Having seen the replay a few times, there is no way the Giants were ready for an onside kick. Did you even watch the game?

Geez Ralph, you could let a guy know he might snort his coffee out!
Put "coffee alert" in the title or something.

Yes, I'm a Giants fan. The fact is their record is pretty fraudulent. They have not beaten a team I'd consider better than mediocre outside of maybe the Bears all year, and they lost the QB that game.
Yesterday was a total collapse. You don't take a 21 point lead and then give up a 65 yard touchdown down the middle of the field with 7 minutes left. There is no excuse for that. And, that was only the first of many blunders.

key area here is "could" and the "guarantee" part will have to stay on hold.
Oh sure, now you say "Nodody cares if the kick went out of bounds", but let him come up with a 20 yarder and then might you have been on his caes?
Man-oh-man, i've seen the very best of them (not cj, i'll admit) miss a one/three pointer from 3 to 30 yards out and that's with a holder, an exact spot, with more pressure to boot.

There were 12 seconds left and the Eagles had no time outs. 20 yards would have been fine.
The fact is the guy should have been replaced a long time ago. He has been terrible all year long.

Ok ok ok , i'll buy into that "should have been done".
Basic, a man kicks a football and has 10 others to tackle between 80 some yards, somebody else should get a train ticket, my thought.

The Epidemic was in the forth q, that did happen.
When You said "PERIOD", in my mind, that brought you back to playing Vidio (as stated in my first post). Only because Aint no "PERIOD ", unless you are talking to yourself.

Coughlin is a good coach, his shortcomings are his clock management. Poor play calling led to this epic collapse, it had nothing to do with the punter at the end of the game. TC has to get better at learning to RUN the ball when he has a huge lead and not letting Eli run around like a chicken without a head tossing passes that his receivers are going to lay on the ground. Run the ball 3 plays, milk the play clock down to the end and punt. If they would have done that, they would have won the game.

yeh now i see it. here i was trying to fit in what you call an "EPIC".
i was trying to be too soft again.
I should have stated "Epic" has nothing to do with this game. Epic being a poem, but then, i dont know what you call epic.

Watched the game from beginning to the end. Also, read all the press in NYC and watched the post game interviews.
The coachs prepared the special teams for the probabilty of an onsides kick.
How well they performed or how well they listened, is another story.
You're thread is all about FIRE COUGHLIN. The coaching was there throughout the game. The players performed poorly when it counted.
As far as Aker's onsides kick, he's recognized as a genius in this regards. The Giants game will only add to his credentials.
The Giants are 9-5 and can clinch a playoff berth in GB this weekend. The coaching will hopefully lead the way.
Giants management, please don't listen to hysterical fans like CJ, definitely keep the coach.
Let's go Giants.
