Prospects of going 3-0

MartyNJ1969 : 9/12/2022 9:54 am
I really think we have a good chance to go 3-0. Dak is out at least 4-6 weeks. Baker Mayfield is nothing to write home about. We are playing at home next two weeks.

It would be great if Olari and thibs are back for cowbow game on Monday night.



You have to go 2-0 first

CMac will be used more like Treylon Burks/Dontrell Hilliard were for Tennessee and both those guys exposed holes in pass defense.
Jones has to be much better  
JonC : 9/12/2022 9:57 am : link
as do special teams.
I don't think the Panthers are a sure win.  
an_idol_mind : 9/12/2022 9:57 am : link
This team isn't good enough for me to feel confident about any given Sunday yet.
One game at a time, Marty

The Panthers will be seething after losing yesterday......  
Simms11 : 9/12/2022 9:58 am : link
they too have a RB in McCaffery that can reak havoc as well, and we do not have the ILBs to stick with him. Wink is going to have to devise a better plan to contain him next week. The Giants can’t take any team for granted. They are not that good yet either and hopefully don’t read their clippings this week.
I'm sorry  
M.S. : 9/12/2022 9:59 am : link

but this is getting way ahead of ourselves IMHO.
Stop chirping.

the opener, with the new regime. MetLife is going to be on fire on Sunday.

Carolina should only thing on our mind.

Next up....1 week at a time
also have the Bears week 4

just sayin...
This is probably the easiest schedule  
bceagle05 : 9/12/2022 10:06 am : link
I've seen the Giants play, so I expect the win total to be a little higher than it should be. Whether that's good or bad for the long term, I dunno.

5-0. First loss to the Ravens. Defense is strong and getting guys back. Starting two rookies on OL...who are going to get better.

It's not likely to happen...But tell me who of Car, Dal, GB or Chi is going to be strongly favored over the Giants? My guess is the Giants will be 4-2 coming out of the Ravens game.



I saw our #1 Georgia LT and our #1 Bama Right Tackle  
MartyNJ1969 : 9/12/2022 10:08 am : link
some dude named Ezeuka pancaking Titans D lineeman in 4th qtr.

They dominated the 4th quarter. This team is going to win alot of games if they can rush for 150+ yds a game.

That should be the teams focus...fans can look ahead.
We have lost too much over last 10 years to think one game at a time  
MartyNJ1969 : 9/12/2022 10:12 am : link
I am thinking and excited about the future. Look ahead for next 3 weeks. not just what's right in front of you.
Fans can dream but I hope the players are only focused week to week.  
Ivan15 : 9/12/2022 10:13 am : link
Carolina game will be tough. The coach, QB and the team are under a lot of pressure.

Somebody could get fired there by midseason. I wonder what Rhule’s buyout deal is.
4-0, 7-3, 10-7  
shyster : 9/12/2022 10:22 am : link
are realistic goals.

Said in one of the many prediction threads that 8 wins would not surprise me with this schedule, and that was counting Titans and home Dallas game as losses.

If Jones stays healthy. Big if.
Carolina  
George : 9/12/2022 10:24 am : link
Played better yesterday than I thought they would. Baker can be lights out good at times, but then suck balls the next week. Which one will we see on Sunday?
Carolina  
Toth029 : 9/12/2022 10:29 am : link
Looked good yesterday but Vrabel is Lombardi compared to Rhule and McAdoo.
calm down  
DTgiants : 9/12/2022 10:29 am : link
can we please take one game at a time!

Carolina OL is nothing like Tennessee.

Hopefully Thibodeaux or Ojulari can play.

But this is SILLY if you are taking us seriously, because the bears just beat a 49ers team that made the conference championship last year. It just shows week one is always whacky. I mean the Jags&Lions looked a lot better and the Packers and Cowboys seem horrible. Lets see how we do next week before we start making the 19-0 predictions.

One game at a time please. All off season all I heard was how bad we were going to suck. Our QB was awful, we have no talent. Now we are jumping 2 weeks ahead already. Enjoy the victory, Mondays are always better after a victory.

Why? We are fans - we can look ahead 10 games and it would have no bearing on the season.
Our focus should be 2-0

Browns. Giants LT and RT are going to destroy the Panthers D line with a home game. Panthers D Line looked like Pussies out there against a mediocre Browns OL.
really hope we get atleast one of our pass rushers back  
UConn4523 : 9/12/2022 10:47 am : link
for Carolina. Some pressure will hopefully make Mayfield shit his pants.
I predicted a Titans win followed by an ugly Panthers loss  
Sean : 9/12/2022 10:49 am : link
I’ll stand by that. I just want to be 4-4 at the bye which I think is doable *if* Jones plays better.
Did anyone see the Ezeku block on Barkley first TD  
MartyNJ1969 : 9/12/2022 10:50 am : link
He friggin sealed and pancaked the Titans DL into the Nose guard. I had not see that in a long time from a giants guard

Right?!

I never understood why so many believe that the fans need to concentrate on only the next game...
,,,cos, focus, and stuff~
We have the makings of an outstanding OL with more reps  
MartyNJ1969 : 9/12/2022 10:58 am : link
Ezeku, Neal and Thomas were blowing the entire D Line off the ball when it mattered most in the 4th quarter and their DL is one of the best in the league. This group is going to be formidable and tear this league up in the future. The Beneficiaries are Barkley and the rest of the DB's. IF we run and do ball control for over 30 minutes a game..we will win most games this season.
He is right +1 with Bears at home in week 4  
Snablats : 9/12/2022 10:59 am : link
Tennessee is better than Carolina. Wink should replace one of our crappy MLBs with a 3rd safety to spy McCaffrey because Carolina doesnt have Henry at RB

Then Dallas with no Dak and the Bears. This team has the realistic opportunity to be 4-0

Will Thibs and Ojulari return, that is the big question

No way a letdown happens with this coaching staff. Daboll is the sh*T!!!
Baker holds on to the ball for a long time  
Giants73 : 9/12/2022 11:12 am : link
Hopefully, Ajeez and Thibs are back. Their speed Should help with sacks and and dump offs

Let’s get to 2-0.

When was the earliest the Giants got to 2 wins in the last 5 seasons?
Difference between us and Carolina right now is that  
Metnut : 9/12/2022 11:22 am : link
our opponent missed a 49 yard FG at the buzzer and their opponent hit a 60 yard FG at the buzzer.

Game is going to be a dog fight versus a desperate team and a desperate coach. Giants can certainly win the game, but they'll need to play well and improve on a few things from yesterday.

Will be much more fun to watch this game with us at 1-o rather than 0-1. No denying that.
I know what Marty means!

A win makes everyone want to show up and practice a little harder, try a little harder, heal a little faster, play through the small pain, pay attention better, be less of a me-first player and more of a team player. A win changes the mindeset.

So maybe if we get one or both of our pass rushers back, people continue to pump up Ezeudu and Jones....we can get this one Sunday and then it starts to snowball up.

Winning is the best deodorant!

Exactly,, Also, the winning gives the coaches the latitiude to decide if Thibs and or Oluri need another week to get ready...IMO it would be better to unleash them against Cowboys on MNF. Shock the rest of the country and Cowboys the Giants have arrived with Cooper Rush on his fanny
