Quote from: MightyGiants on Today at 11:33:27 AMIs he really?  It seems like Jimmy Johnson (along with the historical stupidity of the Vikings) spurred the early success.  After Jerrah's ego spurred him to fire Jimmy Johnson, they have been a team that collects plenty of talent (and develops and manages them well), but year and year, crashes and burns when the playoffs come around.  Plus, see my post on how I view Jerrah, you don't have those sorts of traits with any of the Mara family.

You can't crash and burn in the playoffs unless you make the playoffs.

I predict that there will be somewhere between 0 and 17 regular season wins.   :D


Seriously, there are far to many variables and unknowns for me to make any sort of prediction that I would have any sort of confidence in.

Quote from: Philosophers on May 16, 2024, 09:31:37 PMIt's just amazing how woefully deficient the 2024 Gmen are to say the 2006 team.  Just go position by position.

Want to get really deptessed?  Look at the 2nd stringers

Quote from: miss86 on May 16, 2024, 08:35:59 PMI think Atlanta is going to be tuff this year. I think they are going to be a good team with QB Cousins and Giants playing in their stadium. The good part is, it will be much warmer there than the NE.

The Falcons would have been tougher had they not used their first-round pick on Penix.  It's not like the team can play two QBs at once.

Quote from: AZGiantFan on Today at 10:12:31 AMI don't hate him.  I envy the fact that he is a better owner than the Giants'.

Quote from: Philosophers on Today at 10:26:59 AMIf DJ falters, do you think the Giants see Lock as his heir replacement so a rookie QB was never really an option?

If DJ falters, I think Lock gets a shot.  I don't know if I would say the odds are favorable that Lock will prove to be a franchise QB.  That said, I don't think it's out of the realm of possibilities that Lock surprises in a good way.  Lock seemed to come into the league not fully appreciating what it took to be an NFL QB.  Even Lock's father confirmed that.  Lock does seem to appreciate now what it takes.  Combine Lock's natural talent (which is NFL caliber) with a QB whisperer like Daboll, and you never know.
