Ray Handley's New York Giants

About this episode

This episode recounts the frustrating era of the New York Giants under coach Ray Handley in the early 1990s.

Throughout the 1980's, the New York Giants were one of the premier teams in football, led by Bill Parcells, Lawrence Taylor, and Phil Simms. But by 1991, Parcells had left the team, Taylor was showing his age, and Simms had been benched for Jeff Hostetler. Coached by Ray Handley, the aging Giants struggled through two mediocre seasons in 1991 and 1992. In this episode, Andrew and Dan recount one of the most frustrating eras in Giants history.
