Brian Daboll has been everything the Giants hoped he would be in his first season as head coach. He not only got them to the postseason, but led them to their first playoff win since 2011.
Their season is coming to an end Saturday night in Philadelphia where they trail the Eagles (as of this writing) 31-7 midway through the fourth quarter.
While Daboll has been great this season, his decision to punt the ball away in the fourth quarter while trailing by 21 points was an interesting decision and it appeared like he was giving up and waving the white flag.
How do you not go for it here?

Seriously, what do you have to lose?
NFL fans were not impressed.
