Legacies at Stake on Sunday Night! (Giants vs. Cowboys 2011, Week 14) 

Gotta love nostalgia, back when JPP had a full set of fingers.

God, look how good how goodTony Romo and Eli Manning used to throw the football. Now one's sitting on Corona commercials and the other is sitting on the Bench. Appreciate your youth. Here Today. Gone Tomorrow.

This game perfectly encapsulates the legacies of both QBs. Eli: Struggles and is imperfect, but he comes through at the end. Romo: Looks great for most of the game, but a mistake at the end causes the L.

This game marked a turning point for the Giants Super Bowl season

Brandon Jacobs was one of my favorite players when I started watching the NFL.

This was around the time when u really didn't know to expect from either teams, both were about evenly matched.....good times

I remember watching this when I was 11...absolutely incredible and still sends chills down my spine watching. Without this win there would be no super bowl 46 victory for the giants

This era of Cowboys teams were the biggest chokers in history lmao

The game that saved the Giants 2011 season

I miss eli and tony, showing the other one up,win or lose,they gave us a great game to watch.

jeez how tf did we win the SB with this defense? Oh yeah, Eli and that Pass Rush lol

All those Eli-haters who attempt to claim that his defense "carried" him in 2011 should just watch this game. It was a typical snapshot of just how atrocious the D was all year.

This game happened 8 years ago 👀

I remember being at this game when I was 11 and I was so heartbroken after the loss it was my first game at that stadium 😭

15:28 that groan from AL is *STILL* hilarious for me to this day 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Back when the NFC East was deemed the best division in the League

Can't spell Elite without Eli

The feeling of seeing that comeback and then to see that field goal getting blocked in front of Jerry's world on national TV is beyond euphoric.

To think this win kicked off the Giants Superbowl run.

Eli was an absolute beast in 2011. Look at the releases on his throws. I knew when the Giants won this game they were going to go all the way even after the dud against the Skins the week after. This comeback was absolutely mind blowing.

The amount of dropped interceptions the cowboys had is sickening

Romo used to make me nervous af with the play clock. He took forever to snap the ball because he always changed the play. Garrett got exposed big time after Romo left.

Eli was SO GOOD in his prime man.

I always remember this game, Unreal. What a Comeback. So Many Clutch plays.

funny he says no one has been more clutch then Eli this season.. dude goes on to clutch the superbowl

I am a Vikings fan, but enjoy watching the Giants' 2011 season highlights and games.

Man when Eli had help

9:28 the camera guy gets hit by the ball 😂😂

Gotta miss Laurent Robinson. 2 great games in 2011 vs. the G-Strings.

These Cowboys teams broke my heart on more than one occasion, they choked whole seasons away.

Can’t spell elite without ELI💯LFG GMEN

I bet Romo somehow got blamed for this game despite 4 TDs and really no true turnover worthy plays. Amazing how perception of him has changed over the years.

I was at this game! My ex had a big sign that read “Got Ice?” Because just the Sunday before this one the cowboys kicker got iced in AZ and lost in OT.

Very enjoyable. Thank you ☺

Black cat on the field For the touchdown!!!! Thanks for the heart I love these videos Lots of good and bad memories Its always nice to look back in the past Time flies by fast

Very much enjoyed this.

Alright, let's hear it. Who's more at fault for the incomplete pass at 12:12? Romo or Austin?

This was an amazing game... wow

I always forget that we were down 12 with five to go in this game. This game will always be the JPP block for me but man…Eli!!!

How can I be so old that the teams I used to watch are almost all retired already? I used to love watching Eli vs Tony.

Dude I thought this was today's game!!! I thought romo and eli were back i was so shook I need to quick smoking guys 🤣😣

These 2 teams have had so many classic games but this one was definitely one of the best & Miles Austin was so underrated

100th like for the lit video. Keep it up Throwback!

Eli and Romo has some classics

Laurent Robinson was amazing!

God 4th quarter eli is a different beast

Legacies were made here and in the season finale as well as the 2007 Div PO game. Romo established himself as a choke artist and Eli as one of the most clutch QBs ever. Romo badly overthrew Austin, that would have clinched the game, while Eli led 2 TD drives in the closing 5 minutes. Three weeks later, in the Div title game, Eli has a 3 TD 0 Int game, while Romo has a 2 TD 2 Int game. In the Div PO game, Eli completed 67% of his passes with 2 TDs and 0 Ints, while Romo completed just 50% of his passes with 1 TD and a game-ending Int. That's why Eli is a HOFer and Romo isn't. 'Boys homers don't bother with a reply, I won't read it.

In college at the time. It was a crazy season

As a Cowboys fan, this is easily one of the top 5 worst losses I’ve experienced. I was pissed after this game. We win this game and it wouldn’t be a Giants Super Bowl win

As a kid, I stayed up to watch this on a school night and remember to this day how fucking hyped I was lmao go big blue !

12:08 if Miles Austin makes that catch - the game is over and the Giants have no shot at the playoffs - Instead they get another possession and go on to win the superbowl - crazy how this game really is a game of inches

I miss them days of watching SNF with the Cowboys and the Giants, Steelers and the Ravens. Then watching Football and Wrestling on Mondays

what a game and the Giants had home games against Washington and the Cowboys and a road game against the Jets which is why Al Michaels said the Giants wont have to play a game outside of their stadium

I'm really going to miss Eli. He made me a football fan. Underrated QB. Didn't play for stats. People don't get that.

