Larry Csonka still remembers that angst he felt in 2008 as he watched former Syracuse teammate Tom Coughlin coaching the New York Giants, attempting to put together a game-winning drive against the then 18-0 New England Patriots in Super Bowl 42.
Then he watched Eli Manning break free from the grasps of several Patriots defenders and throw up a pass to David Tyree, who pulled off the famed “Helmet Catch” with Rodney Harrison draped over him.
“What a moment,” Csonka, the Hall of Fame Dolphins fullback, said on a virtual news conference Tuesday.
