Many of them were to the back shoulder of his receivers, which are tough passes to defend.
[link widoczny dla zalogowanych] didn’t seem too bothered by what appeared to be a minor ankle sprain that knocked him out of the game in the second half. It’s the same ankle that had him questionable for the game against the Colts in Week 2. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]said he would have returned if the score wasn’t 38-0 at the time.
Eventually, things worked out for Boss, who was a game-day captain today. He finally found the end zone on a crossing pattern at the back of the end zone when a rolling Eli Manning squeezed the ball between a pair of defenders. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
With excellent protection by his shuffling offensive line, Manning completed 21 of 32 passes for 290 yards and three touchdowns.
Instead, the Corvallis, Ore., native opened with a fumble — his first one since his first game in college at Western Oregon.
OL Adam Koets, an Oregon State grad who also had a decent-sized gathering in the crowd, left the game with a knee injury.
“I thought he was really sharp,” coach Tom Coughlin said. “He made some outstanding throws.”
Giants TE Kevin Boss overcomes early fumble, scores touchdown in win over Seahawks
“Second fumble of my life,” the Giants’ tight end said today after the team’s 41-7 blowout of the Seahawks. “I guess if I wouldn’t have done that, we probably would have won (4-to-whatever it was.”
“I’m hoping it’s okay,” Koets said. “It didn’t really hurt that much.”
Manning has been known to take care of his targets by looking for them in the end zone when they’re due for touchdowns — while ahead by significant margins, of course. He did it in Houston to make sure Steve Smith didn’t feel slighted by Hakeem Nicks’ three-touchdown day, and he did it for Boss in front of a crowd of about 100 family members and friends.
“We didn’t talk about it, but I’m sure he was probably trying to look my way,” said Boss, who has 11 touchdowns combined in the past two seasons. “Being the guy he is, he was maybe trying to help me out a little bit. ... I’ll be honest, I wanted one pretty bad today,[link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just for the fans and the family who were here. It was pretty special.” [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
“That’s something (between) a wide receiver and quarterback, when they’re on the same page” [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]said. “You know going into the game the defender likes to play over the top, so you practice that back-shoulder throw.”
SEATTLE — Kevin Boss was hoping his homecoming would begin with his first touchdown since last season. [link widoczny dla zalogowanych]
Said Manning: “He’s always been great for us down in the red zone scoring touchdowns, and it was good to get him back in there.”
