So went to Met game with son-in-law last night big Cowboy

Fan. He thinks Cowboys will bounce back strong this weekend and that nobody plays well against Denver. Feels Elliott should probably be sitting. Not totally sold on Dak. More worried about how OL plays this year.
Wants us to beat Eagles. Sees division as wide open even though we have not looked good. Expects us to play better once OBJ is at full strength. He thinks Eli given time can still hurt a defense. Thinks Giants need to figure out how to run ball a little. Interesting perspective.
He sounded cautiously optimistic about Cowboys chances to repeat because of OL changes and defensive secondary.
He is no expert for sure but thinks McAdoo needs to change it up because Giants are predictable on offense.
The loss at Denver was overwrought

as was the win over the Giants. Many opposing teams look bad playing in Denver. The Giants will get theirs down the pike. A disaster reel coming to your den. I think it's safe to say that the AFC West has it over the NFC East , but Philadelphis was respectable in defeat last week in KC. The Redskins have a chance to establish their bonafides this week against the Raiders.

For the Giants these games are nightmarish because all the AW teams rush the quarterback . So even the Chargers are threatening because they come off the edge so hard.
I Never Understood Why BBI Posters Quote Fans of Other Teams...

As if they had some extra special insight.

Think of all the people you know that claim to be Giants fans and then start asking them detailed questions about the NYG. Chances are you'll find out soon enough that they don't know what they're talking about.

Now imagine that the same Giants fan shared his insights about the Giants with a Cowboys' fan and that Cowboys' fan shared it on his team's fan message board. Those "Giants insights" would be just about as important as those shared by the OP in this thread.

Never realized why people like you scrutinize every single post. You must lead a very boring life.
Why should we care?

I talked to some other asshole he said some asshole thing I just can't wait to tell you all. This place is fucking dead.
What's worse though - asshole word of mouth

or asshole Facebook post?

I'm thinking "I saw on Facebook" should be met with the same acrimony as 'would you like to hear more about this timeshare presentation'.
Cowboy fan as son-in-law?
