^ BTW Our opponents next yr.. Both South divisions.

Anyway's lets finish 8-8 and sweep the giants, I will always take that over a pick.

Re: Sweet the Giants thread
 

A lot of people had us at 8-8 coming into this year, have to believe without all the injuries we had a good shot at 10 or 11 wins.

So I’ll gladly take 8-8 at this point.

Re: Sweep the Giants thread
 

I think we lose so bad the NFL assigns 3 of our wins to the Giants, leaving us at 4-12!

Yeah I wont complain either

Re: Sweep the Giants thread
 

If Cousins chokes against the Giants this game that'll cause a shit storm. But I don't see us losing. Don't even think we can pull that off. Giants are absolutely atrocious.

we will win this game like last week, ugly but not a close game.

I'd say like 24-13

It’s weird that we don’t play the AFC East next year.

Who was it that said we’d only win 4 games this year?? He was only off by 4. So close.

Amazing how much of a dumpster fire the Giants have been this year. One of their worst seasons in franchise history.

It brought back memories of Zorn's second year. I hate the Eagles and Dallas, the Giants have always been more of a disdain then real hate. ALMOST felt sorry for them this year.

Re: Sweep the Giants thread
 

I hate being the guy that makes every discussion about draft picks .... but the giants arent in a bad spot imo. Sans the Eli Apple issue. They have a talented roster.

They get a top pick in a QB top heavy draft to replace Eli who would be 37 years old for the start of next season.

Id take the Giants roster and draft status over the skins roster next year, that wont have Cousins.

I wouldn't take their Roster....Terrible Oline, declining QB with no one behind him, zero Running backs, 1 WR, and extremely terrible linebacking core.

We have more talent on the roster.

I will never forgive or forget the Mara's campaigning Goodell to slam us for restructuring contracts with bonus payouts in the uncapped 2011 season. There was nothing in the CBA that made this maneuver illegal. The owners clearly colluded, and our FO went against their little plan to screw the players during the uncapped season.

They are going to finish 2-14, have we ever sunk that bad? I don't recall a losing record like that.

Shame on you for making me look up our record history!

2013 3-13
2009 and 2014 4-12

but this is why i hate that i looked it up - from 2006-2014, we were 1st one time, 3rd one time, and 4th SEVEN times including a stretch of 5 4th place finishes in a row.

Weirdly we haven't come in 2nd since 2005

Absolutely! The fact that people(not me but some here ) were saying they were possible Super bowl contenders. Chico is right(holy shit did I say that???) , the GM has ignored the O line which in return has killed your run game and that in turn killed you passing. Defensively he ignore the Lber's all together and payed way to much for average talent!
Ownership is just as bad. John Mara made a scapegoat out of Coughlin and made a average OC a head coach. A coach who showed no balls when your Offensive super start fucked up but came down with suspensions on your Defense for lesser infractions causing turmoil in the locker room. The deferrense with me is I won't blame Eli,is he Arron Rodgers or Bradey ,no, never said he was but I'll take him over much of the other shit that pass's for QB's today.

true

Re: Sweep the Giants thread
 

Tom Loverro sd on the radio that we are the only team to not have a 11-5 or better season in the last 23 years. That in part is why we look at 8-8 as being somewhat a success, because we compare ourselves to our past performance.

Im convinced that this team would be 11-5 without injuries, even with the tough SOS.

It is possible, we SHOULD HAVE BEAT N.O so that is already 9-7 right there and the rain game against dallas was a wash due to conditions.

It's times like these that make us turn to Cleveland and say "Hey we ain't them"

Since Cleveland got it's team again in 1999 they have finished last in their division 15 out of 19 seasons, they've never finished first, and finished 2nd 2 times.

I will never forgive how some Redskins fans were actually cheering and applauding NY winning two Superbowls because they were playing The Patriots (not on here but another board I sometime frequent). Who gives a crap if NE wins another one it's better them than a division rival.

I've had a couple RLF say if the Skins don't make playoffs (which is often) they root for G-Nats to go far because they're the closest team in the division that is like Was. And they deluded themselves into thinking it makes the overall division look good keeping the prize in it.:puke:

Screw that! If my beloved Redskins aren't winning the title I sure as heck don't want their enemies winning it. Especially NY who I dislike more than any other rival. Just for my disdain for them alone, I want them to sweep these scumbags!

Yeah I never understood why people hate the Pats that much? To root for NYG over them??? LOL Hell no. So if Dallas played them would they root for Dallas??

Ha, no, I meant the 23 years factoid. That's embarrassing.

Re: Sweep the Giants thread
 

The 23 years without 11 wins really hurts -- I knew it had been a long time, but i hadn't recalled it being that long ago.

Every season feels like woulda-coulda-shoulda. This season, if Doctson hadn't dropped the TD catch against the Chiefs, had we not blown leads with the Vikings and Saints, had we gutted out a win in the second Eagles game which was within reach.... So frustrating. This team could have won another 3-4 games, even with the injuries. Of course, we could also have lost some close ones too -- but good teams that are well coached, disciplined, and have depth from a good GM find ways to win more of those games than lose.

Hate the Pats all you want -- they're the best coached team in football. And they have enough talent in terms of scouts, etc. that they can find guys who aren't superstars and still win.

We need a real GM, but more importantly, we need Bruce Allen away from the team. No idea if Doug Williams has the goods, but it won't matter if Bruce continues to meddle and screw stuff up. I still cringe when I think of his stupid press release video referring to the effort to sign "Kurt" Cousins -- the dipshit.
