For a team that won 23 games over the last four years they sure are held pretty high by some. I saw one post say they are set everywhere but qb. Everywhere? Really now. 5-11. 6-10. 7-9. 5-11. I know we’ve sucked too since then but that’s an odd take by some.
shot at Jones on a score prediction thread. Gotta love it!
He could have meant that a RB or WR fumbles.
I'm picturing a Jones fumble. Take that as a shot at Jones and the OL.
Ok well ya know I was trying to defend you. But honestly none of your opinions on Jones have been wrong. So while I’m going to try to be optimistic, I’ll tell you that you haven’t been wrong but at the same time I hope you end up eating crow. Because I’m a Giant fan.
Jones 2 turnovers and sacked 4 times. He’s out played by Teddy fucking Bridgewater who throws for 230 yards and 2 TD’s. Barkley long TD run in the 2nd quarter gets the home crowd excited for a bit. Quick turnaround on the road in DC 4 days later…
I don’t think this game should be close. The Giants are at home, which should be big as players are getting back to playing in front of fans. I think our defense is better. I think our defense will score. I think we have a lot more talent on this Giants team. I see the Giants as being better in all phases of the game.
No surprise here, as the Oline allows pressure from the start, and Jones is limited to short passes. We don’t set the edge constantly and allow several chunk runs early. By the second quarter we’re down 10-0 and Pound out a long drive, using Barkley outside with pitch outs, counter plays, with a bootleg by Jones for 20 or so. Down 10-7 at half, we come back out like “mad dogs” (as LT would say) and take it to them. A turn-over and a gadget play or two gives us a 14-10 lead, and we score two more touchdowns with a power running game with Penny spelling Barkley at RB and scoring twice. I see the final scoreboard 28-10…..and then I wake up!
Go Giants!
Seem to be a mixture of what fans want to happen and what fans think is likely to happen.
What may be of some interest from these predictions is the median spread of victory which is in the 6-7 point range (whether it's a Giants or Denver victory.) It think that's a pretty solid prediction. A one TD differential in this game "feels" about right!
Big emotional home opener. Fans are loud and disruptive. OL plays well. Jones directs game winning drive. Bridgewater is the QB that makes the critical mistakes in this one.

so I don't see them lighting up the NYG D. The Giants have a more balanced O with Barkley playing, and I think the OL will be OK today, especially if Chubb is out or plays on a bum ankle. So, I'll go with NYG 24 Den 17.
could go either way?
Can we create turnovers?
Can we move the ball enough to score some points
Can our QB not turn the ball over?
Are our skill position guys gonna be effective?
Tons of questions....
Since I will be there and we are due for an opening day win
DJ - 24-37, 246, 1 TD, 0 INTs
Darius Slayton - 4 catches, 67 yds, 1 TD
Adoree Jackson - 1 INT
This is the best roster we've had, top to bottom, in ten years. Coaching staff heads into the second years of their respective systems. OL had a solid preseason of work together unlike last year. DJ threw exactly 1 INT the second half of last season.

I like our chances today and this season.
Well I'm glad someone agrees with me about the roster thing. The back half of the roster is better than I ever remember it. We need an RT, a guard, and an explosive edge guy, but we are close as far as starters go. Adoree is a big question mark to me, if he can play up to his contract, the defense is going to be excellent.

Makes sense. I don’t think anyone sees the Giants being a team ready to blow someone out offensively, but our defense should be good enough to keep us in most games.
D plays better than score indicates as they're put in bad situations on a few occasions. I'd love to feel differently but until the O proves something...
Was off on the D but nailed the rest. Super psyched for 2021 baby!!!
He could have meant that a RB or WR fumbles.

17 BBIers are predicting a Giants win; 12 are predicting a Giants loss.
Interestingly, for those who are predicting a Giants win, the median margin of victory is 6 points.
And for those who are predicting a Giants loss, the median margin of defeat is 6.5 points.

Giants 100
Denver 0
Our most reliable player???? Say it ain't so!

Giants D gets a turnover in Giants' territory on Denver's final drive to ice the game.
It's a new year and anything is possible. (Plenty of time to be pessimistic later ;>)
NYG 13
Jones 2 turnovers and sacked 4 times. He’s out played by Teddy fucking Bridgewater who throws for 230 yards and 2 TD’s. Barkley long TD run in the 2nd quarter gets the home crowd excited for a bit. Quick turnaround on the road in DC 4 days later…
Get ready for the Monday Morning Armchair QB’s!!!!
Broncos held to 1 TD and 3 FGs
Giants defense gets 2 Interceptions and 2 Sacks and has Teddy running for his life all day
Game wasn't as close as the score indicated.
LFG Big Blue!
17-3 Giants.
24-16
Go Giants!
By my count
27 BBIers are predicting a Giants win; 19 are predicting a Giants loss.
For those who are predicting a Giants win, the median margin of victory is 6 points.
And for those who are predicting a Giants loss, the median margin of defeat is 7 points.
The median points scored by Giants (win or lose) = 20
The median points scored by Denver (win or lose) = 17

Big Emotional Win. Go Big Blue!!!

This is a game we should win. Take care of fucking business. Sick of these slow starts which below piss poor seasons. 1-0!
This would make....a lot of sense actually. That's how you set the tone for a season.

I can't believe I thought we'd win. I'm an idiot.
Wow - good work
