I’ve been a big proponent of “there are no meaningless games” and “it’s good for the young guys to feel like they are part of a winner” blah blah. The collapse in the 2nd half v the Iggs both made me realize the depth of the team’s ineptness and how wrong I was. It’s time to lose and turn their no. 1 or 2 overall pick into a big haul.
Giants have Miami, Skins, Iggs left. Bengals have NE, Dolphins, Browns left. Not sure whether the Bengals can beat Miami and/or the Browns, but it’s possible. And with Miami having three no. 1s this year, and likely coveting Burrow, this is a huge opportunity.
The Eli Show is just a bunch of old repeats; and let Jones get completely healed up...
Yep. And Shurmur will always find a way to lose.
This week will be the first time ever I’ll be rooting against them. Oyy.
In my delusional brain, I still sort of viewed the Giants as a proud franchise in the Steelers vein that maybe could rise up over these last games ... that died when 1. Boston Scott ran over them and 2. they didn’t cover Ertz on the goal line.
GIANTS don't suck! The coaching staff sucks. You want to build an offense around a mediocre QB, Eli clone that's a tad bit blessed with speed.... But you have the best RB in the league and he's not getting enough touches to make an impact. Football Never Changes....the run will open the pass. Help the QB out!! ImJustSaying: They put 7 in the box; RB is hot right now. And Saquon in open space; one-on-one; I will take that bet, and raise you two!! We don't even run a screen to settle the d-line down....wait...maybe I should coach huh? First 3 picks need to be Defense, trade 2-7 rounds and a 4th for a 3 pick at least. 4 top round picks DE, CB, cover OlB, speed WR for a deep threat. Our DT's are Good, just need someone who's gonna force a double team.
Oh and by the way if they manage to somehow win 1, they are probably so bad they still pick #2 overall.
If so, do we pick Young at one or do we move down, if we did how far down could we go and still get Young? I don’t follow college, so is there anyone comparable to Young?
DG knows what he is doing.
Agree they will not tank. But its foolish to think there will not be a few half-assed efforts out there between now and end of the season. In same mode as that moron safety we had last year that didnt want to tackle vs Dallas in the last game...Riley?
Lets see who does it...
They have lost 35 of last 45 and have lost 9 in a row. They do a good job of losing on their own to where the tank is not needed.
And finish 2 - 14.
Just look at Miami. Everyone said they were tanking. Once the game started, the players played.
I know it's a thin line, but on the other hand, sitting starters with even a slight injury, and going out of your way to evaluate and give experience to important rookies when you chances at a playoff are nil would be smart football and somethings the fans would understand.
its a fallacy ............
Meanwhile, we read essentially this same post EVERY DAY.
None of the coaches or players, maybe Gettleman. But if you believe John Mara would go through Gettleman to tank, I believe you are very wrong about that
