We got extremely lucky officiating calls

That hit on Funchess was nasty and helmet to helmet. 

There was no helmet to helmet hit. Hell, there really wasn't much of a "hit" at all. The refs missed plenty of holds on them throughout the game and those two incompletions they called for us where bullshit, so I don't feel the least bit guilty about being the beneficiary of a generous flag, but that's exactly what this was. I'd be pissed if this was called against us. It's not a foul.

There were awful missed calls going both ways.  Blatant calls. The only thing that could be argued is the bad call on the hit to funchess’ head was at a more critical point in the game but Boger is easily the worst official I’ve ever seen.  I wouldn’t say we were handed this game at all, there were a few awful ref decisions that ended drives of ours too.

Yes, it was helmet to helmet and it was illegal.  Could you imagine if every player went for the ball like that with no regard for anyone around them?  Everybody would be unconscious by the end of the game.

And cmc got that last first down. The graphic was wrong (the second or third time that happened in the game). Ball broke the plane of the first down by half a ball length.

they both made helmet contact with funchess but i agree this isn't a call they make every week

One thing we aren't getting caught up in is the silly roughing the passer penalty drama.  You actually have to have defenders get close enough to the QB to make contact for that flag to be thrown, so we're good there.

I want to laugh but it's also painful.

They screwed both teams a few times.  It balanced out by games end.  

It was awful. The hit on Funch did not deserve a flag, the guy was playing the ball! on the other hand, Thomas caught that pass that RR had to burn a challenge on.

The Giants defender did hit Funchess helmet, but it was more incidental than anything.  

CMC most likely did pick up the first down.  It was close but the ball got to where the yellow line was on TV.  That is assuming the yellow line was correct.  I was hoping they would call for a review though, to stop the clock.  But we didn't need it.

So, let me get this straight. The NFL supposedly gave a game to the team who has a starter who kneels and is currently suing the them? Lol. Way to many entitled ass grown men in this fan base. Lucky? There was an entire fuging football game played right? Smh.

NYG were getting away with blatant holding for the better part of the game.  I was kind of stunned how bad the officiating was in that regard.    

[DeAngelo Beason]

Both teams got calls, but we definitely got them when it mattered most.  Bad officiating is basically the reason we won, and that leaves a bad taste in my mouth.  We should have destroyed those losers.

I heard the hit on TV so it must have sounded vicious on the field...likely influenced that call

I didn't hear it, but I was talking, so will take your word for it.  

 

Ref's are human and make mistakes, I do think that was one.  Of course, I probably wouldn't be saying that if a similar call went against the Panthers.  lol

There is no incidental helmet to helmet contact against a receiver. And he wasn't the primary defender defending the pass. He came in the play from the side to dislodge the ball and hit Funchess with his helmet. It wasn't incidental it was intentional and gets called all the time.  If you hit a receiver with your helmet while he is turned to the ball and not seeing or expecting the hit it is illegsl and should be called. From what I saw it wasn't even close.
