NYG 5:
collins... with time... rolls to the right... throws to shockey in the endzone wide open and its..... incomplete! it went through his hands!
we lost that game 39-38
THAT was my first pick as most lasting Shockey memory. Our defense was godawful in the 2nd half of that game, granted. BUT if Shock had held on to that pass we would have won. And the way he seemed to LAUGH as he slapped his hands after the drop...
Of course I'll also remember that rookie season play where he just bowled over would-be tacklers.
This writing has been on the wall for a long time. He's gone; it's too bad that it had to happen AND I'm 100% OK with it. The initially unapparent but evidently thorough and radiating force of MANNING has transformed this team, shrinking the old guard to the wayside.
