This was my latest game and what a game it was! I jumped out to a quick lead as Manning threw 3 picks. On 2 he was just off on his throws. 1 came when he tried to through high and my DB was able to go up with the WR and come down with the pass. It was 24-3 at the half.
I was thinking this was all jacked up and was one of those crazy wildcard games that show up every now and then.
The second half quickly saw things turn around. On DEF I called for a run up the middle on 3rd & 1. Manning play actioned and hit Cruz wide open past my DB who took a step forward before he realized it was a play action. 24-10.
On my next possession NYG was able to stop my 2 rushing attempts for little yards. On 3rd & 7 I threw a slant to Dez. The ball was tipped at the line and Cromartie came down with the interception and ran it in for the TD. 24-16 (they missed on the 2pt try)!
Now I'm getting very nervous. a couple more stalled drives and into the 4th we go.
NYG manages a couple more drives that get 2 FGs. 25-24. I can't get anything going. They're shutting down my run game and knocking down passes or punching them out just as they get to receivers.
I get the ball back for one last drive. with 2 TOs and 55 seconds from my 25 I try to get into FG range. I manage to get to around my 35 with 1 TO left. on 3rd down I hit Dez down the left side. He goes up and out jumps Cromartie, coming down with the ball on NYG's 26. TO 7 seconds!
Bailey lines up... TO NYG!
After the TO we line up and BAM! Straight through the uprights!!!
27-25 win!
If all the games play out like this I'm going to need to get on blood pressure medicine.
