Go on the record: is this season over?

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 9/17/2018 1:36 pm
For all intents & purposes.

I'm looking at the schedule-always dangerous I know due to injuries-but I'm seriously thinking we could be looking at an 0-7 start before possibly picking up a win vs. the Skins before the bye. Good God.

& just looking at the remaining 8 games, I can easily see a repeat record of last season or possibly even worse.

I need a stiff drink badly.

If they don't start to play "professionally" on the OL, It'll come super fast
What would lead anyone to think

This team will improve enough to win ANY game? They were so severely out coached vs Dallas ( a mediocre team at best) that they were non COMPETATIVE - again! They aren't close to playing winning football and when the losing and injuries start taking their toll ( C gone for the year, Apple likely out for awhile) they may get further away not closer. I think winning 2 or 3 games will be a big challenge this year.
The schedule is a monster.

Right now I don't see the wins anywhere.
It's not over in a weak division

right now. I don't see the Cowboys, Skins or Eagles being exponentially better than the Giants to the point that they won't split the series as the season goes on. However, the other games are pretty rough. Next week is as close to a must-win as could be though. This team could very well start collapsing after an 0-3 start. At 1-2 you're right back in the mix in the division.

But to the original question. No, it's not over yet. One game at a time. (unfortunately, my optimism lately has had some detrimental effects. haha)
Hard to see how they fix the OL

It’s a fatal flaw. We’ve seen this before.
I’ve waited months to see this team

I can’t give up now. But it’s hard dealing with the constant and endless disappointment. Every week it’s a gut shot since September last season.
RE: the good news is that the other bad teams already have their QBs

Actually a good point. And seriously look around the nfl there aren’t many teams in desperate need of a qb, at least on paper and right now anyway. This will change in 2-3 seasons but for now, not many.
Not quite yet  
Matt M. : 9/17/2018 10:54 pm : link
But, another loss or two and it is for sure.
No...

I get your analysis but I think it is a bit of wishful/glass half full thinking. You know as much as the next guy that this game is won on the line of scrimmage. We cannot run block, we cannot pass protect, and we cannot even touch the QB on defense. That is not a formula for success in any division.

Now, about the weak division comment. That is fine if you are talking about how they will fare against the rest of the league but WE do not match up well against these teams. Dallas can obviously stop our offense and the Eagles have a better defense than the Cowboys.

I am not really sure where that splitting the div series stuff is coming from after getting man-handled by a weak Dallas team, while the Eagles are much better and the Redskins we don't know about but have looked much better than the G-men (who hasn't)!
Good lord

the season is not over after 2 games. They are 1 game out of first. Lots of football still to be played.
