Harsh Reality

GNewGiants : 10/24/2021 4:09 pm
The Panthers are an awful team who had a lot of injuries like us. The reality we aren’t nearly this good. And wins like this are false realities that may keep the wrong people in charge.

If this win led to a playoff potential, it would be great - but I have a feeling a lot of false sense of realities will kick in.

Ironic thin is, prior to the game, all the praise was to Rhule and the Panthers squad.

The Giants had a struggling defense, their LT and C out, Barkley absent, and three of their most reliable receivers out. And won by 22.

Yes, because losing out on Chase Young for Andrew Thomas sure set the team back.
What a goof.

Who gives a shit about draft position ? They drafted Toney at 20 and Ojulari at 51 . Both guys look really good so far . If you are good at drafting it doesn't matter where you draft

No one is saying we are championship or playoff level..a win is a win!  
edavisiii : 10/24/2021 4:24 pm : link
It is hard to win a game in the NFL. Even the worse teams have some talent. This was a good win because the defense showed some life. To only give up 3 points is a good game no matter who it is against. Daniel Jones looked good. Big Plus! Peart played well, Engram played well, Dante Pettis might have saved his career! We got pressure, something that has been non-existent.

The interior of the OL still sucks but this win was a step in the right direction.

Panthers are an “awful team” all of a sudden, when a few weeks ago we had posters saying their turnaround was one of the better rebuilds in the NFL. Guess when we beat the shit out of them at home with our entire offense out, some BBI fans have to say something negative

I disagree - winning football games is critical to help reverse a culture of losing. Much more important than draft position.

This. The Panthers are not an awful team. They are struggling as of late but they are well coached and have talent on both sides of the ball. Today was a solid win.

Blue21 : 10/24/2021 4:33 pm : link
less to fix. If we go 1-16 we ain't fixing this team in one draft. I never understand people wanting to play and loose for draft position.
I'm not going to make too much of this game,  
Bill in UT : 10/24/2021 4:35 pm : link
but it probably showed that we shouldn't count on getting the first pick in the draft

Walker Gillette : 10/24/2021 4:42 pm : link
and enjoy the win and maybe lay off the crazy negativity for a week and if they lose to the Chiefs(which is not the lock it once was if Mahomes is out) we can get right back to ripping everyone apart and saying the Giants are the greatest embarrassment in sporting history. Nobody thinks this win is vaulting the team into super bowl contention and if they are as bad as they frequently look Gettleman's job isn't going to be saved by one win in October!
GTFO of here with this Miserable Mary bullshit

Fuck me, can't go an hour of enjoying a win w/out some asshole posting shit like this
So what?  
Breeze_94 : 10/24/2021 4:45 pm : link
Giants won this game by a wide margin. The defense looked like we thought it would. Even if Panthers are bad, the Giants played exactly like a good defense would against a bad team- allowing under 200 yards and only 3 points.

In a lost season, you hope to see growth- especially from the young players. Ojulari, Williams, Lawrence, and McKinney are 4 core players on this defense and they balled today.

Offensively, it was a bit ugly but Jones played well with not much help. At least we have the return of Barkley, Toney, Thomas, Golladay, and Shepard to look forward to on that side of the ball.

Personally, I’m pleased that they won and did so by a significant margin

Personally, coming into this year  
Dave on the UWS : 10/24/2021 4:53 pm : link
I wanted to see young players improve, and the team get better every week. Today, we saw many young players take some steps. Even Peart, by and large, wasn't bad at LT. He has a lot to learn, is "really" raw, but there's talent there.
Garrett did what we expect a good OC to do. Play to what your offense "CAN DO", moving the pocket, quick throws, some power zone runs. Don't let Jones be a sitting duck.

The "toxic" Coach is the one that got the team to rally itself after last week's blowout and beat the guy that all the "experts" said the Panthers beat the Giants out of for HC.

It may turn out to be a one off win, but if ever a team and coach needed a win, it was this team and this staff. None of which should prevent the GM from losing his job at year's end, if not sooner.

That's one way of putting it.The Giants were the Giants.There's nothing they did today which they haven't done all year.With the exception of the Jones Hospital ball.

And I enjoyed every touchdown and even every field goal they kicked. And I enjoyed the safety.

And BTW, on Pro Football Talk every week Chris Simms has been talking up the Panthers as a good team not to be overlooked.
Gettleman won’t be here..

But, it is fair to wonder about Abrams or Pettit as GM. If this team goes 6-11, is Abrams elevated?

The Giants last 3 Super Bowl victories were only by a total of 8 points. Could have easily lost all 3.

Actually getting a top tier edge rusher or OT is what this team needs and a high pick helps that.

Is 3-3 a good record? Their wins were against the Jets, Saints, and Texans. We also beat the Saints, and I think we'd probably beat the Jets and Texans, too.

I'm pretty sure most posters here are savvy enough to pay attention not only to the record, but also the strength of schedule. Do you disagree?
