Will the Giants be the "get right" game for the Panthers?
« on: Today at 10:44:37 AM »
 
the Panthers started out on fire 3-0.  They lost their key MLB and their star RB and crashed to an 0-3 stretch since (who knew injuries could impact a team's performance?).    Will the Panthers use the injury-riddled and struggling Giants team to "get right" this Sunday?

While I would expect the Giants to lose this game (how can anyone sanely expect anything else right now), I am guessing they'll play a lot better (or less poorly) than they did last week, even adjusting for the strength of the opponent. Even though Judge seems totally ineffective, these players are professionals, and anytime you get that humiliated and the whole country sees multiple people quitting the way they did, that tends to not be repeated a week later. Also, this week they will have had proper time to prepare for this game knowing that all these guys will be out, which they didn't have last week.

Last week I thought the Giants had no chance. This week I would say they have A chance, even though my base case would be a loss. Carolina is ok but not great, especially without CMC. This is a completely different opponent this week than last week, and the Giants themselves should play better than last week.

I'll actually be very surprised if this game is another massacre. This feels more like a 24-17 (Carolina win) type game to me. So is that a "get right" game for Carolina? It would be a win, which ultimately is all that matters.

This week, I'm taking the Giants in this bet. I think that they will answer the call. 24-20 Giants. Considering that the Chiefs, Raiders, and Bucs are coming after that, this is the one that we will get.

so sick of this ****ing team overall

Too many injuries to overcome on offense I think.
Still looked a bit lost on defense. Graham said he simplified the D but still a lot of blown coverages.

Who knows though...this team does tend to surprise.

I hope Jones turnovers was a one game bump in the road and not a sign of forcing things and opening the flood gates. They might have a chance vs Carolina.

If we lose this we go 1-9 before a real chance at victory imo. My prediction this year is 5-12. I originally had us going 9-8 possibly 10-6. Boy did I drink the Giant Blue cool aid.

Could you imagine Darnold coming into MetLife Stadium and lighting us up while Barkley is largely ineffective or potentially missing yet another game due to injury?

This Giant D is gonna make Darnold look like an All Pro QB, 3 passing TDs + 1 rushing TD for him in this game. Car 28-NY 17

Not having CMC, Shaq and Horn really puts us the bottom of the league. But a win would get us above 500 for now. if we get key players back we could still get to 8 or 9 wins. I 'll take that this year, but we better get a new long snapper in the draft...

 

Hey kidding...< makes the O face>

      Report: Panthers great Luke Kuechly being eyed for big TV job

      So the last guy who had the job got hired by his former team directly into a role he has no direct experience in?

      Hard to pass up millions for a couple of days work per week for a coaching gig in the NFL that is 60-80 hours each week during the season and a more relaxed 50 hours a week during the off season. Yeah, I'd love to see him as our DC but hard to see him giving up the cushy job there if he gets it. And he's going to be a great commentator for the network.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      Really, I think that is where negotiations come in. If you've got a QB getting you to 10 wins but statistically he's not a great performer, then you say look you can take $22 million or you can try it on the market. Because let's face it, out there, any leadership skills that we're seeing aren't going to be on the table, it's just going to be performance and that lands him in the QB2 market, which is much, much less lucrative (although any of us would love that money).  No one is saying that Bryce will be a $50 million QB, barring something short of a miraculous jump. I'm just saying that if we are winning somehow with him at the helm, then it would be fuging stupid to dive back into the rookie pool all over again. Let's say we do hit the 10 win mark, heck, let's call it 11 and a second round in the playoffs. I think we can all say that would be a really uplifting result and one that should be doable if we have good play. What do we do then? Here's what I would offer if I were Morgan and Tepper. $25 million a year for 3 years, each year with up to $10 million in incentives for touchdowns, wins, playoff depth, being under 10 interceptions, completing a full season, passing yardage milestones, taking less than 15 sacks. Look, Bryce isn't a Ferrari, he isn't a Corvette, or a mid-level BMW. He's probably a new Toyota Sienna that will definitely get you somewhere and bring the whole team along with it, no fuss but not a lot of pizazz.  And really, it's about the destination, not about what drove you there.
