The Giants were alerted to the onside kick possibility. Akers executed a perfect onside kick. Akers is exceptional at onsides kicks. A tremendous play for the Eagles.
The Giants defense was tired and Vick got hot at the right time for Philly. But any other kicker gets the team into overtime. If they lose in OT, so be it. But at least regroup and play the OT.
The season is not lost but the Giants must play Green Bay next week for the last wildcard slot. After this emotional loss, Coughlin will earn is worth by getting the team to pull themselves together and win in Green Bay. If not all will be lost.
After last weeks circus which ended in Detroit, the Giants were well prepared and had the game well in hand.
I'll be impressed by Coughlin, if the team is ready next week. Let's not forget that Coughlin rallied the Giants to a Super Bowl 3 years back.
Let's go Giants.
