What about starting 0-2 with both being home games?

2003 Eagles did it.

I feel good next week.

Arizona has probably the worst run D, and cant cover a TE.  They also have a terrible OL (but so did the Bucs)

 

Rhe week after, we are going to get smashed by the Texans.

 

Jaguars, maybe.  But think we lose and that the game the OL gets Cam killed.

Didn't 2013 Panthers start 0-2, end 12-4, and make it to the playoffs as division champs? 0-2 is not insurmountable. People need to relax.

They did.  That was the infamous game where Richardson stood on the field in warmups staring down Ron letting him know his azz was about to be fired.

[Panthers are good]

Rivera will have this on a shirt the next presser he holds.

We can hang with everybody. It's important to note that we can't beat anybody.

I look for, realistically, a better offensive performance and a worse defensive performance. It'll be another loss by less than 10 points. The defense has given the offense chances to be 2-0, but the defense won't have 16 good games. That's not something anyone can expect. Right now we're stating at 0-6 or so before we pull off an upset win. I don't think we'll get blown out much. There just isn't enough here to finish a game. It's a 2-4 win season and a press of the reset button in January.

Remember 1998? it's 1998 again, only our QB isn't an alcoholic quitter and our best defensive player won't choke a coach.

That the % of teams that have started 0-2 and made the playoffs since 2013

 

 

From 1993-2013 only 12 % of 0-2 teams made the playoffs 

 

 

 

 

Another grueling #.  We have already lost a quarter of our home games this season

I wonder how many of those lost those 2 games at home. 

We needed to be 6-2 in the first half.  I am not a math scholar, but that suggests that we need to fix things right now. 

Thank God we have Ron Rivera and 10 days.

Bingo. '07 & '11 Giants looked like poo & still won SB. Last year we went 6-2 & went downhill from there, so ya never know.

I try not to care too much about the first few games of the season. Sucks to lose but it happens. Today we mourn, tomorrow we move on.

07 Giants yes

11 Giants started 1-1 then 3-1

Waiting for Ron to pull the shirt out... I know he has one.

Very true. My point is right now, we suck. However, there's still chance we can still make playoffs & even win. Teams often start off like pansies but later find their manhood & win.

 

'15 Texans start off 2-5, finish with 9-7 & make playoffs

'18 Texans start off 0-3, finish off 11-5 & make playoffs

'18 Eagles start off 4-6, finish off 9-7 & make playoffs

'11 Giants did start off 3-1, later result 6-6 by week 13 but finish winning the SB with a 9-7 record. So right now it's anyone's game.
