Good story!
- Anyone else getting the vibe we're ready to beat some team (NYG?) real bad? Ok, maybe 2 by scores at least?
The 1-4-1 Giants over the last six games? Debatable at best.
Since the opener we've beaten one team by > 8 points. ONE.
Although, the Giants are coming off a Sunday night road game and have to travel to Minny while we last played on Saturday. That is a HUGE advantage for the Vikings I have already mentioned.
Conversely. coming off a historical comeback, why even mention that? Like when we 'beat' the Bills in an all-time game, we were hung out to dry 40-3 seven days later. Oh wait, it's the Giants not the Cowboys.
Your postings indicate you are a frontrunner. In fact, your posts have gone up exponentially as the season has gone on. Bandwagon is one adjective, but you refute things and stand behind the 11-3 record?
I don't think I stand by the 11-3 record as much as you think. "Why are we done in the first round?" Because it's the playoffs and these avg teams are now going to beat us? Don't mistake me for thinking we're moving on 'cause we're 11-3. I'm as pessimistic as anyone on the inside. I'm just not letting the if we don't improve we're "done!" remarks slide. Why? We've got to 11 wins this way, why all of a sudden are the Commanders or the Seahawks or the Lions going to take us out? BS!
Bandwagon!? Come on! Yes, I refute things, just like you do. I get a little irked at the, "It's the playoffs, we're going to get it now!"
Exponentially is correct. I'm on a pension and haven't haven't been driving part-time in over a month - I'm bored! But I'll cut back on posting if you think I should ;)
I didn't say we were done in the first round, what an incredible leap! I'll excuse the rest of the post, not my circus, not my monkeys. To wit, the premise was about whether we can beat the lately hapless Giants by 2 scores at least. Which I tried to answer complete with data, but to which you went off the rails on... certainly nothing about the Giants.
Cue the low rating post. Pathetic.
And I wasn't referring to anything you said, it was actually Jeff and Ron's posts that I was talking about - and let me say there was no ill will intended. Sorry, I can't remember actually what you said and to be clear I stopped reading this one after, " I'll excuse the rest of the post ...."
Funny how that stuff works sometimes, huh?
