Giants harmony?
JT the Brick thinks that Giants veterans will start buying into Coughlin's system since it produced a win. A more detailed examination of similar themes comes from Filip Bondy of the Daily News who feels that this win can repair some of the bad feelings between the Giants players and Giants coaches: "Coughlin already was in real trouble with this particular group of players. He needed to prove there was method to his meticulousness."
Rhoden from the New York Times argues that this win is not enough, that the "Giants are not playing heart and soul for Coughlin", and that "the tug of war between coach and veteran players will continue". Bob Glauber from Newsday agrees saying that the crisis is averted until next week. He has a detailed description of Strahan handing the ball to Coughlin.
