Who cares?
Daniel Jones has 5 game winning drives in the 4th quarter this season and the team is 6-1. This isn't a Super Bowl team but you have to start somewhere.
The NFL needs to find some better way to enforce defensive personal fouls on scoring plays than on the kickoff that already goes out of the end zone 60% of the time.
Not sure what that has to do with your incorrect statement about Herbert but you are correct, I am not a dog.
Are the Titans and the Ravens bad teams? If so, are there really any good teams outside of the BIlls and the Eagles?
No, but Carolina, Chicago, Green Bay and Jacksonville are, and those were all one score games (Chicago was 20-12, I guess that's a one score game). The Giants have won 6 games while out scoring their opponents by a total of 20 points.
Don't get me wrong, I'm a Giants fan and I'm loving this franchise actually have a spell of success after years of bitter failure. But it's still more than a bit smoke and mirrors.
this 6’10 comment was obvious hyperbole.This has been a weird interaction since then.
I think it's the defenses, more than the QBs.
They are playing players who are much much faster and not lumbering refrigerators and that means there is just less space for the WRs. And then the two high safety is keeping everything in front of the offense, so you need to dink and dunk to be successful. So one mistake ends a drive. And it's easy to make mistakes.
I think when the quality of play is down across the league, coaching becomes a bigger factor. And the Giants are exceedingly well-coached. Neither you nor they have to apologize for that.
Texans running all over LA but forced to kick after passing on both 2nd and 3rd and 2. Either way, things aren’t looking great for McDaniels second and final ride on the HC carousel.
Absolutely. Denver picked Latavius Murray off the street on Tuesday and he took 15 carries on Thursday.
That’s what I didn’t really get. Jimmy can’t just say, outside zone right to CMC after the play call?
Like he doesn’t need to know all the verbiage and every route in the book if you just tell him what to do in the huddle.
Giants are capitalizing on all the dumb football and inopportune turnovers/penalties/missed kicks/poor coaching/etc that have been plaguing themselves for years.
Pats fan here but married into a Giants fam, and we just inherited two of my FIL’s season tix (by choice, not death). Definitely much happier tailgates this year than seasons past.
If the chiefs are gonna to get ticky tac calls in the secondary, they’re going to be unstoppable.
The 49ers have been flagged for offside in 3 of the last 10 or so snaps. Handing yardage to KC.
QB rating coming into this week was 88.8 league-wide after finishing 90.8 in 2021 and 93.6 in 2020. This would be the lowest since 2017 if it holds, and I'd expect it to drop a bit as the weather worsens.
Have you seen the schedule? Even if the get swept by Philly they have a decent shot at 13-14 wins.
