BlueInCanada Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Dont know what good it would do, were in that middle ground if 7 wins. Might move up a few spots. I say try to win out just to fuck with playoff standings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueInCanada Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Also big if, but if we beat the Redskins next weekend we still have a very good shot at the wildcard spot. Which is fucking wild. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mastershake Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 The Giants will be lucky if they even get another win this year. Losing out is the most likely scenario regardless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Nah, even odds vs both WTF and the Vikings, Indianapolis is a should-win, and Philly will be resting starters. The goal should be 4-0. I know this team isn’t winning a championship, but changing the culture and learning how to win, hell even just getting more snaps for this young, developing team, is worth a whole lot more than a few draft slots.

This Shades of 1979-1981 for me Just play and get better by increments Thibs is Strahan and the Peanut Butter sandwich Wait until Thibs get the second and third move Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmenroc Posted December 11, 2022 Author Share Posted December 11, 2022 I ain't sayin to rest the starters...but from a fan standpoint, I think it's offseason/draft time. We couldn't beat Washington the first go...not a whole lot of confidence there. Minnesota and Indy are 50/50 games. And Philly could rest their starters after the 1st qtr and we still likely lose that one. We are definitely picking outside top 10, but there seems to be a big difference between 15 and 25 most drafts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Each team gets 7 picks default in the draft, most teams only see one or two go beyond four years with their team, regardless of draft position. If it isnt a top 10 pick then it's basically a crap shoot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boohyah Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 We've waited how many years to play meaningful games in December and we are writing threads about posting it in?. Cmon guys. Eagles and Dallas are so far ahead of everyone and will spank plenty of teams. We need to keep playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tempest Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 I think they should continue to play to win. They don't have to intentionally lose, they will do that as they continue to face better teams. Giants have come as far as they will go this season. Just hope they can avoid career ending injuries at this point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sephiroth Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Why would we hope to lose out when we have a realistic shot to make the playoffs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorBanksCarsonVanPelt Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 It could be 1981 again the first time in the playoffs since 1963 The won one playoff game that year against the Egals and would have probably beaten Joe Montana's 69'ers if not for a Gary Jeter (DE) roughing penalty when he punched Montana in a scrum Brad van Pelt OLB for the Giants (the vP in TBCvP) Lost his Lunch on that Play he was so mad at Jeter not Playing smart One of the few times that Jeter Lost it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boohyah Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Why would you ever want your team to lose?. It's just a bizarre idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boohyah Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Skins and Colts are games we have a very good chance to win. Eagles game could be against second stringers. Vikings are decent but they are not the Eagles. If we went 2-2 at worst we'd be 9-7-1. Everyone in Giantsland takes that record. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would be something if he can have a career like Brady, going from unheralded to a champion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have the "QB" you traded three firsts for, and has only thrown maybe 200 passes in his lifetime. You got pretty boy who took you to a SB appearance. Then you'll have Purdy who may very well win a playoff game as a rookie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you can find talent beyond the 1st round, but it may be tougher. The Giants haven't had much success outside of round 1 with QBs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look at the Eagles they got Jason Kelcee in 2011 in the sixth! Guy is one of the best centers to play the game and they got a HoFer in the sixth. Meanwhile we are lucky if our first round picks are even on the team after year three lol I really hope Schoen works out is all in saying because we have not had any luck finding talent anywhere in the draft.

Kid was a straight up gym rat type who knew everyone player's job....D or O when he was on the field. Apparently he didn't test well at Combine....but fuck...didn't anyone look at his college tape? Four straight bowls with him as QB...Iowa State just doesnt do that. C. Wagon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spot on. Plus its not like we are Draft King Master Champs that we will fucking stock up a heap of diamonds just because we got to pick 5 spots higher. No matter what, these kids need to know what it means to be in the playoffs - give them a scent of that and they will KNOW next season what to actually play for. Is there anyone on this squad that has even experienced a playoff game (minus Shepard who dropped that ball against GB and OBJ dropped another TD too.....fuck) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
