Pivotal NFC East matchup for a pair of 6-2 teams. Carl Banks KO's Danny White with a broken wrist. Big drama at the end. Giants would not lose again in the '86 season.
Summerall and Madden on the call.

And they only won that first game because Lawrence Taylor got tired; he admits that in the America's Game episode on the 1986 Giants.
I still see that TD run without his shoe against the Steelers!
Helaire with KC reminds me so much of Joe.

Yeah, I'm watching these old videos and I don't remember how good Joe Morris was.

Dallas was that year. They gave us everything we could handle. Danny White and Herschel were really tough against the Giants. The opening night loss to them was a tough loss, and I remember biting my nails this whole second game as well.

There’s a clip in a lot of highlights reels of Parcell’s yelling “some guys need to get their head out of their ass” at LT when he came off the field in that game. To LT’s credit, started week 2 he turned in his MVP season

They were good with White starting and not good with Pelluer starting. When Banks hit him in this game, he broke his wrist and tore ligaments too, ending his season. Pelluer started after that and the team cratered.
