We're not talking about a 14 point deficit with 30 seconds remaining. This was a 7 point game. As long as there's time on the clock the Bucs still had a chance.
How about this, Giants, block like you mean it. Play like the game hasn't ended yet and protect your quarterback. And if you can't do that then get your QB out of there and put in the backup.
And I don't want to hear the crap about how someone might get hurt on the final play. There are inherent risks to the game. If you don't want to assume those risks then take up tennis.

That's a fanboy response. You don't have millions invested. You don't have your livehood at stake like the players do. (go spend some time with a former OL, DL, or LB and watch them struggle just to sit down. They'll tell you what getting hurt on a meaningless down is all about)
Show me one situation around the league where a team took a knee just before halftime and the opponent blew it up....
You can't. Because that's not how the game's played.
You don't like it, come up with the skills to get signed to play in this arena and change the game so the fans won't be 'cheated" out of their "entertainment value".
Until then........feel free to tell me how it is fromn a fan's point of view....
I'll continue to give you the player's side....
