Players I'll always be thankful to, fleeting moment or not

Big Blue '56 : 3/27/2015 11:17 am

In no particular order and off the top of my head:

Devin Thomas

Jacquan Williams

Tyree

Tynes

Alford

Manningham

Weatherford

Not referring to the Eli's, LTs, et al, just guys who for a singular moment or game helped to bring us glory..

I'm sure you have plenty of others whom you'll forever appreciate

RB^2 : 3/27/2015 11:18 am : link

Mitchell.

McConkey for the flea flicker in XXI

Greg from LI : 3/27/2015 11:19 am : link

Reyna Thompson for being the best gunner I've ever seen in 1990.

Pierce for his superhuman play to stop that screen pass against Green Bay.

Thomas and Williams for the 2011 NFC title game.

Off the top of my head

Gap92 : 3/27/2015 11:20 am : link

McConkey
Ron Dixon
Hostetler

For starters...

Reyna Thompson...

Chris in Philly : 3/27/2015 11:21 am : link

Sam Madison

R.W. McQuarters

Mark Ingram

Kerry Collins

Gap92 : 3/27/2015 11:21 am : link

Even though the run ended in disaster, that Minnesota game was 3 of the best sports hours of my life.

And McConkey finally got his SB TD on a deflection off Bavaro

Alford

Re Hoss,

Big Blue '56 : 3/27/2015 11:27 am : link

That "save" in the endzone off the Smith sack effectively saved that SB

Gary

Jolly Blue Giant : 3/27/2015 11:29 am : link

Reasons

Sheesh, I can't believe

Big Blue '56 : 3/27/2015 11:31 am : link

put us back in the playoffs after 18 years.

Plex

Mark Ingram... Gary Reason...Seahorn

can't forgot about

Giantsfan79 : 3/27/2015 11:36 am : link

Keith Hamilton

I also have to give shout outs to

Giantsfan79 : 3/27/2015 11:39 am : link

Lomas Brown, Glenn Parker, and Rich Seubert. Brown & Parker instantly solidified that left side of the line and then Seubert held it down for years.

Great call on Ingram

Before Tyree, the greatest reception I had ever seen...

Everson Walls

Eli Wilson : 3/27/2015 11:43 am : link

Hmm

jvm52106 : 3/27/2015 11:43 am : link

Thompson (Reyna)- amazing special teams play

Kratch- part of a great clock eating oline

Headen- would have been an All-Pro on teams that didn't have Banks and Taylor

Bob Mrosko- an olinemen playing TE with a big 4th down catch against Bears and TD catch..

Ingram- best 3rd down run after catch for a critical 1st down

Matt Bahr!

Toast Patterson....

ct.fatboy1080 : 3/27/2015 11:45 am : link

Terry Jackson..Rob Carpenter, these three were EAGLE KILLERS! lets bring em back

I always thought he brought back the feeling that we always had a chance ...when he got hot it was ridiculous. threw a very pretty ball and had a cannon for an arm!

Kent Graham and Gary Brown

phil in arizona : 3/27/2015 11:48 am : link

specifically for the little run they had at the end of 1998.

Antonio Pierce

armstead98 : 3/27/2015 11:50 am : link

Jessie Armstead
Kerry Collins

cant have weathorford

lightemup : 3/27/2015 11:52 am : link

and not mention Feagles. best directional punter ive seen

Of course,

RB^2 : 3/27/2015 11:52 am : link

I'll always be thankful for LT and Strahan.

Stephen Baker "the touchdown maker", OJ Anderson, Hoss

BLUATHRT : 3/27/2015 11:53 am : link

They were so clutch in SB XXV.

Absolutely. I was thinking(in terms of a moment or game) how Weatherford pinned the Pats inside the 20(and 10) during SB XLVI..6(?) times iirc

I can't be the first to say

djm : 3/27/2015 11:57 am : link

Hakeem Nicks.

Guy beasted for 3-4 years here and helped us win a super bowl. Love him. Not every career can be 10 years. Nicks balled for NYG and he didn't steal any money either. When he was due to get paid his skill set went into the dumps. That's a bummer from his POV not ours.

Chase Blackburn

BLUATHRT : 3/27/2015 11:58 am : link

Huge interception on Gronk

reading comp fail

djm : 3/27/2015 11:59 am : link

sorry...

I got nothing.

Ottis Anderson

Doomster : 3/27/2015 12:00 pm : link

Was supposed to washed up......had one last hurrah in him....

Kevin Dockery

Stupendamatic : 3/27/2015 12:02 pm : link

For a time he was a solid slot corner for us.

Brandon Jacobs

BigBluDawg : 3/27/2015 12:03 pm : link

!!!

John Mendenhall for his bad ass attitude

Headhunter : 3/27/2015 12:05 pm : link

Jack Gregory for being a very good player on some lousy teams
Leon McQuay because he was going to score 6 TD's a game
Pete Athas because he was a crazy fucker
Dave Jennings because besides being a great punter was a great human being

Scott Norwood...

Jan in DC : 3/27/2015 12:05 pm : link

Steve Smith

Mr Brightside : 3/27/2015 12:06 pm : link

Kevin Boss, & RW McQuarters

Kevin boothe and jake ballard

Eli's Got This Stuff : 3/27/2015 12:06 pm : link

Herm Edwards

RinR : 3/27/2015 12:07 pm : link

Rocky Bernard, Derrick Ward, James Butler, Mike Matthews

NYGmen58 : 3/27/2015 12:13 pm : link

Grey Ruegamer, Deon Grant, Derrick Martin, Ruben Droughns, Guy Whimper, Tony Ugoh, Greg Jones, are a few from recent years that come to mind.

Hoss saved a lot of things

rebel yell : 3/27/2015 12:17 pm : link

that season, but as mentioned, his raw strength and toughness in the end zone was huge! That guy was a beast and tough as nails!

Bobby Johnson...

Strip-Sack : 3/27/2015 12:22 pm : link

4th and 17

Kerry Collins

jnoble : 3/27/2015 12:22 pm : link

ok, so he didn't have Eli's cool under pressure demeanor but my God did he have a cannon for an arm and could fire heat seeking missles 50 yards with ease.

Jason Sehorn. It was fun while it lasted. Stupid Jets preseason career-ruining game.

Gary Jeter

Headhunter : 3/27/2015 12:29 pm : link

Ron Dixon's TD against the Ravens
Jesse Armstead's TD being nullified by a bullshit holding call when the game was still a game, still pisses me off thinking about it

Antonio Peirce

Chef : 3/27/2015 12:35 pm : link

for the excellent tackle in Green Bay in the NFC Championship

Jumbo Eliot

blapre74 : 3/27/2015 12:37 pm : link

"hey, Jumbo, at least look tired." dominated Bruce Smith and of course, George Martin for his sack of Elway, and the hit by Gary Reasons. :)

Headhunter

jnoble : 3/27/2015 12:38 pm : link

Superbowl 35 was three hours of "WTF? What happened to us?" for me. Thankfully it went by fast. Like a mercy killing.

Ahmad Bradshaw

pjcas18 : 3/27/2015 12:39 pm : link

so much heart and I believe the spark that helped lead to XLII.

Aaron Ross

Jay on the Island : 3/27/2015 12:41 pm : link

his two tackles on Barber in Dallas in 2007 saved the game and season for the Giants.
