I don't get how a fan of a 1-5 team can chest thump this hard. I'm sure beating the Donks in Denver felt great, but to act like that game wasn't an outlier at this point is ridiculous. The Hawks currently have a stronger roster at every position group, though an argument can be made for the offensive lines. To suggest Darkwa is unstoppable is laughable. There isn't a single RB in the league that's unstoppable.
The Giants basically have to run the table at this point to make it to the playoffs. Yeah, they're going to be motivated, but losing to the Lions, Bucs and Chargers shouldn't inspire much confidence so far this season. Their offense was arguably the healthiest it will be all season and they put up 3 points against the Cowboys to start the season - you said it yourself, Shepard is better than OBJ ( :lol: )... Blah blah blah, Darkwa wasn't starting, the OC wasn't calling the plays, blah blah blah.
I'm not saying that it's impossible for the Giants to win, but have some perspective and respect for a team that's proven their grit and talent year-after-year for 5 seasons now. The Giants have one winning season in 4 years and the media and their fans can't help but act like they're a top franchise again. That 0-5 start has proven otherwise.
I guess I trust in consistency and patterns more than I do one-off desperation wins.
