Giants football Gameday!

As the world around us devolves into madness, the Giants have become a microcosm of said whirling suck. The losing, the poor efforts, the touchdown celebrations that cost money and yards, and then last week a walk-off 61 yard FG to beat them. It's a mess, there are a million different people with different ways on how to fix 0-3 but with a feeling deep down this shitwreck of a season is over already (more on that in a bit). Today does provide one last Jon Snow coming back from the dead opportunity as the NFC isn't the best division in football. 1-3 must then become 2-3 but one game at a time.

Big Blue is down in Tampa today to take on the Buccaneers (Hey, where are your Buccaneers? Under my Buc'n hat) who are 1-1 after having one game hurricane'd out. We do know from the Bucs first two games you cannot run on them but boy can you pass on them. Giants fans, did those ears just perk up? 72 yards against on the ground on average (if there's a true average after just two games) but 335 in the air against and THAT does standout. Both the Vikings and Bears were able to throw on Tampa Bay, and they're not exactly the Patriots are they? If the New York offense did finally wake up in the 4th quarter last week then it should be able to keep on keeping on today. Johnny doesn't exactly see either team with a committed ground game today as it's just going to be too hot, 91 in Tampa with a heat index of 108º by the 4pm game time. Depth could be what wins today. Nobody can get used to that weather, it's ghastly.

So then, can the Giants contain Mike Evans who is Jameis Winston's favorite receiver and all-around big time, big play threat? Let's think on this, IF the G-Men can contain Evans, and that stout d-line can indeed control the game against the run and pressure Winston (3 TD's 3 INT's) the Giants could shorten this game and get the upset. In fact, if the Giants can fairly deal with the heat and humidity he thinks they matchup quite well with Tampa thank you.

So, your team is 0-4. Let's suppose things go wrong in Tampa and the Giants fall to 0-4 and the season is for all intents and purposes over, Johnny being a Browns fan has tips for you as 0-4 is like a bad penny, it keeps coming around for him. Look, who cares until Draft Day, it's not your problem. Go to brunch. Go to a movie, put up your Christmas lights or hope Barcelona is playing in LaLiga on BeIn Sports. All you'll need now is an NFL score app where you punch in the following teams in the race to the #1 overall pick, Browns, Chargers, Bears, Jaguars, 49ers, & Jets (The Rams just got off the list). As a Giants fan you cheer for these teams to win games by any means necessary. Yes, you DO have to hope your team loses, it's odd for a Giants fan but trust Johnny. At 0-4 you're going to have to understand that win in November against Washington dropped you from the #4 draft spot to #8. Capice?

There you go, one last gasp vs a fall of freed up Sundays, which will it be?
