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>

    • Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
