Reviews
"A key figure serves up an in-depth analysis of an underdog Super Bowl victory [...] Through the lens of that storied game, Coughlin tells his own story as a player and coach, offers character sketches of his players [...] and delivers a deft portrait of the pro game and the thinking that goes into every play as well as the many back-office figures who contribute to success on the field. For fans, though, the best parts of the book are the author's nimble descriptions of small but important moments and figures in the game."-- Kirkus Review, "In A GIANT WIN, one of football history's greatest coaches takes the reader inside football history's greatest game. Nobody thought we could beat the Patriots, but Coach Coughlin made us believe. In this book, he vividly recalls all the plays, players and personalities that helped David "stomp out" Goliath. Coach Coughlin is on the Mount Rushmore of all-time New York sports coaches. In A GIANT WIN, he opens up about his time in New York, sharing unprecedented insight into his relationships with his players, including myself. As a coach, he should be in the Hall of Fame. But he's an even better man." -- Michael Strahan
