My vote goes to the 1986 regular season win vs. the 49ers. On the road and trailing 17-0 at the half, as I recall, the Giants put up 3 TDs in the 3rd quarter and we're driving for another when Mark Bavaro fumbled on the 49er 6 yard line. Does anyone have a tape of that game?

just watch the third quarter, Giants down 10 - 9, and scored three straight possessions and forced three straight punts to take a 26 - 10 insurmountable lead.
I was so nervous that whole first half.
I was young, but remember it vividly.

This was the game I was going to mention as well.
In the Super Bowl, I am not sure we made any great adjustments. Just settled down and executed better. Team was too wound up at the beginning of the game especially the defense. The Broncos TD drive was something of a gift. They went from about the 35 to the 5 on double personal fouls by LT and Harry. We were better physically than Denver and were going to take over at some point. Just happened to be right after half.

Fake punt and flea flicker count as adjustments to me, Parcells talked about the things they noticed with Denver specials and defense, and once the Giants offense put up 17 unanswered points to take the 16 point (then 3 score) lead in the 3rd forced Denver to be mostly one dimensional.
SF game was great half time work, just thought I'd throw another one out from that same season.
Came home and heard the stories about Carson throwing chairs in the locker room etc.
For whatever reason, when I walk on ice with sneakers on, it doesn't improve my traction. Probably better than it would be wearing cleats, but I've long wondered if winning that game was ever really about the sneakers.
yep...
Anyone have copy of this game

I can't remember the year but remember being down by 2+ TDs, and the end of the game Plax was in the end zone after scoring the winning TD yelling "Get that sh*t out of here!" to the Philly crowd. It was beautiful.
