5 Points to consider

[Star Platinum]

So firstly I do not condone the way the team is playing however here are 5 things to consider to give context

1 The elephant in the room, missing three key pieces and two veteran players our game plan has been vastly altered these past games, a tough ask for many teams but especially a young and building one

 

2 while Sams play at times is indefensible the simple fact is that our interior line makes us an easy target, given that it was also the problem with his last line in NY shows a glaring weakness of his that may just be his personal kryptonite, and that is stunts, games and interior rush in general, unsurprising given his athleticism not being necessarily elite, the result is regression until it’s fixed

 

3 While the giants are a bad team, I do not think the eagles or the Vikings were as bad as we thought, and while upsetting, it should be comforting that the bucs also struggled with one of those teams, and the other will likely win today.

 

4 While we did perform ahead of schedule early, I doubt the panthers brass were taken completely unaware that this may not quite be our year just yet , but despite that they have been aggressive and proactive, which is a refreshing change from the old regime, besides we still don’t know who this team is just yet.

5 given our current record, it may be much easier to take another cornerstone talent at any position including QB, in the coming draft ether through trade or standing pat, thus speeding along the rebuild.

All that said, there is still cause to be cautiously optimistic for the future of the team, and while a loss or close win against a bad team may sting, we are likely ok. Thanks for reading everyone

Bull. Giants are down a bunch of starters too. This is the ghost of bad teams past, bringing unpleasant flashbacks to the Clausen days. This is unwatchable garbage.

I realize that you feel that way and that the giants are indeed bad, but again look at the other teams we have played, we have a few very exploitable weaknesses that just aren’t quick fixes, it’s gonna take some time for sure but it’s not as bad as it seems.
