Giants 6th round LB Darius Muasau, from Hawaii, is wearing a winter hat in 63 degree weather in May. Jokes this is all the cold he can handle in Jersey 😂. Also says he's looking forward to his first White Christmas ❄️. But don't be fooled by his smile. Says "I love running and hitting" and he has an "alter ego" once he steps on the field

What fans are "constantly" seeking Aaron Robinson updates at this point?

I am not going to focus on all these training moments.  Gets way overhyped.

I'll pay attention to more finished products at the end of August.

Well said, and I couldn't agree more.

I would even take it a step further and argue that the whole of camp and preseason get overhyped too in terms of their meaningfulness and correlation to real games. Look at all the optimism we had on this board in late August/early Sep, and then look at the historically terrible week one performance. That was not the only time we've seen this disconnect either. Not by a longshot, sadly.

Do you think key injuries to Thomas (arguably the offense's best player), Waller, and Jones might have impacted what was expected versus what was produced?

How did any of those impact the week one game, which is what I was referencing?

Thomas was injured very early in the game and Waller had been injured prior to the game and was not playing like he had in camp.
