Rich Eisen's best case scenario for NYG in '24...

SFGFNCGiantsFan : 6/3/2024 7:50 pm
Jones wins CPOY, Burns wins DPOY, & Nabers wins OROY. The Giants make the postseason as a WC team.

'Wild card berth for the New York Giants. That's their best case scenario. And that's pie in the sky, is it not?

Best case scenarios for the Cowboys & Eagles is winning the Super Bowl. For WFT, it is making the divisional round.

Making the playoffs should be the goal

And in doing so we are making progress which is the ultimate goal.

We aren’t SB contenders but you have to show competence before getting there. Making the playoffs will be a great start.
Forgetting about Jones’s

Subpar to mediocre play for a moment, how in the world can there be anyone left out there who thinks this guy can actually stay healthy enough to field a full season?

2 neck injuries in 3 seasons. I don’t see what there is left to hope for with this guy, other than that he’s able to get out of football before it’s too late for his long term health.

Eisen also had nyg taking JJM  
djm : 6/3/2024 9:14 pm : link
And nyg not only didn’t trade up they passed on JJM at six. And eisen made it seem like he knew this was going to happen.

I’ll put my trust in what actually transpires this coming season.

If all 3 of those things happen  
Breeze_94 : 6/3/2024 10:09 pm : link
Jones CPOY, Nabers OROY, Burns DPOY…they’d do much better than a wild card IMO.

The 2 or possibly even 3 best players on the team aren’t even mentioned in that scenario…

Also expecting bigger contributions from young ascending players like Banks, Thibs, Robinson, JMS, Pinnock, McFadden, Hyatt, Flott and even Neal

And?

Eisen does wear his fandom on his sleeves but, he’s hardly a homer. He shows zero bias when talking about the Giants.

I agree with Breeze  
Jersey Heel : 6/3/2024 10:29 pm : link
If Giants win all 3 of those awards, the team would have to have been pretty damn good. Certainly not saying this is what’s going to happen, but if it did, a lot would have gone right for us.
I know the Cowboys are always overrated  
BillT : 6/4/2024 7:00 am : link
But did Eisen (or anyone else) look at their offseason. They lost a half dozen starters. They will have 2/3 new starters on their OL. They are back to starting Zeke at RB. I’m not sure I’d trade our WR for theirs. Key defensive players coming off injuries. But they have SB potential. Sure, they’re the Cowboys.
At this point in the year  
mfjmfj : 6/4/2024 7:03 am : link
I am hoping for the Super Bowl. Will continue to think that way until the 1st game is played and maybe longer.

Last season it lasted about one half.
I think Dex is more likely to win DPOY than Burns

I just hope the Cowboys  
barens : 6/4/2024 8:17 am : link
rookie 1st round pick OT, has a Evan Neal type of rookie year. The Cowboys rarely seem to miss on OT prospects in the past decade or 2.
I think that has to be the goal,  
Section331 : 6/4/2024 8:41 am : link
and it’s not entirely crazy. It will depend on the defense playing as well as it did in ‘22, and Jones being similarly efficient. Given his injuries, i don’t see him reproducing 2022’s rushing numbers, so he is going to have to produce more in the passing game. With Nabers, and if Wan’Dale can stay earthy, and Hyatt takes a step forward, there are no excuses.

I mean, we could HOPE that he stays healthy all season, no? Isn't that a prime example of something one would hope for?

Sure. I mean, he HAS stayed healthy for 20% of his NFL seasons. Why would anyone doubt his ability to do so?!
A repeat of 2022 certainly seems possible

Jones plays as a competent game manager, Giants win a lot of close games and finish 9-8/10-7 and get a lucky matchup in the wild card round, win that game, and then get demolished in the divisional round by an actual contender.

Which is why, to Breeze's point, if Jones is somehow CPOY, Nabers is OROY, and Burns is DPOY, this team would go a lot further than the wildcard round.

Not likely.

I'm not sure DJ can do much on reputation alone.

I will when you start. All you do is post remarks cutting other posters down. Lots of added value there. Why don't you try adding to a conversation for once.

Excuse me?

I can't help your ability to read (or lack thereof), but we are not remotely the same when it comes to actual football discussion.
