I saw two old high school buddies on Saturday, one based out near Rochester, and the, local, whom I haven’t seen in a while.

My buddy from Rochester was going to the Giants game with his Dad on Sunday. To my friend and his Pop, whom I love dearly, from Giant fans everywhere, I’m sorry.

Sorry you had to witness this pathetic, sad sack of a team. I’m hesitant to even call it a team, currently as constructed, it’s Daniel Jones, trying wayyyyy too hard and 21 other misfits.

The score was 38–11 but it felt like 238-11, with the Rams basically playing a intra-squad scrimmage after the first quarter. My thoughts on Sean McVay going for it on 4th down up three scores aside, the whole thing was like watching The Titanic hit the iceberg on a continuous slow motion loop.

The game started out badly, Nate Solder got smoked on the Giants first series, Daniel Jones fumbled, but it was recovered by the Giants, but it was an omen. The Giants would actually put a drive together and did what they do, get 3 instead of 7.

From there, it was awful. Jones fumbled and three interceptions. Promising Rookie Kadarius Toney left early with the same injury he’s been dealing with, and Andrew Thomas left with another injury, this time to his ankle.

Being a Giant fan these last 10 years minus the 2011 Super Bowl and a brief flicker of light in 2016 with a Wild Card game, being a Giant fan has been miserable.

Good teams, hell even decent teams, yeah they get beat, but they show up and give their all. Guys like Adoree Jackson and sadly, Logan Ryan, have started quitting. Ugh.

When Joe Judge was first hired, it was panned by critics, but loved by the fans. You saw Judge fired up at training camp, and guys were buying in. Fans, we would run thru a wall for our Coach.

That seems like so long ago. Judge looks tired, lost, at trying to explain away his JV team’s lack of scoring or the God Dammed Defense’s inability to make a fucking play. Can we have one 3rd Down where if the Defensive Line losing contain, can we have a linebacker covering the receiver in the flat, so they only get 5 instead of 27 yards on a 3rd and 6? Christ.

Reading reports this past week, coaches were ‘angry’. That anger hasn’t translated into any results on the field, if anything it’s gasoline to and made this one containable blaze into a full blown wildfire.

This brings me to Mr Mara. Your undying loyalty, trust and your ego have caused this. You have a GM and Coaches that are good to go to have a beer with, but they aren’t fitting with today’s NFL. 3 yards and a cloud of dust, and rah rah specials will only go so far.

Mr. Mara, do something, NOW! Not at the end of the year after they win 3 straight and you see ‘potential’.

Embarassing and sad are words that describe my favorite team right now. The words and the lipservice, the empty promises, the bullshit Old School NFL approach is not working.

Get with the times and change or stay a stagnant laughingstock. As one of my favorite lyrics says ‘when life is hard, you’ve got to change.’

Unfortunately, Mara won’t, Steve Tisch won’t Dave Gettleman won’t and Jason Garrett won’t. Loyalty rules the day over winning and an empty stadium, that’s a hell of standard to be underachieving at, but the Giants somehow are.

Back soon.
