He needed to make up for that first quarter interception he caused. That was Eli's only blemish in the playoffs that season.

 Just came across this clip and thought people might enjoy it and 'learn' something about one of the all-time great NY Giants

I remember how our best weapons was punter Dave Jennings and the D in the 70s.

You talk about godawful offenses, those mid 70s teams were as bad as you could get. Terrific players Brad Van Pelt and Brian Kelley never got the success they deserved.

My idol!

 It's funny, I remember certain things about this game. Like 3 minutes before this great kick, Sunmeral missed an easy 31-yarder.
And to get to Sumeral's kick the Giants and QB Charley Conerly missed on 3 consecutive passes trying to get the Giants closer. Even Sumeral was surprised he was sent out to attempt the FG.

What year was this? I saw #55 with the pitch throw to Jennings and I assumed it was Reasons but then I saw Rutledge on the Rams sidelines so it must have been 79-82 and #55 was Brian Kelley.
