What is your favorite Giants touchdown ever?

cpgiants : 6/16/2022 10:59 pm
Kind of a question that can go in a lot of different directions I guess.

I think mine is still the McConkey touchdown in Super Bowl 21 off the tipped ball.

Yes he was wide open... but the thrill and elation I felt in going up on the vaunted Pats was just awesome....

While not a TD catch.... one of my fav's is Bavaro carrying the 49ers team on his back....Lott just could not take him down

Man for one second. I'm like DON'T LOB IT UP! DON'T LOB IT UP!
I'm more partial to the Parcells years than the Coughlin years

But Eli is on my Mt Rushmore of Giants players. I can't pick just one there are a lot of them. I'll keep it to 4 off the top of my head.

Eli to Plax to win Super Bowl 42

Eli to Cruz to end Rex Ryan's Jet's and setup Super Bowl 46

LT vs the Lions on Thanksgiving

LT vs the 49ers 49-3


Manning Lobs it... - ( New Window )
Regular Season - George Martin pick 6

On TV: Tough one, but I have to go with the Brandon Jacob’s spiking of the play clock against the Cowboys. My favorite team and memories being a Giants fan was this playoff run, and I got to share it with a lot of close friends and Jacob’s fired us up as much as he did his teammates with this play. Would love to see a prime Jacob’s type player on the Giants again, he was the soul of the team.



Was gonna post this one for non-playoff TDs. Not really a consequential TD, but so badass and enjoyable.


Jacob’s hated the Cowboys more than us fans haha, this one just got us so pumped up for this game. My favorite Giants offense was when Jacob’s and Bradshaw were in their prime together and we had an OL that were a bunch of maulers up their in the run. Jacob’s and Bradshaw were such an awesome duo, I miss those days.
off the of my head  
NYDCBlue : 6/17/2022 6:17 pm : link
Jacobs in Dallas. I believe it was a playoff game, when he ran through the end zone and beamed the ball at the play clock, breaking a bulb.


For some reason that TD sticks out.
There should be some kind of honorable mention  
NYDCBlue : 6/17/2022 6:23 pm : link
For the Eli to Hakeem Nicks hail Mary pass in Green Bay, to close out the half. I believe that play tied the game up, and gave us all hope when it was not looking great.

Collins to Ike - first TD of the 2000 NFC Title game.

Ron Dixon TD kick return to open game against Philly a week prior.


I think you are just like me, we just hate the Eagles.... Speaking of memorable TDs against Philly, how about Shockey's jaw jabbing, trash talking, grab during his rookie year, I think it was?
NYDCBlue...  
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 6/17/2022 6:41 pm : link
Yup. Shockey grabbing the ball over that fucker Dawkins, probably my least favorite athlete ever.
ones that instantly popped into my head.  
xtian : 6/17/2022 6:53 pm : link
not necessarily my favorites:
1. 1998 Kent Graham to Amani Toomer catch in the back of the end to win the game against the 13-0 Broncos.
2. 1980 Earnest Gray had 2 great games: Cardinals 4 TDs and Packers 3 TDs all from Phil Simms. This is more about the entire game rather than an individual TD.
3. 1967 Earl Morrall to Homer Jones 98 yard TD. Back then the 2 goal posts were both on the goal line. Earl was deep in the end zone and narrowly missed hitting one before completing bomb.
4. 2011 Eli Manning to Victor Cruz 99 yards against the Jets on 3rd and 10. Victor jump skipped by 2 DBs and then barely squeaked the safety. Changed the game.

Oh yeah duh. 1998 vs Denver was my favorite moment from those Fassel years. Oh yeah and 41-0.

Don't say that to that one guy from the prior thread who whacks off to pictures of Nick Foles. He might not like that.

Then again, that doesn't necessarily narrow it down because half of BBI loves to slurp up the Eagles.

BBI loves to slurp up the Eagles like a Slurpee.

What fucking absolute, loser, filth.
1986 NFC Championship - Simms to Manuel  
kinard : 6/17/2022 7:54 pm : link
Into the wind. Simms steps up, threads the needle from 11 yards into Manuel's hands cutting across the end zone.

Giants go up 10-0 and you knew the Redskins weren't scoring and we were going to the Super Bowl.

Great moment.

First two that came to mind for some reason  
Bear vs Shark : 6/17/2022 9:04 pm : link
Eli to Manningham on 3rd and 18 or whatever in '11 NFC Championship game, and Collins to Shockey over Dawkins in '02 win and in.

Read the thread after posting and see that most of you agree. Surprised to see so many people mention Shockey over Dawkins but holy fuck, that was exhilarating.
Eli to Plax

Was my number 1.

My most memorable...  
Brown_Hornet : 6/18/2022 1:27 am : link
...TDs have been mentioned.

My most memorable plays are not TDs.

1 - Jacob's 1st carry vs GB when he ran over Woodson told me that the Giants came to play that day.

2- Gary Reasons goal line stop vs Bobby Humphrey is engrained.

3- Jim Burt's TKO of Joe Montana is 3rd.

Fuck Brian Dawkins and any Giant fan who cheers on the Eagles.

Signed,

Anyone who is normal
Not my favorite...  
Klaatu : 6/18/2022 10:08 am : link
But certainly one of the most enjoyable.

Giants v 'Skins 1988 - Jim Burt TD - ( New Window )
I remember 2 as a kid  
Bleedblue10 : 6/18/2022 6:38 pm : link
1) Dave Meggett halfback pass to Mike sherries against the skins(I believe they ran that play for a td twice that year, both against Washington)
2) Rodney Hampton long td run against Minnesota in LTs last home game.
Among the favorites  
ep in md : 6/18/2022 9:50 pm : link
On Dec. 13, 1998, the Giants upset the defending Super Bowl champion, the 13-0 Denver Broncos, 20-16, on Kent Graham's 37-yard touchdown pass to Amani Toomer with 48 seconds remaining.

That was the same day as WWF Rock Bottom because I remember being at my aunt's house to watch the game and PPV because she had the illegal box hahaha I miss those days
personal favorite  
The Jake : 6/19/2022 8:41 am : link
is Stephen Baker’s catch in the corner of the end zone for our first TD in Giants vs Bears, January 1991.

i happened to be sitting right there in the corner lower tier seats where he caught it and, as a kid, the play felt like it was designed to be run right at me. i have a pretty vivid memory of watching Baker get a step, seeing the ball in the air, seeing the over the shoulder catch, and then seeing the ref run up to the line and furiously shake his head up and down (“yes”), as if his upraised arms weren’t enough. and the ref’s hat fell off!

i was 11, and it was at that moment that i started believing Hostetler could do it.
how could i forget?  
The Jake : 6/19/2022 8:43 am : link
thank you Dad for bringing me to that game!

happy Father’s Day all!
