Redskins vs. Giants – Fourth Quarter Thoughts

And, of course, it gets worse.
Of course it does.
Like in Atlanta, a fight breaks out. Like in Atlanta, DeAngelo Hall is in the middle of it. Unlike in Atlanta, his teammates come over to help out. Unlike in Atlanta, punches are thrown — big, boxing-style haymakers, by guys on both sides of the skirmish. Like in Atlanta, only Albert Haynesworth is penalized.
And then, just because that wasn’t insult enough, the Giants drive down for a touchdown on the series — a series that was given new life by the penalty on Haynesworth. On the ensuing kickoff, the Giants players came out whooping it up, bouncing up and down and egging on the crowd. It was as blatant a display of … not disrepect, exactly, but flat-out disregard for the remaining Redskins fans.
Not that it mattered; the next drive ended on yet another Campbell interception, at which point David Carr came into the game for the Giants. It’s hard to imagine a much more damning indictment of your defensive performance than the entry of David Carr to the football game. (Well, no it isn’t: the worse indictment is David Carr entering the game and immediately throwing a long touchdown pass. Or a short touchdown pass. Or just looking good in general. And at least that one final indignity was avoided. Didn’t feel like many other indignity stones were left unturned.)
I’m sure the locker room will be a non-stop cavalcade of hilarity.
