I know this is a passion for all of us, or we wouldn’t be here. But why is anyone so upset about this? 
 

Was it because you wanted/expected us to be able to beat up on the Giants? If so… what would ever give you the idea a dominating effort against them was EVER in the cards?

 

I get it. This team isn’t very good. And it’s frustrating. But you surely knew that, right? It’s just not worth being so upset about.

We match up well against the eagles. Not so much against the giants - but on a third string qb and oline of 5th stringers they should be competitive

I don't know what everyone is mad about.  We should be used to random, Italian QB's rising from obscurity to lead our opponents.  After years of Tony Romo, this shouldn't be a surprise.

Romo was a really good QB though.

You wanna defend Jack Del Rio, you’ll need more than that

I am not defending JDR's time here. He sucks ass. But his gameplan today was solid. And was good enough to win easily. He got no help at all from the offense today.

[mcdonaldrw]

Makes it hard to believe that just a few days ago folks were saying we would win this one easily

We were awesome in 2012....before bad coaching decisions ended someone's career prematurely 

We were 10-6 in 2012. Good, but hardly “awesome.”

 

Sean McVay( SB winning coach) Kyle Shannahan(HC of a perennial contender in San Francisco) and Mike McDaniels( HC and architect of an explosive Dolphins team).

All individuals were members of the coaching staff following that 2012 season. And netted…. Nothing.

 

Incredible

LEFT HAND UP is appropriate because it’s the same hand I wipe my ass with

I legitimately hope they drop 60 on us.

He has allowed this to continue…should have fired Rivera when he bought the team, but absolutely should have fired him weeks ago, after constant mismanagement. As an owner what else do you need to see? 

I agree Rivera  needs to go.  But the sale of the team was done so late in the year I don’t think Josh had any choice but to retain him. 
 

that said- I’m really happy about this game.  Gives me hope Rivera will be shown the door sooner rather than later.

Oh, and because it can’t be said enough, I ****ing hate hate hate the all black unis.

Well, all the media idiots keep saying “run the ball run the ball run the ball.”  
 

He did today.  So far, 27 run, 28 pass. 

I find that offensive and deplorable.  

The throw the ball like mad drill didn’t work against NY last time so Bieiniemy is mixing it up today. Both game plans sucked. Martindale has had Bieniemy for breakfast, lunch and dinner

It was just an undrafted Italian joke, nothing more.  😀

I’m gonna fill up on smoked turkey and stuffing. Hopefully  napping when the game is on 

[Isifhan]

How is it that without an interfering owner and nothing to worry about except coaching football, has this head coach been worse than ever. This is shockingly bad and I can not wait for the house cleaning that is coming. 

[Conn]

We overdraft duds specifically to try and get turnover and defensive TD’s, meanwhile the Cowboys have a random 5th round DB who isn’t Diggs score 4 pick sixes this year 

[RVAskins]

I guess mom will allow DeVito control the TV remote tonight.

It ain’t tanking when you suck it’s just called losing

Except in the playoffs and holding snaps 🤣

[Blanka]

We know what happens on thanksgiving too now after a pathetic showing vs a awful Giants team

 

 

The offense will look like the greatest show on turf vs a way better Dallas team only to lose on a go ahead Dak rushing TD in the waning moments.

I am just happy the Rivera crew will be gone and am looking forward to a fresh offseason. This is beyond embarrassing.

Nah. On paper? Sure. I agree. But there is such a thing as an aura in regards to a team. The Giants have an aura right now against us. Until we dissipate that aura, you can’t EVER look at the Giants as a “should win” game. 
 

People scoff at the aura thing. And it literally cannot be scientifically proven that I know of. However, I’ve experienced it. And it’s hard to get rid of it. 
 

The Giants just give us fits. Much like we give the Eagles fits.

This is what I silently hoped would happen minus Howell having a poor game.  We actually have a decent shot at a top 5 pick if we ride this out and I'm for keeping the staff in place to ensure that happens.

🤣 ummm, we're riding this out unfortunately.
