Giants have started 0-2 or worse in four consecutive seasons

Eric from BBI : Admin : 9/10/2021 5:56 pm
Ouch.
We have good chances to be 2-0  
SirLoinOfBeef : 9/10/2021 6:01 pm : link
this season IMO. The defense is going to have to play great in order to make this happen. Special teams as well. The offense is going to take some time to gel.

I hope we don't see the defensive lay an egg on the opposing teams opening drive as usual. It need to set the tone for the game and season- Urgency.
NOWHERE TO GO BUT UP!

3 keys  
Hilary : 9/10/2021 6:07 pm : link
I think the keys are the health of Adore Jackson and
play of left guard and right tackle

The Giants have another opportunity to give a Gettleman managed NY team its first ever winning record on Sunday.
Yeah, baby!

How is that relevant to this Sunday or year?

Or am I missing something and you’re just pointing out a fact?
Giants have won 3 games in September in last 4 years

It means the organization has been a complete shit show for years. You would think, or hope, it would change sooner or later.

I think they win Sunday. 18-12. If they don't. Oh well.
2-0 would be great

1-1 beating WFT and your in good shape.

0-2 most likely causes meltdowns with Fire Dave, Jones is a bust, Thomas should play the drums, Judge talks too much, Mara needs to sell, etc. threads.

I actually see us start 0-2 and will probably stay away from this place until the Falcons game. We lose that game and I'll join everyone in the ranting.

Both the Broncos and the Giants are going to be better than people think this year, book it. Of course only one of us can win Sunday.
Denver is very much improved  
5BowlsSoon : 9/10/2021 6:48 pm : link
Last year they had plenty of long injuries…this weekend, they are very healthy. They look formidable and although some would say at QB, they seem to have no real weaknesses. Great WRs and TE. Great front 7 on defense. OL looks good. RB good.

If we lose, I won’t be jumping off the Empire State Bldg because these guys are legit too. Last year was unusual because of injuries and inconsistent qb play.

Following week in Washington- obviously a coin flip.

We can go 0-2 but we also can go 2-0. I will be happy with 1-1.

Go Giants

I hope the Defense is ready to roll. This is going to be a very close game, 4th quarter game.

Since 2017. The Giants have never has a winning record at any time during the season. Not certain, but they might be the only team in league to have done that

Wow, that is unbelievable. I don't think we're the only one though. Terrible
Why do we keep looking in the rearview mirror?

1st....last year might be the only relative historical year that is connected to this crew.

New coaching staff....wipes out rebuilds, wipes out any other teams record....its not relative.

We are all aware where this team has been the past decade. But This staff enters its 2nd year.....
Since the NFL went to 16 games in 1978 the Giants are  
gogiants : 9/10/2021 11:57 pm : link
one of only four teams that had only one streak of 4 non-winning seasons. Those are the Ravens, Chiefs, Giants and Steelers. All other teams have had multiple streaks with many being 5 or more non-winning seasons. Eleven teams have had a streak of double digit non-winning seasons. Add in the Giants being the only team to win a Super Bowl in each of the last 4 decades. It has been a wonderful stretch Giant fans. So much negativity of what have you done for me lately. I for one am looking forward to winning our 2020's Super Bowl to keep the streak alive.
If the 0 line fails…..  
thrunthrublue : 9/11/2021 12:06 am : link
It’s an easy 0-2 result by next Friday…..simple as that. Jones on his back = goose eggs.

I totally agree, and I think people are taking the Broncos lightly. That team has a lot of good players and a good coaching staff. If Bridgewater plays well they are going to be a tough out.
1-0

I liked the start of the 2016 season. Great times in America. Giants go into Dallas, win. Giants host the Saints, win. Surprised they went 11-5.

The Giants are 1-9 in their last 10 openers. That's worst in the NFL the past 10 years.
gogiants  
arniefez : 9/11/2021 9:36 am : link
The Giants have won the NFC East 3 times in the last 20 years. 18 of those years they didn't win a single playoff game.

In those 20 years the Giants won 2 Super Bowls. Their HC and their QB are going got be in the NFL HOF. Their DE already is. But to make some case that the Giants are some kind of model NFL winning franchise is BS.

I've been a Giant fan for about 60 years and with the exception of the Parcells years the Giants have been bad way more than they've been good and the past decade is bordering on the Wellington lost weekend from 1965-1980.

This s**t has to stop before you get a bunch of happy talk here.

George, I don't know why that's such a difficult concept.

It's as if a team that sucks for a certain number of years, it's always going to suck. Regardless of new coaching staff, major infusion of talent, young players developing, etc., it's going to suck forever! Why? Because it's sucked for years!
I'm all for 0-6

then they fire Gettleman and hire our savior: Jimmy Googs

as long as Jimmy stays on BBI for his whole tenure.

arniefez : 9/11/2021 2:48 pm : link
This is the s**t I'm talking about. Why? BECAUSE WE ALL SAT THROUGH IT. IT'S BEEN A F**CKING DECADE of this crap and the spin and excuses are BS.

I was listening to the Papa and Banks podcast Bleav. Good listen and considering both are on the payroll a pretty objective conversation. But when they started talking about Jones and the point was made by Banks that this is his 3rd season and he sees the same questionable decision making. But Papa says let's consider it his 2nd season because last year it was a new offense.

WTF? Last year Jones showed absolutely nothing. He's was horrid. At least in year one there were some big plays to get excited about and to somewhat balance out the turnovers. But according to Papa that didn't happen because Jason Garrett wasn't the OC? How can anyone take that seriously?

No more grading on a curve, no more moral victories, no more excuses for bad draft picks, bad coaching and bad playing.

Right now the Giants are exactly what the past 3 years of this GMs record says they are. If 2021 is anything like the past 3 years the home games are going get very ugly. A large majority of the fan base has had enough. The owners know it too.
Giants fans who have had enough...

Ok, so the Detroit Lions at no point had a winning record from 1946 through 1949, so the Giants current streak isn’t the first!

Don’t ask me how I figured that out.
