Giants’ decision-making gets worse by the numbers
Eli Manning Photo: EPAEverybody agrees the Giants gave Dallas a shot at a miracle comeback Sunday with a couple of bad decisions: Tom Coughlin’s call to pass down on the goaline and Eli Manning opting to throw the ball away rather than take a sack (and bleed more clock). But what if it’s a third call that really cost them?
What if they’d gone for it on fourth down? It would’ve been a nervy decision from Coughlin. But should Big Blue have gone for it on fourth-and-goal from the Dallas 1 late in what turned out to be the Giants’ 27-26 loss?
Coughlin admitted there was some thought given to it.
