drive of the 4th quarter after Gano's FG to make it 23-3.
- Ryan Kerrigan's sack on 4th and 12 in our own redzone. There was 9:00 minutes left in the game at this point.
- Redskins offense - Redskins had the ball a whopping 35:00 minutes and their 8-15 third down efficiency kept our defense off the field for long stretches. Redskins had 8 rushing first downs and 9 passing first downs.

I voted Josh WIlson but mean OJ
sad thing is, it rivals Polamalus from a couple years ago yet got not an ounce of media attention
Counting cards isn't illegal. It's frowned upon, like masturbating on an airplane.
Voted for the Offense.
When was the last time our offense helped our D. It’s been a while. Lot’s of 3rd down conversions.
HTTR!
Great post Kevin

OJ's pick was a thing of beauty
Wilson’s spina-a-rooney was a close second
"And you can pass it to someone you never met, and let 'em get as high as you...you're eyes red as sh*t, mine too"
Kerrigan!
His sack ended the competitive part of the game even with 9 mins to go. It kept the game at a 3-score difference which means, barring any Sexy Rexy meltdown (which is NEVER barred), it meant the GI-ants had to score 2 TDs and a FG in about 6:30 if they stop Skins on 3 and outs the rest of the way. They didn’t.
But from an athletic stand point OJ’s get was unreal, so was Josh’s footwork on his. DHall bringing up the rear on this one.
I went with Wilson
Mostly because he had a hell of an overall game. But a redzone INT is huge.
Side note: UKRedskin’s breakdown = $50.00 Steak
Kevin’s breakdown = $1.00 Corndog
I guess we’ve been spoiled by UK’s pieces.
I want to get high, so high. I want to get high, so high. Sleepy, Silverback, and I are going to roll a blunt if anyone wants to join us.
All 3
interceptions were great, but had to vote for the end zone int. Defense as a whole was A-1.
Also, ST and offense very impressive. We better keep it up vs. Minn. or they will do to us what we did to the giants…

No love for Rexy's punting arm?
Made Sav drool on the sidelines, it did.

Voted for Hall
They were all daggers, but any (false) optimism left in the stadium disappeared then and there.
What a nice choice to make though! We beat them like a ginger step-child.

They were all great.
The part I like best about the game was the stunned silence of the Giants fans in the stadium. That shit was quiet as a mouse.
