“Don’t pay any attention to what they’re saying. Just go out there and play and don’t let that media affect you as far as trying to be a daring quarterback. You just go out there and let it go and I will support you 100% no matter what happens.” This is what Bill Parcells told Phil Simms during the 1986 season as Simms was getting boo’d relentlessly. This was at a time when the Giants had a championship-caliber defense and team, yet the passing game was struggling. Fans and the media shared the same general sentiment that Simms was holding the team back.
