I was fine with the field goal. The issue was not handing off to Rashad Jennings on third down. Also, Manning snapped the ball at 20 seconds on a play that drive (after the ref kept asking the play clock to be reset).

Ok, well you are wrong. The FG is a terrible decision. Its not really any harder to score a TD off of a kickoff than it is to get a FG from the 1. Not to mention a FG doesn't beat you and you have an over 50% chance of basically ending the game right there.

Its very very stupid.
