God I miss this type of music

Just need Howell to look good and the team to lose. 

I don’t want a repeat of the Giants game in terms of how they play even if the outcome is the same. I absolutely hope we lose but at least want Sam to put up a good showing.

This thread really should be dead after today.

Fandom is really interesting - we have a dumpster fire organization since 1991 and only 2 wins better than the Giants and people not only expect to beat this team but somehow finish with 8 wins or whatever. Makes me feel like I am watching a different team.

Not sure it matters, outside of this game we're mot winning anymore this year.

It hurts the Giants draft position, which is also good.

Needed a ****ing TD here dammit

Trust me, you do not want to win this game. We need higher draft picks even if it just means trading it away since it holds more value

Again, those of you who said this is an easy game are doing this to yourselves. We always struggle with the Giants.

…and we are a bad team. 

I'm not a huge fan of BSJ

Keep losing please

What lead?

Any lead on any game with any amount of time left. Just can’t trust this defense to hold. For today - yep it was a tie not a lead.

Crazy how no lead is safe for this team even if there is 1 second left on the clock, I expect to lose.

I love me some Jamison Crowder, but at the same time, I'm kind of disappointed that he's shining for us at WR where others aren't. What happened to the rest of our depth? Was Crowder always this good and teams just mismanaged him, or are our WRs playing noticeably bad enough that they're letting a 30 year old player the entire state of New York gave up on steal their thunder?

Crowder is a pretty good WR who is just older, been injured and played for the Jets, so I think that played a part in his career.

Terry, Jahan and Samuels are good. Neither are that elite level talent that can break a game open. After that, it’s open. I’m not necessarily a fan of Dyami, so Crowder automatically is a step above.

Not sure I’m rooting for Giants to lose. I don’t want them near a top draft pick to be able to pick up a legit QB.

I like the coaching he has around him. Stroud and Howell could be the future of the league.

Agreed. I should add, that wasn’t a knock on Howell because Howell has been pretty solid for us.

Stroud is absurd.

Not sure what his career trajectory will be in the long run, but he is a rookie, on a bad team with no elite weapons and he still performs. Sometimes, excuses are just that, excuses.

I wish some team would trade for Ron and JDR.

“but I know the smart thing is to lose games but play well while you lose and today we did that.”

 

I understand that sentiment, but that’s an unlikely scenario. If you lose a game, It’s likely you didn’t play well, or “show” well. 

But I do agree with the overall principle- you have to resort to the extremes of the bell curve.  

 You have to fail pretty badly to stock and accumulate generational talent( at least it gives you a higher likelihood of doing so). 
 

However, that’s difficult to accept, then this sport is played once a week, and fans live and die on every singular play. 
 

I imagine if you asked most fans, today, on this message board, whether they would have preferred to win, or lose( because it might put us in a position to strengthen an build out future)- most people would say they’d prefer the win. Because of the emotional build-up of a weekly played sport. 
 

I probably would have preferred a win too, even though I know it might affect this franchise's future. We‘re human. 

Yep, and even with that, I know a high pick alone doesn’t mean success, but it could bet your more picks and more “opportunities” to land elite talent.

That’s perhaps the sensible reaction, removing emotion.

 

However, I’m quite certain you would have been thrilled- like all of us- with a Commander victory today over the Eagles. That’s why we do this, once a week.

Emotional high after a win is true, but I know the smart thing is to lose games but play well while you lose and today we did that.

I want that top pick because it either means you get the top QB or you trade it for 3 #1s and now you have 2 first round picks for the next three years.

Not a definitive plan for success but these wins are meaningless, the team isn’t good.

Respectable loss. Better than a win that will just put you at mediocrity 

Not challenging on the dropped pass and the awful pass call on 4&1. Coaching, we always get the best of them.

Haven’t been following fully but how do you not challenge that.

Incredible kick
