What was that call?

Tough call against the Giants. Called the crackback block on wide receiver David Tyree...But then the officials missed a hold on Marcus Spears during Brandon Jacobs' 43-yard catch.

Someone grabbed Spears' jersey.

does it seem to anyone else that the commentators are just a little bias towards the giants?

Roy saved a touchdown by keeping Jacobs inside.

I don't think a holding penalty has been called yet in this game. They've missed a few both ways, including on the Giants TD early on.

What an absolutely amazing read of Burress' route in the end zone by Aaron Glenn. Beautiful veteran play. I wouldn't have minded if he could've gotten the pick, but he keeps the game tied rather than letting NY go ahead.

That's two dropped INT'S. James and Glenn!

Can I say it again, hopefully for the last time this game, THE DEFENSE MISSED YET ANOTHER FREE AND OPEN OPPORTUNITY TO MAKE A PLAY!!!!! This is what's called a BIG game, and if your defense cannot make plays when plays need to be made in BIG games you do NOT win those BIG games. Maybe before this BIG game is over the defense will learn this concept and make a BIG play to win this BIG game.

I counted at least three holds on that drive including a very blatant one on the Jacobs screen - maybe the officials should police the obvious stuff and let the obscure 'crackbacks' go.

Giants' playcalling is about all that is keeping the 'Boys in the game. I hope they keep up the good work...

That wasn't a crackback. Gift call, and then the Cowboys D falls asleep and gives up another big yardage play.

Was I the only one who thought the Giants DB intercepted that pass to Crayton??? Chrimany that was close.
