New York Giants head coach John Harbaugh took a spill while hugging running back Devin Singletary following his game-winning touchdown run in overtime during Sunday's 27-21 win over the Houston Texans.
Harbaugh told reporters on Monday that being tackled to the ground made him question his own athletic prowess.
"All I could think [while falling down] was, I felt like a total non-athlete," he said. "... I felt so weak... so pathetic. But once we were on the ground, it made all the sense in the world."
The win moved the Giants to 4-2-1 in Harbaugh's first season as New York's head coach, which probably made it a bit easier to look past his unfortunate tumble.
