This eagles curse has to end  
PA Aggie : 10/22/2020 9:15 am : link
I hate Dallas...but love them compared to the eagles. I don't care if it takes a bad ref call to win the game, we need to win this game for a multitude of reasons. The only saving grace I can feel, is that the coaching staff and many of the players are so new that they don't feel the losing streak like former players or Giant fans. We as fans, have been living through this eagle losing streak too long; getting pounded, us making a terrible mistake, or them getting a miracle play or field goal...this has to end. Now is as good a time as any. (My only game two-cents is that I would like to see Jones run a bit more whether it is bailing out of the pocket, or a designed play.) Go Giants!

It's good to feel like there's an important game to look forward to, at least. But yeah, we've fallen for this before.

We need Garrett to get his head out of his ass for this one. Get Jones out of the pocket, and get him running the football himself.

If we stand Jones up in the pocket scanning the field, the eagles are going to get a defensive touchdown.



You act like he hasn't been doing that. He even ran for it in the red zone. Aside from that TD and a couple of decent passes ; his only plays were on runs against WFT. They came up short in the red zone and had to kick a little chip shot field goal after a 15 yard run . Hard for me to fathom a guy who cannot pass in the NFL. A pro league! Either the league has become Bush league or this QB is bush league. This whole look-to-run is a college QB technique for QBs who can't pass with accuracy beyond 10 yards ... I immediately turn college games like that off. It's boring. Hopefully what John Gruden did against the Chiefs last Sunday sowed he had the winning ticket and we can get back to good football again.

Answer: HE HAS BEEN. JONES HAS BEEN RUNNING THE BALL A LOT WITH DESIGNED RUNS.

How many times do you want Jones to run with it?

More. Obviously. The passing game has clearly been terrible. You don't have WRs getting open or playing consistent football at all. The offensive line is deeply inconsistent and might soon be featuring two rookie tackles. It doesn't matter if you don't like the look and feel of it as a product. This is the 31st ranked offense in a league of 32 teams. They have 1 win but might somehow have an opportunity to win a division. Find something that works and use it.
i want to feel good  
djm : 10/22/2020 9:36 am : link
but no, not yet. I am hopeful but and I do think there's a shot at a fun november/december but the Giants still need to win a big division game first before I completely buy in. I won't lie, I would not be betting the Giants tonight no matter what the spread is or how banged up Philly is. Go out there and prove it.

What does winning the division have to do with it?

You are not seriously looking at a play off run with these Bush leaguers?

What would be the point of the clubbing that this team is going to get against the 49ers or Packers or whoever?

You said it yourself this offense stinks. And the defense is not much better.

ugh...  
Dnew15 : 10/22/2020 9:56 am : link
I feel like I'm stuck between a rock and hard place on this one.

I hate the Eagles - like a lot.

The Giants HAVE to start winning games against them, just to reshape the mindset and culture of losing against them.

At the same time, every win keeps the Giants closer to keeping the front office intact. Which, I believe is a bad thing.

Yuck.
Feel good?  
King Quis : 10/22/2020 10:04 am : link
No! The offense sucks. I thought it was a great idea to have Garrett as an OC since he’s helped two Young quarterbacks be good early in Dak and Romo but looks like Danny is somewhat regressing under Garrett and it’s given me second thoughts
Giants are 4.5 underdogs  
armstead98 : 10/22/2020 10:05 am : link
That converts to winning chances about 1 out of 3. That line feels about right to me.

Not massive underdogs but also not likely they win.

I'll be rooting for them though. We need to see better oline play and the defense needs to be dialed in.
I'm feeling good  
UberAlias : 10/22/2020 11:38 am : link
Not necessarily saying we will win because Eagles are the more talented team. But I expect us to compete and see it as winable. If we get blown out I would be surprised and won't be shocked to see us get the W, though not necessarily predicting it.

Regardless of what I think, clearly they are trying to win games. If you're about winning, then you have to identify any way possible to get something out of this offense and do it till someone stops it.

ryanmkeane : 10/22/2020 1:38 pm : link
it's baffling to me when fans scoff at winning the division even if we have a shitty record. Fuck yeah I want to win the division, we've been a doormat against Dallas and Philly for way too long now. Something has to change. And, anything can happen in the playoffs. Odds are the winner of the NFC East will get bounced by a superior team, but it's bullshit to say they wouldn't be able to win. Look at Seattle against the Saints that one year. It happens.
