Just saw it. The coach smiles about blocking a run back on the field during a thanksgiving name. Kind of evil.

No one believes he didn't know he was standing in the white and actually had a foot on the field for a few seconds.

I can hear him "I wondered who that guy was at the side line as I watched the big screen. Hey, it was me."

Elias Sports Bureau notes that Austin is just the fourth player since 1960 to have rushing, receiving and punt-return touchdowns of at least 60 yards in the same season.
St. Louis just used Austin to pass. Pretty fun to watch.

Last two minutes of Redskins game:

They throw a long ball after thinking they made the first down (as one official calls it). The receiver fumbles the ball, which they call it a incomplete pass. They rush back to the line where officials now tell them it's 4th and 1. RGIII continues to save time by rushing the play, makes a complete pass to a receiver who gets the ball ripped out of his hands by a defensive back. End of game.

Not much after the game, the camera zoomed in on a prayer circle made by both Giants and Redskins.


WTF?

Really bad job by the refs. They should have let it go once they acted on their call (showing a first). The ref want to blame the chain crew but

Shanahan said he had asked for a measurement following Garcon's catch. However, Shanahan said an official told him it wasn't necessary.

"He said, 'You don't have to, it's a first down,' " Shanahan said. "I saw it as a first down on the other side and he signaled to move the chains on our side. I asked him if it was fourth down. He said he already told me it was a first down. ... Then, after I saw it was fourth down I asked him, 'You already told me it was first down.' That was quite disappointing."

"We just didn't shut it down in that situation because that would have given an unfair advantage."

When the pool reporter asked about the misleading conversation Shanahan had with the sideline official, Triplette declined comment.

So the unfair advantage was given to the other team. Got it.
