NYG 100 - Part 21 - the 1933 Giants

This was a bit time season not only for the Giants who had a loaded lineup with the likes of Harry Newmann and Ken Strong, but the NFL itself who took a major step forward toward modernization with rules changes to open up passing and also the structural realignment into East and West divisions and a championship game.

That championship game, played against the Bears in Chicago, was was a thrilling affair that went down to the very last paly, which the Giants nearly won with a trick play off a lateral but were foiled by a heads-up play by defender Red Grange. It is still considered to be one of the great championships in NFL history.
