Each year I hope we will be playing meaningful football games in December. Many here seem to have already given up on the season. If we are as bad as some say, the December 15, game vs. Miami could be a big game for the franchise.
I see the Cowboy game as one game. I still think this team can be good, but clearly they are a long way from beating Dallas based on this week.
The defense is young and COULD improve. The offense showed some good potential vs a very good defense. It's hard to play offense when you sit for 20 minutes between possessions while the other team drives the length of the field.
I still believe that the end of season matchups with the Eagles can be meaningful games. Although I hoped for a win yesterday, 0-1 was always more likely. The next three games will give a good indication of where they stand.
I continue to hope the two December games vs Philly will have meaning this year.
Hahahahahaha.
True. Let me say, "Contending for a playoff spot".
Keeping your expectations low means never being dissapointed.
Yeah, I hear ya.
it's also a ridiculously low bar these days. With 6 playoff teams in each conference and the regular season ending late in the month you can be 5-7 and still playing "meaningful games" in December.
We play the Vikings at home week 5 and the Pats in New England week 6. Then a 10 day break. I think the Giants will change to Jones for sure if we are 2-4 and probably if we are 3-3.
There is no margin for error for Eli. He played well on Sunday - but it won't matter if we are losing.
Good luck with that! Using that phrase use in Dec in same sentence with "NY Giants" would be a miracle!

Buffalo, Tampa and Wash are all saying the same thing about playing the giants.

in that Buffalo, Tampa, and Washington are all games that you certainly CAN win and probably SHOULD win, and really MUST win if you are going to be a playoff team.

100% agree. They absolutely believe they will beat the Giants. These are the games that make you a 500 team. You need to pick up to get into contention and win a couple vs the better teams to get to the playoffs.
if you can beat a few teams that your basically equal to
you can grab a wildcard spot . Lets beat Buffalo
first before we talk the 2020 draft already my God .
