Any path for the Giants to surprise probably includes a breakout season from rookie receiver Malik Nabers.

"If Nabers or (Marvin) Harrison were Rookie of the Year, that means they had a bigger year than the quarterbacks — a historic year that would uplift their teams," one exec said.

The Giants appear optimistic, having unretired Hall of Famer Ray Flaherty's No. 1 jersey so the rookie can wear that number.

"Their best chance with Daniel Jones is to do what they did a couple years ago: Go heavy play-action, simple boots with simple reads, and scheme those guys to be open," an exec who considers Jones to be a low Tier 3 quarterback said. "There is definitely a ceiling there. Unless they know something we all don't, they are kind of existing."

SMART, TOUGH, DEPENDABLE

Ouch.

The NFC is the weaker conference, to boot.

Hopefully the Giants will prove people wrong. Getting to 2-0 would be a big step in that direction.
