The New York Giants blew a sure win over the Dallas Cowboys Sunday night by horribly mismanaging the end of the game. In addition to calling the wrong play on 3rd-and-goal from the 1-yard line, the G-Men apparently also gave up an opportunity to take a two-possession lead with less than two minutes remaining.
On Monday, Giants running back Rashad Jennings revealed that he was told not to score on consecutive plays inside the Cowboys’ 5-yard line late in the fourth quarter.
“On the first-down play, I was told, ‘Rashad, don’t score,'” Jennings told Dan Graziano of ESPN.
