ORIGINAL: marty The Giants might be tailored made to upset the Vikings in game 1, should the Giants get ahead early, they will bring lots of heat. Daboll out coached KOC in the playoff game, it could happen again. This time, instead of Kirk Cousins bringing the Vikings back, it will be the Jittery Sam Darnold, in his first Vikings game, with no chemistry with the WRs, missing Hock, and this time the game is in NY. The only positive difference is Flores, though his unit will have a lot of inexperience, his defense isn't like the horrible sieve that was Donatell. I'm glad you recognized the real problem in that game. Donatell had a defense that left the entire middle of the field open all day long. Flores wont do that and Daniel Jones will be rusty to say the least. the Pressure Flores dials up is going to fluster Jones all day long. There won't be big open spaces in the middle of the field and there wont be time to find them if their were. And Cousins pulled a Cousins in that game and wilted at the wrong time. On a need to get 4th down play that determines the game he threw the safe pass short of the sticks which was predictably stopped. Cousins pulled a Cousins in crunch time. Really, it's kind of silly at best to compare this game to a playoff game from nearly two years ago. Each team is markedly different in players, and coaching staffs. Plus the Giants were awful last year. and their BEST offensive player from the past few years, Saquon Barkley, is now an Eagle. Giants only pose a real threat if we underestimate them.
