Tom Coughlin's Kicker WoesThe Sports Oasis
Tom Coughlin's kicker almost cost his Giants a shot at the Super Bowl yesterday. However, it wasn't the first time that Coughlin's Giants have experienced some problems in that department. Last year, they went into their matchup against the Chicago Bears with a 6-2 record, and as one of the best teams in the NFC up to that point. They were trailing the Bears by just four points when Coughlin ...
Four Memorable Field Goal Botches in NFL Playoff HistoryEast Coast Bias
Lawrence Tynes, the Giants' kicker, narrowly avoided becoming one of many playoff goats in recent memory.

Here are four other memorable kicker/snap/holder botches in the NFL playoffs. To ...
Let the good Tynes roll!ESPN.com - NFL Nation Blog
As Eli Manning addressed a large group of reporters, I looked over and spotted a tall, thin kid in a 4-button blue suit listening intently. I thought it was either a TV reporter or an intern in the Giants' PR department, but it was actually kicker Lawrence Tynes. He seemed remarkably unaffected by what had to be the greatest moment of his young career. When he took the podium, he calmly ...

At this rate, the Giants will be lucky to make it back to New York before Tuesday. Even an hour after their 23-20 overtime victory over the Packers, Giants players and administrators didn't want to let go of the moment. I watched reserve cornerback R.W. McQuarters try to leave three separate times, but he kept doubling back to celebrate with teammates. When Lawrence Tynes' 47-yard field ...

Yeah, well, I could have done that12 Seahawks Way
So, Mr. Tynes, you think missing clutch kicks is your thing? HA. I had that shit pegged years ago. You only missed two. I could have missed three. You know what power is, Mr. Tynes?

Ahmad Bradshaw is really goodESPN.com - NFL Nation Blog
Pretty amazing that the Giants had rookie Ahmad Bradshaw in the game for the most meaningful series of the season. He was brilliant on the first down run, and the touchdown run that was nullified. I'm sure that tongue-lashing Tom Coughlin gave Lawrence Tynes some confidence. Oh my goodness! Dead pull-hook and we're headed for OT. The snap was high, but Tynes still had time to get off a ...
