Monday night time’s sport between the 10-2 and 2-10 groups went simply as we anticipated.
The New England Patriots received their tenth consecutive sport to cap Week 13, defeating the New York Giants (2-11), 33-15. This is our speedy response to a “Monday Evening Soccer” blowout.
Key takeaway: The Giants have given up
There isn’t any different method to put it. The Giants have stopped caring.
Late within the second half, whereas already trailing 27-7, interim head coach Mike Kafka elected towards going for it on a 4th-and-1, as an alternative taking a delay of sport penalty and punting to the Patriots, who marched 67 yards in 5 performs to tack on a discipline aim as time expired within the first half.
The Giants have been criticized on-line and by ESPN NFL analyst Jason Kelce for the pathetic transfer.
“You are given a chance to get some momentum going into half,” Kelce mentioned. “It is fourth-and-inches, prefer it’s barely something. I do not know why you would not attempt to get that, then get the ball popping out of half to make it a sport,” he questioned at halftime.
ESPN analyst Mina Kimes and The Athletic’s Derrik Klassen have been amongst a number of who derided the choice on social media.
