About Adam Nichols Expertise I can answer a wide variety of questions including, but not limited to: defense, offense, drafts, and coaching. I am a lifelong giant fan and season-ticket holder. I also have experience playing football.
Question I was wondering if there was actually a game called this and if there was who the quarterbacks were and any information you may have on them. thanks
Answer Matt-
There is indeed the game you speak of. Eagles fans typically know it as the "miracle of the meadowlands", while Giants fans call it simply "the fumble". On November 19, 1978, the Eagles came to Giants Stadium. With 31 seconds left, the Giants were leading 17-12. The Giants had the ball on their own 29 yard line. Giants QB Joe Pisarcik needed only to take a knee and the game would be over. Rather than take that knee, Pisarcik tried to hand the ball off to Larry Csonka. The handoff was fumbled and Eagles lineman Herman Edwards picked the football up and ran into the endzone as the Giants players and coaches could not believe their eyes. Losing one game may not seem like a big deal, but unfortunately QB Joe Pisarcik would be remembered for the rest of his career for that single mishap. Today, Joe lives in Marlton, NJ and owns a very succesful investment firm in NYC. I happen to know Joe personally (He is a member at a Country Club I used to work for) and he is a really great guy, but understandably, he does not want to talk about football.
