If they 'threw' the game because they felt 'sorry', then that doesn't bode well for your team. They are pros. They are paid to play. They are paid to win. They can't afford to 'throw' games.

Long story short: they were utterly outclassed on Sunday. On offense AND defense.

I was there...but the skins did not show up. Their heads and bodies were not in the game. Their receivers/backs dropped 10 passes thrown into their hands in the first half. They missed tackle after tackle. My feeling is that they (unconciously) decided that they were not going to come into Giants Stadium and beat the g-men the week of The Duke's death.

My son-in-law is a Virginia boy and lifelong skins' fan. I called him after the game and told him that his real team did not play that game. Just my 2 cents.
