Malik Neighbors, who was injured, is out for the year with an ACL injury, Put up a tweet questioning why, in a tie game, Kafka went for it rather than Taking the lead and kicking the field goal.
Again, then he deleted the Tweet.
The tweet suggested the Giants tried to lose, which Malik, You're injured.
I like it; I get that you're ticked off.
Teammates.
But if they try to lose, theyve got it better Draft pick to help you out.
Anyway.
Uh, that's the wrong way to look at it.
Uh, Frank, can it get worse for the Giants?
No, I mean, this is pretty crazy.
I just want to point out this is how it is.
Wild, the NFL can be sometimes.
Charles, I think it was you who texted the group.
The replay of Jake Bates' field goal, which moved like I've never seen, It was like a Paul Sken slider.
Like it was, It was going way wide, right, and it just takes a left turn and goes in.
Like it was one of the most miraculous field goals Ive ever seen in my life to tie game.
If Jake Bates misses that, if that thing just keeps going to the right, Like most physicists say it should, what are we talking about today?
We're talking about, like, Mike Kafka, can he be the permanent head coach?
He just went into Detroit with his third quarterback and beat the Lions.
Like, oh my God, like, now Jake Bates makes that field goal.
Which was as crazy as I've ever seen a field goal again.
In a dome.
They wait.
In a dome.
Unbelievable.
They go into overtime; they lose Jamir Gibbs, who's unbelievable.
Right?
Like he breaks off a long run, and now it's Like Malik, Neighbors blasted coaching staff and defensive coordinators were fired, The ship is sinking.
It just blows my mind sometimes in the NFL.
The result of one play, one fluky play.
That just changes literally the entire conversation within a team, And honestly, maybe their future.
Like, I'm not saying Mike Kafka lacked a Shot to get the permanent head coaching job.
If he beats the Lions in Detroit and goes on the rest of the season and win some more games, you might see Antonio Pierce in this thing, Right?
Like, but Jake Bates makes that.
Unbelievable, Antonio Pierce; this thing!
Antonio Pierce is now a verb.
