Unlike the Giants, we showed up this week for another episode. We’re running out of ways to call the team pathetic and embarrassing, but they keep hitting a new rock bottom every game. Ben McAdoo is a dead man walking, so why not just do the inevitable and fire him in-season?

The Giants got a desperately-needed win in Denver, but the team isn’t fixed and it’s unlikely they’ll turn the season around. The running game looked good, but the receiving corps is depleted.

After falling to 0-4, the Giants have proven they are just not a good football team. With an unfavorable schedule, can they pull off a respectable season or will they end with a 3-13 record?

The Giants have fallen to 0-3 after a demoralizing loss on a last-second 61-yard field goal against the Eagles, and the season is quickly slipping away.
