late loss in Carolina The New York Giants fell in heartbreaking fashion on Sunday afternoon White Odell Beckham Jerseys , dropping their fourth loss of the season to the Carolina Panthers 33-31. Panthers kicker Graham Gano hit a 63-yard field goal to win the game. Let’s take a look at what the players are saying following the tough loss. Landon Collins on how the Giants locker room is dealing with Odell Beckham’s comments from earlier this week...“I don’t know what comments you guys are talking about,” Collins said. “I didn’t hear about them, but when Odell [Beckham] came to talk to us, he spoke from the heart, he talked gratefully, and we knew where he was coming from. We knew he was coming from the heart, so you know he’s a great teammate, a great guy, a great person and a leader. This offense, this team, we have to look up to him, so we knew where he was coming from.”Panthers quarterback Cam Newton on Gano’s game-winning kick...“I am happy that we got a kicker like that,” Newton said. “A wise man once told me that a great quarterback is only as good as his kicker. Over the years you see so many quarterbacks get bailed out by the kickers. I shouldn’t say bailed out Odell Beckham Jerseys 2019 , I’ll just say helped out and Graham put the whole team on his back today. Well, on his toe today.”Gano on the reaction on the field following his game-winning kick...“That was madness,” Gano said. “That’s the only word I can use to explain it. I just don’t think it’s hit me yet. I was going nuts. I think the first thing I saw was Mike (Palardy) reacting that it went in because I couldn’t really see over those giants in front of us – not the other team, just our offensive lineman. But I just have no words for it.”Saquon Barkley on the on the go-ahead touchdown...“At the moment, it felt great,” Barkley said. “We wanted to go down and find a way to score and put seven on the board. We needed seven on the board. Coach, the offensive coordinator and the whole offensive staff called great plays and put us in great positions to get into the end zone. We found a way to get into the end zone. Like I said, Carolina came up with a 63-yard field goal. I don’t know what else you can say about that. We played our butt off and you have to give credit where credit is due. They made a 63-yard field goal and won the game.“Beckham on regretting any comments criticizing head coach, Pat Shurmur and teammates...“I don’t regret anything, I don’t regret anything that I said,” Beckham said. “If it took that for us to come together as a team like we did today, I can take that every single time. I spoke to the team just to kind of relay the message that sometimes stuff comes off the wrong way. Words can be portrayed in any kind of light. The conversation is between us. But the way we responded as a team to what was said, I felt like it would’ve been too easy after what was said White Saquon Barkley Jerseys , and after what I said to them for us to come in here and have heart, energy and all that stuff. Grit, whatever the words you want to use for that. We had it today, and we came up short, but I’m proud of this team, and this is the team that we are going to be for the rest of the season. Like I said, if it took that to get us going, I can take that. I’m trying to be a leader, I’m in a position I’ve never been in. I’m trying to grow, I’m learning on the way, on the fly, but I’m proud of where we went today. We gave it our all, we came against adversity Saquon Barkley Jerseys 2019 , calls here and there. We can never rely on the referees to win the game, but there was calls here and there that were questionable or this and that, but we kept fighting, kept fighting, and kept fighting. That’s all I could ask for.” The late Jared Lorenzen made only a limited on-field contribution to the 2007 Giants, throwing eight passes in a pair of ugly season-opening losses. He didn’t take a snap in the 14 regular-season games that followed, or in any of the four playoffs games the Giants won. Lorenzen had a key role, however, in one of the most important plays in NFL history.A video posted by the NFL’s “Throwback” account on Twitter shows that Lorenzen’s zealous participation throughout the year in a routine drill helped prepare starting quarterback Eli Manning for the moment that delivered a Super Bowl win that derailed what would have been the only 19-0 season in NFL history.At every practice, the other quarterbacks harassed and hassled Manning, forcing him to escape the grasp of potential defenders, which is precisely what Manning did before throwing the desperation pass that receiver David Tyree somehow pinned against his helmet.“All the work I had with Jared Lorenzen, I think that was a big help in getting out of that pocket White Phil Simms Jerseys ,” Manning says in the clip.“You have to move around, and the other quarterbacks try to strip the ball out. Lorenzen took it to the next level, and it was like he was the [defensive] tackle, trying to get a sack.”As a result, Manning was ready to pinball through and around the New England pass rush, pulling himself free from the grasp of a defender before buying just enough time to set up and throw.Like every other player who didn’t directly contribute to the win, Lorenzen received a Super Bowl ring. Unlike those who didn’t directly contribute, Lorenzen made an important indirect contribution all year long. Even though his time on the field as an NFL player wasn’t memorable (those eight passes from Week One and Week Two were the only regular-season throws of his entire career), Lorenzen’s role in getting Manning ready for the biggest play of his own career should be remembered, and appreciated.<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="500" data-dnt="true">Without Jared Lorenzen, the Helmet Catch might have never happened.Rest In Peace to the former @Giants QB and Super Bowl champ. pic.twitter.com/1XRZVYmjyv— NFL Throwback (@nflthrowback) July 4, 2019</blockquote>
