The Giants proved they are a long way off from competing against the league's better teams
I was worried I would think the Giants might improve defensively and turn this season into something other than experience for Daniel Jones and a rebuilding year. The loss to the Vikings returned me to reality.
The Giants have won back-to-back games to reel their fans back in
Last week was certainly forgettable, but thankfully, there’s another week ahead to get back to winning, and 13 more weeks to erase this under-.500 record.
The Giants are undefeated in the Daniel Jones era
The Giants have done it. They have reeled me back in. They have reeled me back into having a reason to watch each week, and that’s not something I thought was possible two weeks ago.
The Giants are setting their fans up for more heartbreak and disappointment
A win in Week 4 and the Giants will have their fans believing in the team and thinking they could possibly go to the playoffs, only to be let down once again later in the season.
The Giants might really have their next franchise quarterback
I want this to be the beginning of the Giants’ return to being competitive, but for that to happen, the defense is going to have to greatly improve, no matter how well Daniel Jones plays.
The season has been filled with quarterback injuries, which has made an already hard job of picking games increasingly more difficult. That trends continues in Week 3.
The Giants' season is effectively over and so is Eli Manning's starting career
After another disappointing loss, the Giants’ season is now over, and there’s no reason not to play Daniel Jones instead of Eli Manning.
The second week of the season has always been the hardest to pick
Week 2 has always been the hardest week of the season for me to pick, and I’m sure it will be again this year.
The 2019 season looks to be a continuation of the last two seasons
The Giants are now 0-1. One loss closer to another season ending before September does. One loss closer to another losing season. One loss closer to the end of the Eli Manning era.
