Editorial Review:
Bill Parcells has coached many great players over his NFL career, yet only a select few have been allowed to enter his inner circle. These are his "guys." A "Parcells guy" is usually someone you don't have to worry much about. He's reliable, productive, and smart. Even if he plays like a star, he rarely acts like one. The 1986 Giants had a few "Parcells guys". Outside linebacker Lawrence Taylor collected 20.5 sacks that season and won the NFL MVP Award, the first defensive player to do so since 1971. Joe Morris, a 1,500 yard rusher, was a Parcells favorite. Harry Carson, the vocal middle linebacker, and Mark Bavaro, a reserved tight end, were Parcells men, too. Quarterback Phil Simms was another matter. In eight years with the Giants, Simms had been maligned by the media and the fans for being good, but seldom great. Even a 14-2 regular season did not silence Simms' critics, or fully satisfy the demands of his head coach. Then, in Super Bowl XXI against Denver, Simms became the ultimate Parcells player, passing with a degree of precision unmatched in the big game's history. Join NFL Films as they retell the story of the '86 Giants, the team that began the Parcells legend. America's Game uses exclusive interviews from the coach himself, Simms and Taylor to reminisce about Big Blue's first Super Bowl championship.
NFL Americas Game: NY Giants Super Bowl XXI Reviews:
Another season highlight film worth a purchase 
2009-09-02 - NFL Network's production of "America's Game" has a documentary covering the season of each Super Bowl winner. They add a new perspective never before seen in previously released documentaries, from 2 - 3 players and sometimes the head coach. This one is no different, offering some very interesting insight into the Giants' first Super Bowl run. No beeps over cuss words, just pure 100% insight from the men who lived it, in their own words. Definitely worth the purchase, especially if you are a Giants fan!
complete garbage 
2009-08-07 - I was expecting the entire game and got nothing of the sort. They showed about a minutes worth of highlights and that was it. I only wanted this game because a friend of mine snuck on the Giants sideline without even having a ticket to enter the stadium, and I wanted to view him because he is in many shots and even held down the umpires arm and called the first down himself (this is how he got caught). He was also the only civilian to make it onto the field when the Mets beat Boston that same year in the World Series. After Jesse Orosco strikes out the last batter and throws up his glove, you see my friend Kevin run on the field, you cant miss him. He is wearing a blue shirt, and runs out right behind home plate. He also snuck into that game into 2nd row seats and was sitting 2 seats away from the president. I don't understand why a full game cannot be purchased, it doesn't make any sense!
