As the man in charge of the Giants’ defense, Martindale has his hands full this wild-card week trying to figure out how to slow down the Vikings.
Wink Martindale has talked about his football legacy with his wife, Laura, and he has arrived at the conclusion that he does not need to be an NFL head coach before he is done.
, and if questioned by the news media about such opportunities, the personable Martindale would have loved the opportunity to engage and playfully deflect. Upper-case Wink would have answered those questions with a smile and a lower-case wink.He didn’t get the chance because no team, to date, has requested an interview with the man who took a run at the Giants job three years ago, only to lose out to Joe Judge.
“We’ve had 19 different guys this year on the roster that’s got a sack,” Martindale said. “That’s crazy.” “It is fun because it’s not just one person making plays,” said Dexter Lawrence. “It’s the whole defense making plays, and guys you love to play with making plays. And it’s good to see that different excitement levels, different celebrations. Those things go along with an attacking style of defense.
After the Minnesota loss, Martindale headed to the back of the Giants plane and told his men, “We’ve got a playoff defense, guys. We just got beat by a buzzer beater at half-court.”
