NextImg:Giants’ ‘terrible clock management’ costs them points on final first-half play vs. Bills

The Giants left three points on the field Sunday, failing to score in the final seconds of the first half against the Bills.

Up 6-0, the Giants had the ball at the 1-yard line with first-and-goal and no time outs remaining and 14 seconds on the clock.

Quarterback Tyrod Taylor appeared to audible at the line of scrimmage and handed the ball off to running back Saquon Barkley, who was stuffed at the line.

The Giants tried to hurry into formation to get off one final play, but the clock expired before the ball could be snapped.

So in trying to go for a quick touchdown to end the half, the Giants don’t even walk away with a field goal.

NBC Sports play-by-play announcer Mike Tirico called it like it was, saying “that was terrible, terrible clock management. … That’s awful.”

As he was saying that, the broadcast cameras showed a clearly agitated Brian Daboll walking to the locker room in a heated conversation with Taylor.

NBC Sports analyst Cris Collinsworth agreed, saying “on the goal line, you can’t do that. …that is unbelievable. Unbelievable.”

Tirico closed the conversation, “You gotta get points there.”

Hopefully it won’t come back to haunt the Giants in the second half.