3:23 that's the most phantom PI I've ever seen

Crazy to think this giants team would have been finished had they lost this game... in just week 14

The Giants really need to get good again. I found myself yelling that them more then once watching this video....And this is a game they won...In a year they won the superbowl.

Man I miss these days

Back when the Giants would play at Dallas late in the year and not on opening day which now happens every fucking year. SMH.

Dang, that SNF theme really has improved.

Upload cowboys vs giants 2013 week 12

Damn 12 points down with 5 minutes to save the season and start a Superbowl run

12:11 and that is the type of play that separates the legends from the could’ve beens.

One of the most frustrating games I’ve ever watched

From 2006-2016 it was fun to watch NY and Dallas go at it but also it was during this time that Dallas got it choking status from the league....all that fucking talent and couldn't even get to the damn NFC Championship Game let alone the damn Superbowl....crazy fucking crazy lol

If this isn’t the perfect example of a Jason Garrett coached team, I don’t know what is.

DJ Ware was automatic with the 2-PT conversions that season

Eli in 2011 was absolutely brilliant. Anyone arguing otherwise needs to be quiet because they simply don't know the game of football. Giants were ranked dead last in BOTH Rushing & Offensive Line #'s that season. Also their Defense was ranked down in the mid 20's. Absolutely remarkable season from Eli, one for the ages.

This one still hurts.

Nice flash back 👌

I remember the cowboys defense just being so historically bad between 2011 and 2015

Felix Jones cuts and acceleration were nuts. So much wasted potential

1 of 3 . of Eli greatest games ever played

one of my fav giants games of all time #BigBlue

Everyone talks about 12:06 where if that pass was completed that the Giants season would be over. The sad thing is that during the season the Cowboys choked at that point 4 4th quarter leads. It began with the Jets choke in the last 5 minutes. Then the choke against the Lions where Romo threw 2 pick six's and one to Barbie Carpenter in the second half. Then against the Patriots where the defense had to make that one last stop to get the win. Didn't happen. Then the worst from the previous week. It explains everything Jason Garrett as a coach. 13-13 and Dan Bailey for the Cowboys had a kick to win the game. Garrett freaks out and fucking calls a time out just as Dan kicks the ball. It goes through, but it doesn't count. Next play Bailey hits the upright no good. That dumbass iced his own kicker. The Cardinals got the ball and scored on their first possession. The Cowboys would lose 4 out of 5 and either would have been stomped in the playoffs even if they won this game. They just choked when it mattered.

Romo > Dak. And that's a fact. Prescott is nothing more than an average NFL QB....

ppl blame romo for choking but he got the team downfield.... Bailey just shanked it

damn i remember watchin this at Phil's Bbq 🤣

I'm grateful JPP waited to play with fireworks after this season, wouldn't have had enough fingers to get that last FG block.

Giants: Manchester United = Historically good but a dumpster fire right now! Cowboys: Liverpool = Haven't won a league title/super bowl since the 90s and still think they're relevant lmfao

I don't think he is a HOFer, but I love Eli's grit.

This was a real heartbreaking loss for us I was not surprised the Giants went on another Super Bowl run as inconsistent as Eli was at times during his career this particular season he was the most clutch QB in football. The Giants had a tenacious defensive front and the Cowboys at this time had one of the worst OL’s in the league, which made it a bad matchup for us. Romo played great as he typically did throughout his career I think he gets a bad reputation as a player that came up small in big moments, but watching pretty much his entire career Tony was one of the top quarterbacks overall and in the 4th quarter. People forget how flawed some of the teams Romo played on and this game was a perfect example of that because Tony was able to lead the Cowboys to a double digit deficit with less then five minutes to play. The defense gave up the lead, which unfortunately has been a pattern not only in the Romo era also the last few years with Dak.

Damnnnnn this was still a running league. I miss it.

Boy thats some great move

Defenders need to learn to block backwards on INT's. The guy with the ball needs clearance in front of him, AND he needs blocking from pursuing receivers from behind. On Sean Lee's INT at 10:09, his teammates seemed more like a hinderance than anything else. One or two blocks backwards, and less bodies to run through (some his own teammates), and maybe h breaks into open field.

Anyone who says Eli wasn't elite didn't have to face that dude in an important game... Also that's on Miles Austin not Romo he said he lost it in the lights

Man we hecca choked on this one smh up 2 possesions with under 6 min .

Not 2 minutes into the video and there’s already the old 3rd & long HB draw from Kevin gilbride 😂

Romo Vs Eli the best QB rivalry in NFL History. Come @ Me

Gotta love Dez Cryant doing Cruz’s dance just to watch his team choke in epic fashion😂😂 another pathetic career

JPP doesn't make that block without all them fingers

Eli was a stud back in 11

10 years ago

Dallas Cowboys...The reason my fingernails havent grown since the 70's.

Lol that celebration by Jacobs at 3:31

Whos watching this with the week 17 game from these teams just uploaded?

You know it's a good game, when you see Terrance Newman haha.. damn it's only 8 years but this is OLD!!

This game pretty much sums up the Jason Garrett era. So close and yet they’re never able to get over the hump in big games and the cycle continues.

Felix Jones was goin in

I had forgotten the WRs Eli had at this stage.
