This is kinda apparent to me…it’s been interesting to hear the talking heads avoid the topic.

Don’t think they are avoiding it. They don’t play their guys in preseason. Plus Kelce was hurt and they lost Hardman and Schuster. Kelce and Schuster were the two main targets last year. Throw in the fact that Toney has dropped 47 balls. If it continues they will certainly talk about it. Losing EB certainly doesn’t help but they have been down some weapons from last year.

True, but then the Giants players quit.

That's not the worst part. The worst part is that the Giants coaches quit on the players before the game even started. That was a pathetic excuse for a game plan, if they had a game plan. Apparently, the coaches decided before the game that they wouldn't be able to run or throw deep against the 49ers so they came up with the least creative and dinkiest short passing plan they could. When the 49ers doubled Waller, it was over.

No Giants coach or player gets a pardon for this uninspired performance.

LOL.............

Tranny Dymes threw 15 touchdowns last season in 16 games

That’s it


Ran for 7 too. Without Barkley he is not able to run as effectively though. They are in trouble if his “high” ankle sprain lingers.

True, but they scored fewer points with Kelce in week 2 than they scored without him in week one. Their WR situation admittedly isn't as good as last year, although Hardman and Smith-Schuster aren't exactly world-beaters (Hardman has 1 catch for 6 yards for the Jets and Smith-Schuster has 9 catches for 61 yards in two games for the Pats). Those guys had good numbers last year because of Mahomes, I would argue.

Point being that EB's departure does seem to be having an effect.

I hate the Giants more than anyone here because I live in Giants country. But I have to disagree with this. SF is a juggernaut. Beat down two good teams on the road. This was a primetime home opener. Giants were overmatched on a short week, and without their best offensive player. Id take their HC and DC in a heartbeat.

Again I hate the Giants. I do not think Jones is as good as their fans do. But that was a tough tough situation playing across the country, against arguably the best team in football, on a short week. Not sure there is a gameplan for that.

Tak about losing your edge! Fuck the Giants!! They just aren't very good. Their offense is atrocious to watch.

It might be a tad early to consider them a juggernaut. They are 3-0, can't take that away from them. But like you said earlier, the Giants game was closer than the score. Also, the Rams win was a one-score game, and the Steelers just aren't a good team.

They will definitely be in the mix all year, but they are beatable.

Yeah the Rams played them well. I think they will be much better than last year. They dominated Seattle in Seattle. The Rams are that dark horse team in the NFC that nobody is talking about.
