The last time we were 1-8 in a season? 1980. Pray to god we end up we someone like this again.

Yea, it is this video that tells the story. LT was injured the week before and didn’t play that day ... until they let him play in the second half ... this video shows how Taylor was capable of taking over an entire game all by himself.

And your comment is way off ... they don’t make them like this anymore? That implies Taylor was one of many of a great era ... that’s BS ... there wasn’t anyone close to LT before or since.
I think you know

what I meant
Of course that is true  
mattnyg05 : 11/23/2017 8:10 am : link
Odd to pick that apart there but whatever. I didn’t mean he was part of a great era-he’s the greatest defensive player ever, kind of semantics but thanks for pointing that out there bro.
My gosh he was great!

Sometimes we forget. One of a kind. Thanks for posting.
Favorite player all-time

It’s rare for a defensive player to take over a game and even more so to actually win a game. That’s what LT was capable of on any given week.
Sadly that was the last touchdown  
Diver_Down : 11/23/2017 12:17 pm : link
the Giants have scored on Thanksgiving. It was also the last time we won on Thanksgiving. As a franchise, we have to go back to 1938 when we last scored an offensive touchdown on Thanksgiving. Will we be able to score a touchdown (offense or defense) today?
I’m only 33

But I never realized Danielson was a former QB. I know him only as the analyst for the SEC games on CBS.
i'll always be torn on LT  
RasputinPrime : 11/23/2017 12:33 pm : link
favorite player but someone who's life choices i've always been at odds with.

Let's feast tonight. I can feel something special in the oven.
LT

Will always be my favorite Giant.
