Judge explains first-quarter timeout

The Giants took a strange timeout Sunday with :12 left in the first quarter. Judge explained Monday that the Giants thought the quarter was going to expire without them needing to run a play. By the time they were informed that would not be the case, it was too late to get a play called.

“So the play clock and the game clock were really what looked like in sync. Both were ticking down, 25, 24 at the same time, so we were just going to go to the second quarter and at about 15 seconds, (Referee) Brad (Allen) turned to me and said, ‘Hey, you’re going to need to snap this ball,’ “ Judge said.
