Defensive lineman Brett Keisel says that he read Eli Manning’s lips in the huddle before the fourth down rushing attempt by Brandon Jacobs. Incidentally, Jacobs was stuffed at the goal line.
“I was watching Eli’s lips the whole time and I saw him say, ‘32,’ so I went over and tried to tell everyone, ‘It’s right here,’ and we stopped it,” Keisel said. “That was a big play in the game.”
Keisel correctly guessed that the Giants would run behind G Chris Snee.
“I’m guessing it’s the 2-drop, which is right off center-guard,” Keisel said. “And that’s the play they ran and we stopped them. I’m proud of our defense. Our defense played their tails off.”
