Lotta Fucked Shit At End of WFT-NYG

These standalone weeknight prime time games keep getting crazier. First, we had Bucs-Cowboys, then Monday’s insane OT ending between the Raiders and Ravens, and now this Giants-Washington game has an ending that was filled with so many insane turns of events we just started calling it “fucked shit”.

The biggest takeaway from the game is not only is Daniel Jones the best rushing QB in the league but he is also living up to his name of Danny Dimes. He doesn’t look as panicked as he did in seasons passed and put together a lot of great drives and had full control of the offense. So many huge Danny Jones plays were taken away by “Fucked Shit” be it a dropped pass or a penalty and if it wasn’t for that Giants would have won that game. 

Throws like this one show the QB isn't only good at lucky runs.

Heinicke if you may have remembered was the QB who was shotgunning seltzer’s in the locker room after XFL games. In the game, he made some great throws and made huge plays when it counted. He also made some dumb plays to put him in the position to make great plays but some guys play better from behind so they put themselves there.

Saquon had a good run but was unimpressive throughout. Still coming back from an injury like that it’s going to take time for him to trust his instincts and really start going hard and making an impact. This actually resulted in Giants Fullback getting more carries.

The ending of the game was insanity. The Giants were stopped on two crucial drives and had to either punt or settle for field goals. A game-sealing touchdown was dropped by a wide-open Slayton. Jones and Slayton were a crucial one-step off. 

Heinicke comes back to answer with a 2 play touchdown drive to put the whole game in Jeopardy.

The Giants get stopped once again leaving the Redskins to just run out the clock. Then disaster strikes.

Giants kick a field goal and go up by 2 leaving the Redskins to barely get into field goal range with 10 seconds on the clock.

I will let last night's live stream tell the rest of the story after they line up for the field goal to win or lose the game.

Yes, that was a missed game-winning field goal, a penalty to wipe out that field goal, and then a game-winner to follow it up. 

Absolute heartbreaker. The amount of fucked shit that happened from the time Danny Jones's run got called back, wide-open drop, interception, and then the double kick was just a reminder why we watch.
