It’s not often that a coach will leave a game injured. Sadly though, it will happen from time to time. Whether it be a player accidentally hitting him over the head during the celebratory Gatorade bath, or slipping on a banana peel dropped by a cramping player, coaching injuries happen from time to time, and we need to be prepared. Brian Daboll came out of Nashville with a different problem.
The Giants have had their struggles since the end of their last Superbowl run, consistently finishing in the bottom five of the NFL. They’ve gone through four head coaches since Tom Coughlin’s retirement, Brian Daboll being the fifth, and hopefully the one to change the pace of the historic franchise.
Daboll and the Giants came out slow in their 2022 opener, falling behind to the Tennessee Titans 13-0 early. They managed to come back to a point where they had the ball in the redzone only down seven points. All they would need to get the game to overtime would be a touchdown and an extra point.
Daniel Jones was luckily able to find his fullback- Chris Myarick for the much needed touchdown with time expiring. All they would need was an extra point and they would bring it to overtime.
Brian Daboll didn’t agree. As his balls began to expand in the same way the Grinch’s heart grew, the offense ran back out onto the field. They were lining up to go for the win.
Daboll’s balls grew too big for his pants and he was forced to open his zipper to let them out. The ball was snapped. Daboll’s balls hit the turf and Daniel Jones shovel passed it off to Saquon Barkley for two points and the win. Daboll tried to run on to the field to celebrate but his balls were weighing him down.
As his team celebrated the win, he had no choice but to watch while the Titans staff got him the wheelbarrow that they usually use to hold up Mike Vrabel’s balls on most other days.
Daboll’s balls are still at an egregious size to this day. Hopefully they go down before next week so the Giants can just have a nice peaceful game. But who knows. If there’s one thing in this world that’s unpredictable, it’s balls.
