Things We Learned About the Giants: Why They Should Be 2-1.
The New York Giants have had a challenging start to the season. With three games down, they sit at 1-2, but they could easily be 2-1. Let’s break down what happened in each game and why there’s hope moving forward.
Vikings’ Defense Proved to Be Legit.
The Minnesota Vikings were better than expected. Their defense has been one of the main reasons for their impressive 3-0 start. We didn’t expect them to dominate like they did. Sam Darnold, their quarterback, is showing why he could be in the running for Comeback Player of the Year. The Vikings’ win against the Giants was a wake-up call. They controlled both sides of the ball, and the Giants struggled to keep up.
Missed Opportunity Against Washington.
The second game was where the Giants had a chance to pull out a win. Daniel Jones played well, and the defense did its job. They bent but didn’t break, allowing only field goals, not touchdowns. But Washington managed to move down the field and secure enough points to win.
If the Giants had handled their roster management better, they might have pulled it off. Knowing Graham Gano was injured, a backup kicker should have been brought in earlier. This simple adjustment could have changed the game’s outcome.
A Solid Bounce Back Against the Browns.
In their third game, the Giants found some redemption. Daniel Jones had a solid performance, and rookie wide receiver Malik Nabers showed why he’s a rising star. The defense stepped up when it mattered, producing timely sacks and stops. This led to the Giants’ first win of the season against the Cleveland Browns.
Looking Ahead: Cowboys on Thursday Night.
NFL experts often say the first four games give you a real sense of a team’s potential. The Giants now face the Dallas Cowboys this Thursday. This game will be crucial in determining if they’ll sit at 2-2 or fall to 1-3 after four games. Either way, the Giants have shown promise, and there’s hope for improvement.
