I hate the pass call. It doesn't make any sense. The clock

stopped @2:01, which means that the Pats have 1 TO left plus 2 minute warning even the TD stood.  The Giants had to do 2 point conversion (less than 50% success rate league-wide) if they wanted to have a 7 point lead.  It gave the Pats too much time to tie the game up or to win if the 2 point conversion failed.

I would call three consecutive running plays to kill the clock & consumed the Pats' last TO.  It would leave around 1:15 to Tom Brady before kicking the field goal.....big difference.

The Giants had several misuses on the last 2 minutes.

On offense: 1. the WR ran out the bound, which the clock stopped at 2:10;  2. not calling one running play & I have no idea what they did on the second down.

On defense: 1. dropping the easy interception;  2. giving 5 yard cushion on the Pats' last pass.

On Beckham TD.  It was on him.  He should have it if he had two hand holding onto the ball.  Normally a WR would grab the ball from the air & put the ball toward the chest to secure the ball.  Instead, OBJ tried to show off his one-hand TD catch after he caught the ball.  He is still young & he should learn to put the team ahead when the game is on his hand.
