Next five games heading into the bye
vs Bears
@Packers (London)
vs Ravens
@Jaguars
@ Seahawks
BYE
Next week is certainly winnable. But those three games @GB, vs BAL, @ JAX is a tough stretch. Going to be facing some good QB's in Rodgers, Jackson and Lawrence. The Jags are not pushovers, Pederson has them playing good ball. They steamrolled the Chargers on Sunday.
If they can get to 3-1 it would be huge. Hopefully Toney and Robinson can go on Sunday. Unfortunately, I don't see LW being back until maybe the Jags or Seahawks game.
Realistically, looking at the roster, esp on offense and the absence of LW, I would not be shocked if they lost to GB, BAL and JAX. The team is still bereft of talent in so many key areas, and key guys like Toney, Robinson and LW being out only compounds the situation with the lack of depth across the board.
I want competitive football and a good draft pick next year.
Agree, I think 4-4 is something we as fans should be hopeful for.
Jags lost to Washington by six points. They shut the Colts out (who then went on to beat KC this weekend) and went to LA and took the Chargers to the woodshed. Pederson is already doing wonders that Urban Meyer could never do for Lawrence. That will not be an easy game at all.
I wouldn't call them a top team, but they DID just hang 38 on the Chragers.
Packers have a strong D developing and running game. I actually like the Giants chances against Ravens more.

Jaguars looked putrid week 1, but now they're some kind of top team? Lol okay.

Herbert also lookrd 50% at best
Yep. NFL is week to week sometimes but Giants have little margin for error on roster turnover occurring and depth.
I think most of us saw 6 wins and that’s where it’s heading.
and that assumes we beat da Bears.
I don't think we have another gear.

This is silly. They can’t go into Seattle and win? Come on.
"These are my kind of guys Charlie! My kind of guys!"
We will very likely get rocked when we play good teams. It's ok. We are not good this year. And we we weren't trying to be good. This is basically year zero. We will try to put some things in place and hope our young guys pop. Next year we will really start building
