It's clear that we will need to re-evaluate our expectations for the Giants' season after these first two games. Sure, the 2007 Giants overcame an 0-2 start, but they were competitive after Dallas and competitive for at least a half against Green Bay. The 2017 Giants have been competitive for... a quarter so far?
I know a lot of change, both for the worst and for the better, but these are my predictions going forward.
Near-certain losses
Week 3 at Eagles
Week 6 at Broncos
Week 11 vs Chiefs
Week 13 at Raiders
Most likely to be losses
Week 4 at Buccaneers
Week 7 vs Seahawks
Week 12 at Redskins
Week 15 vs Eagles
Could go either way
Week 5 vs Chargers
Week 9 vs Rams
Week 14 vs Cowboys
Week 16 at Cardinals
Week 17 vs Redskins
Should win, but would a loss really shock you?
Week 10 at 49ers
Final Prediction: Anywhere from 3-13 to 6-10
If you lose to the Eagles, and then have to travel to Tampa, and possibly lose there, it can easily snowball....
How the hell did this happen so quickly?

There's a saying. "If you're not getting better, you're getting worse." As the Giants did nothing to try to improve the offensive line, this quote seems to ring true.
We should be able to win against one of the LA teams, the Niners. I could see a trap game win against one of our division rivals too depending on their situations. I struggle to see us getting to 6 wins for sure. I think 3-5 wins is the range.
The Seahawks almost lost to the 49ers at home. You think they are a good team?
That NYG/SF game might be an epic encounter.
I'm high on Webb, but right now we know very little of what the future holds for him in the NFL.
Ding, ding.
#4. And we drafted an OG in the second round who went to four Pro Bowls, back when the team seemed to know how to draft/scout OL.
