This prompted a three-game playoff against the Brooklyn Dodgers, which the Giants won in three games, clinched by Bobby Thomson's walk-off home run, a moment immortalized as the Shot Heard 'Round the World.

Title: 1973 New York Giants season
Passage: The 1973 New York Giants season was the 49th season for the club in the National Football League.  The season saw the Giants attempting to improve on their 8-6 record from 1972.  However, the Giants suffered one of the worst seasons in franchise history, winning only 2 games, while losing 11, and tying a game.  The 2 wins were against the Houston Oilers and the St. Louis Cardinals while the tie was against archrival Philadelphia, in what turned out to be the last game the Giants would ever play at Yankee Stadium before playing their final 5 home games at the Yale Bowl in Connecticut.  They moved to Shea Stadium in 1975 and to Giants Stadium in 1976.  The 2 wins by the Giants equalled the second fewest the team had ever posted in any season and it was their worst season since a 1-12-1 record in 1966.  After the season, head coach Alex Webster was fired and replaced the following season by Bill Arnsparger.

They qualified for the playoffs as a wild-card team as the #5 seed, and beat the #4 seed Tampa Bay Buccaneers (9–7), the top-seeded Dallas Cowboys (13–3), and the #2 seed Green Bay Packers (13–3) to become the National Football Conference representative in Super Bowl XLII.  There, they defeated the heavily favored and previously undefeated 18–0 New England Patriots and spoiled their perfect season.  The 2007 New York Giants became the 9th wild card team in NFL history to reach the Super Bowl and the 5th wild card team to win the Super Bowl, and the very first NFC wild card to accomplish the feat.  They were the third team in history to win three road playoff games en route to a Super Bowl and set a league record for most consecutive road wins in a single season (11), though the Super Bowl is played on a neutral field rather than an opponent's stadium.  It was the 7th league championship season for the New York Giants and their first since they won Super Bowl XXV in 1991.
Title: 1986 New York Giants season

The New York Giants, who play in the National Football Conference (NFC) of the National Football League (NFL), won their fifth championship—and first Super Bowl—in franchise history during the season.  Led by consensus league Most Valuable Player (MVP) linebacker Lawrence Taylor and Super Bowl MVP quarterback Phil Simms, the Giants posted a 14–2 record during the regular season, tied for the best record in the league with the defending Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears and the best in team history.  The Giants improved on their 10–6 record from 1985, won their first division championship since the NFL-AFL merger in 1970, and won Super Bowl XXI against the Denver Broncos.
Title: 2009 New York Giants season

Despite starting 5–0 to begin the season, they went 3–8 in their next 11 games and finished 3rd in the NFC East.  They were eliminated from playoff contention in Week 16.  They played teams from the NFC South and AFC West as per the schedule rotation, as well as their regular games with their NFC East rivals.  For head coach Tom Coughlin, this was his 6th season as the coach of the Giants.
Title: Phil Simms
Passage: Phillip Martin Simms (born November 3, 1955) is a former American football quarterback who spent his entire 14-year professional career playing for the New York Giants of the National Football League (NFL).  He is currently a television sportscaster for the CBS network.  After playing college football at Morehead State University, Simms was drafted in the first round by the New York Giants of the National Football League (NFL) with the number seven selection overall in the 1979 NFL Draft.  Simms was named Most Valuable Player (MVP) of Super Bowl XXI, after he led the Giants to a 39–20 victory over the Denver Broncos and set the record for highest completion percentage in a Super Bowl, completing 22 of 25 passes (88%).  He also was named to the Pro Bowl for his performances in the 1985 and 1993 seasons.
Title: 1985 New York Giants season
Passage: The 1985 New York Giants season was the 61st season for the club in the National Football League (NFL).  The Giants entered the season looking to improve on their 9–7 record in 1984, which was enough to qualify the team for the playoffs as the second wild-card team, and to return to the playoffs for the second consecutive year under third-year head coach Bill Parcells.  The Giants managed to do both, finishing with 10 victories for the first time since 1963 when the team won 11 games and finishing as the first wild-card team which earned the Giants a home playoff game at Giants Stadium.  They defeated the San Francisco 49ers 17–3 in that game, avenging their loss to the 49ers in the previous year's divisional playoffs.  However, it was as far as the Giants could get as they were defeated by the eventual Super Bowl champion Chicago Bears in the divisional round at Soldier Field 21–0.  Bill Parcells stated in "America's Game: 1986 Giants" that the game the Giants played against the Bears in the playoffs that "an honest evaluation of it, we could have probably beat that team one out of ten times.  But that day was one of the days that that could have happened", the Giants were ultimately undone by a whiffed punt from legend Sean Landeta, the ball flew out of the air when he went to punt it from a burst of wind coming of Lake Michigan, the Bears recovered the ball for a touchdown from less than 5 yards from the end zone, and ended up winning 21-0.  At the time, the team set a record for most rushing yards in one season by a Giants team.
