Uncalled for? I'm not saying anyone getting hurt was called for but if you are refering to close to our last play of the game when Samuels was blocking then wrapped an arm around the waste of the defender and as they
both were falling Samuels accidently fell on the legs of the defender...if you look at it closely you can see the defenders legs get crossed and when Samuels falls he falls on both legs. It was not intended. Samuels was trying to slow the defender and yes he did hold him when he put his arm around his waste. The injury was not a cheap shot.
I will say I was getting mad at the refs for not getting control of the game and not putting
both teams in check. I was getting tired of all the extra activity after the plays. I think it was the first series the Giants had after the RB Jacobs made a run he got up and started walking back to the huddle and walked through several Skins players and finally shoved one. The tension never stopped cause the refs never took control. both sides are at fault with this. I'm not sure who was at fault with the Pierce having his helmet ripped off his head but both would not let go of eithers face mask and kept shoving each other. I did not agree with the play callers who said our man should have been penalized on that play cause he "head butted." He didn't head but Pierce walked into it. When your helmets of you don't go pushing your head into the fray.
