Dan Duggan @DDuggan21 I know it's crazy to talk about the Super Bowl for a 3-13 team. But I spoke to a ton of people around the league last week and the overwhelming sentiment is they can turn things around quickly Dan Duggan @DDuggan21 The Eagles went from last place in the NFC East to Super Bowl champs in one year. How the Giants can duplicate that turnaround |
Two years ago the Giants were 11-5.
Who needs beat writers.....
As I've said on multiple threads, most people including so-called experts, thought our roster this past year was good enough to compete for playoffs, maybe even the SB. The main concern was the OL.
Our record last year should be thrown out the window. It was largely due to bad coaching, play calling and OL.
I think we upgraded our GM and HC, possibly significantly. And it is very possible they can upgrade our OL, roster and turn it around quickly.

Are you really thinking we are more like 2016 or more like 2013, 2014, 2015 and 2017?
In three of the last four years the Giants were one of the most injured teams in the league (if not the most injury-riddled team). The one year they enjoyed good health they went 11-5 and made the playoffs.
I could see us being a playoff team in '18.
guess is we are likely 5-11 or 6-10. Looking at the opponents for 2018, I think they go 1-7 or 2-6 on the road and 4-4 at home. I’m expecting another top 10 pick in April of 2019.
+2
Two LBers would be grand.
It can be argued that we could have won Games 2, 3, 4, 5, 10, 12, 13 and 15.
The coaching staff was a mess and player attitude was poor to say the least. The Oline was a festering pile of dog shit turnstiles...
I think with some right moves we could be moving forward and could get in the playoffs. The FA period will be a big step in that direction.
I truely belive with a healthy OBJ we would have won closer to 6 games.
we are closer to a middle of the pack team then peiple realize and we upgraded both units bringing in 2 new inovative modern systems and have high draft picks. We can jump back in thr playoffs and always have a chance.
All outcomes are on the table. If you don't believe that (in either direction), you're ignoring reality.
The Giants have talent. I mean big whoop-so does everybody else. The Giants have receivers, actually . And 2 defensive tackles , one of whom will have to play DE in 18, to prevent teams from honking it up inside , as Parcells used to say. Except against Philadelphia and Dallas, that is.

You're the one who mentioned "two years ago."

Well, if you do a roster comparison, you'll find far more players on the current roster from the 16 team than the 13, 14, and 15 teams. I think 17 was an outlier caused primarily by McAdoo with Reese's support.
Not the QB. Journeyman Nick Foles just took them to the Promise land, we have Eli Manning who is better.
The difference is the O-line, theirs is one of the best, if not the best - ours STINKS.
Fix the O-line and we can go from 11-5 to a serious championship run (3-13 was an aberration).
I was wondering whether next year's O-line might be - Wheeler, Dunker, Jones, Jerry/Fluker/player to be named, and Flowers.
