Let me say 1st that when I started my day it was ugly hearing "Panthers suck" and that I suck as well all day....I'm glad my dad finally told my mom to shut up anyway I survived the day and now I'm over the game from last night and then I remembered a game from a couple of years ago read below.

We destroyed the Giants 41-9 and look at them now. This is the NFL we will get our ass kicked sometimes, it happens...I didnt see the Giants fire the head coach, bench the QB and sell the team. I'm pissed at what happened but c'mon folks.

For a brief moment Sunday afternoon, it looked as if the Giants had the upper hand in the game against the Carolina Panthers and a promising shot at a playoff spot.

It came in the middle of the first quarter when quarterback Eli Manning found wide receiver Steve Smith in the end zone for what looked like a touchdown on a 26-yard passing play on the Giants’ first drive. But the play was nullified by a holding penalty against fullback Madison Hedgecock.

Three plays later, the drive was nullified when wide receiver Mario Manningham fumbled on the Carolina 14-yard line and it was recovered by the Panthers. And everything unraveled from there in the Giants’ final regular-season home game in their current Giants Stadium.

The Panthers took the ball and drove down field for a field goal and went on to a 41-9 victory that left the Giants on the brink of elimination.

my point of posting this means this is not the end of the world it wasn't for the Giants we will continue on and we will win again!!

since then the giants have added another lombardi trophy to their case and the panthers have managed to win 10 games out of 36 but yeah, you're right, everything is fine, carry on with business as usual, no need to change anything

no one is saying this.

they're not just freaking out and acting like its all over.

There's a point...and you missed it.

i got the point. you missed mine

I understand what you were trying to say. The point of the OP though, was what the Giants managed to do after such a humiliating loss. Something that you already listed in your response. That isn't to say that we are on the same track, or that the OP expects us to follow in those footsteps, but that one loss doesn't define a team. Sure you can look at what we've done leading up to this point, as 200 threads over the last 24 hours already have, or you can look forward, which was the point of the thread. That doesn't mean that we are expected to carry forward toward success without any changes, just that it's possible and that this loss doesn't mean that we are doomed to suck for years to come.

Yea during that time span, the Giants probably won 2 Super Bowls. That's probably why no coach were fired and fans werent whining .

HAHAHA it would be so fun if you actually watched the game and knew what you were talking about.

Coughlin was one of the most questioned/hot seat coaches the past couple of seasons, even after he won them a superbowl.

The NY fans are some of the harshest, most critical fans in sports.

      Just look at OTC. It takes like 30 seconds. Also, ESPN just covered this today. As Dolphins coach Mike McDaniel openly mulls a quarterback change late in Tua Tagovailoa's disappointing season, here's the math on where things stand with Tagovailoa and the Dolphins. He has $54 million in fully guaranteed compensation in 2026. That breaks down as a $39 million salary and a $15 million option bonus that needs to be exercised between the first and third days of the 2026 league year in March. Additionally, on the third day of the 2026 league year, $3 million of his $31 million 2027 salary becomes fully guaranteed. So if he's on Miami's roster as of 4 p.m. ET on March 13, the Dolphins will be on the hook for $57 million guaranteed.   If they were to release him prior to that date, they'd still have to pay him the $54 million in 2026 cash and would absorb $99.2 million in dead salary cap charges. (They could spread that out over two years if they designated him a post-June 1 release, but they'd still take $67.4 million in dead money charges on their 2026 cap and the remaining $31.8 million in 2027.) If they were to find a way to trade Tagovailoa before March 13, the acquiring team would become responsible for the $54 million in 2026 salary and bonuses, and the Dolphins' dead-money charge would drop to $45.2 million. If they traded him after March 13, presumably they'd be on the hook for the $15 million option bonus, while the new team would take the $39 million salary; the Dolphins' dead-money charge would be $60.2 million.   None of this is even close to ideal, obviously, as it would leave Miami in a terrible cap situation and also without a quarterback. The Broncos took $80 million in dead-money charges (spread over two years) when they released Russell Wilson in 2024, and they managed to make the playoffs last season and currently hold the 1-seed in the AFC playoff field for this season. So huge dead-money charges don't necessarily kill a team's chances. But one of the reasons it has worked for Denver is it found a first-round QB in Bo Nix who could play right away.   If the Dolphins bench Tagovailoa this week, it'd be for either Zach Wilson or rookie Quinn Ewers, either of whom could theoretically be a 2026 starting option if they show enough in these remaining three weeks. But moving on from Tagovailoa would probably require the Dolphins to be players in that Mac Jones/Kyler Murray/etc. second-chance QB market if they want to compete next year. Not a great spot for whoever their next general manager turns out to be. https://www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/id/47324378/nfl-week-16-buzz-news-updates-fantasy-intel-questions-predictions#trades
