Tom Coughlin not happy with Rodgers-Cromartie's celebration on way to end zone (VIDEO)

Tom Coughlin was more than happy to see Giants cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie pick off a Matt Cassel pass and take it into the end zone Sunday. 


But the head coach wasn’t exactly thrilled with how Rodgers-Cromartie held the ball up high in celebration 45 yards from the goal line while a bunch of Cowboys were still giving chase down the sideline.

“I tried to get him to not hold the ball up in the air with a guy running 4.3 behind him,” Coughlin said. “I just mentioned it to him and he agreed.”

Rodgers-Cromartie's 58-yard pick-6 did put the Giants up 17-13 during the third quarter of the 27-20 victory, but the premature finger-waving might have been a little presumptuous.

Or maybe DRC was just signaling a medic for the referee who was taken out on the sideline by a Cowboys player during the play:

In the second quarter of the Commonwealth Cup between Virginia and Virginia Tech, 295-pound defensive tackle David Dean grabbed a deflected pass hanging in the air and rumbled into the end zone for the score and a 13-10 Cavaliers lead.

And who says fat men can't jump.

Eli Manning pouts after pick-six interception (GIF)

New York Giants’ Eli Manning did a lot of pouting Sunday night. But none was more obvious than the pick-six that cost his Giants the game.

This self-loathing came after his late fourth-quarter interception that was returned by Brandon Carr 49 yards for a touchdown to ice the Cowboys’ victory. Manning threw three interceptions  in Sunday's 36-31 loss to the 'Boys but his teammates' three other miscues only added to his frustration.



Here's  Eli Manning’s little tantrum after the final minute interception that helped Cowboys ice the win over Giants.
