new york giants

Yesterday's game for the New York Giants appeared to be as bad as it gets for a Big Blue fan. After what was a boring start of the game, I am not sure if I have ever seen a team play a worse 2nd Quarter, as the Giants did yesterday. The Los Angelas Rams scored 4 touchdowns in the second time-frame. One touchdown came off of a Daniel Jones fumble after being sacked. Another followed one of his interceptions, deep in New York territory. It was ugly.

Call me soft, call me over-protective, call me whatever you want. I don't believe Daniel Jones should play against the Los Angeles Rams this weekend.

As much of America wears pink in honor of October being Breast Cancer Awareness month, the New York Giants will be hosting a "Crucial Catch Game" this Sunday as they welcome the 4-1 Los Angelas Rams. Trust me, there will be a number of important catches to be made by Joe Judge's Big Blue but the focus of this catch will be a little different.

The bye weeks are coming! The bye weeks are coming! Here are ten players that you should be targeting on your waiver wire in your fantasy football league.

The Giants already knew they were punching above their weight in their game against the Cowboys, and their rookie wide receiver took that notion to heart.

Records are one thing but how could Buffalo being saving New York football? Well, new fans would be a start. New NFL fans are often attracted to winning teams. Some fans of perpetually losing franchises, like the New York Jets, switch their allegiances to teams that actually make the playoffs or win a Super Bowl every 3 or 4 decades or so. Ask Robert Kraft, the owner of the New England Patriots, how many of his current fanbase used to root for another NFL team prior to the Pats amazing Super Bowl run of 6 NFL championships?

The hill on which I was willing to die with the New York Giants is starting to get crowded. Daniel Jones is playing at an elite level, and the league is noticing.

Who is the Capital Region's most beloved sports team? I think we know but let's take a look anyhow. There are probably some major professional sports teams and leagues that we can toss immediately. The NHL is easy to toss. Besides the lack of general popularity, a direct result of Gary Bettman's reign as commissioner, the NHL fanbase in the Capital Region is too fractured.

Two quotes surfaced on earlier today, one from each New York offensive coordinator. Despite the similar job, the quotes themselves, were very different.

Is it probably against the rules? Yes. Was it the highlight of ESPN executives' days? Probably not. Was it hilarious, genuine, and a prime example of why the Manningcast is a refreshing sports media product? Absolutely.

Watching the New York Giants on Sunday afternoon was painful enough. Hearing today's news about the New York Giants' defense was, somehow, even worse.

There is another initiative to get New Yorkers vaccinated. This time officials are aiming at football fans. It's called "Vax and Win". Those who get vaccinated have a chance to win some cool NFL gear and tickets from their favorite New York teams. (I know there is only one true New York team that plays in New York-the Buffalo Bills, but they are lumping in the New York Jets and the New York Giants.)
