Washington is in the Meadowlands in a meaningless game that if you go to in this weather you deserve the frostbite you'll surely get. Do you want to watch Kirk Cousins beat the G-Men? Of course not, stay home and worry about...

The Browns have clinched the #1 overall pick. With a loss the Giants have the #2 pick locked up. Then they wait for the Browns to make the mistake of picking Rosen or Darnold or Lamar Jackson first, then they take Saquon Barkley. At this point with questions about each QB the Browns would be wise to take Barkley #1 and if the Giants want to pick one of those three the Browns would have two more to choose from. Wait, what about the Colts? Good question. One of the more intriguing games today is in Indy where Houston, directly behind the Colts in the draft order goes to finish the season. If the Colts win today the Browns will draft #1 and #3. If not it'll be 1 and 4. The Colts are not going to take a QB with Andrew Luck so again, the Browns would have two of the three to choose from.
1) Cleveland Browns -- In Pittsburgh for their yearly hiding
2) New Jersey Giants -- Hosting Washington with subzero wind chills
3) Indianapolis Colts -- At home to Houston. GO COLTS!
4) Houston Texans -- Just lose in Indy, find a way
5) Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- Where are your Buccaneers? Under my Buc'n hat

Giants football Gameday!
Look, theres only one reason this game matters, draft picks. We're not going to go into any depth about the Giants needing to establish a run against today's opponent, the San Francisco 49ers, we don't care about how bad the Niners pass defense matches up with Big Blue tight ends and wideouts, so lets just skip down to the draft watch, THAT is why we're here today.
Draft Watch®
1) San Francisco 49ers (0-9)
2) Cleveland Browns (0-8)
3) New York Giants (1-7)
4) Tampa Bay Buccaneers (2-6)
5) Indianapolis Colts (3-6)
You can clearly see why today's game is so important. Should the Giants LOSE to San Fran, they'd slide into the #2 slot behind Cleveland. The Browns are in Detroit today and will more than likely be 'turkey-holed' to death by Matthew Stafford at Ford Field. Another point in a Giants loss, the Giants would have to win another game for San Fran to slide back in front (if you will). A loss gives the Giants the tiebreaker with the Niners. Indy hosts the Stoolers today so we'd be willing to bet the Colts go to 3-7. The Jets, just off this list, are in Tampa today. That game could go either way so do keep an eye on it.

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 108ยบ 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?

Breaking News: Rutgers head football coach to leave to coach the Tampa Bay Buccaneers -- UPDATED
It would seem a late time for a head coaching change with recruiting still going on but a head coaching change in Piscataway it is. The timing really does leave the Scarlet Knights in a bind with signing day close at hand. We think Schiano was a fine Rutgers head coach but boy we just don't see how that parlays into success with the Yuckaneers.
No word on any new head coach at Rutgers as of yet...
Update 4:40 pm
Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out there Greggie. There's a right way and a wrong way to leave a job such as yours. You have chosen to STIFF Rutgers and the recruits you asked to trust you. Former Rutgers head coach Greg Schiano was SUPPOSED to meet with assistant coaches and recruits this morning, Dave Hooker with ESPN takes it from there:
As scheduled, five Rutgers assistant coaches showed up at the Ramsey, N.J., school, which showcases several highly rated prospects each year. The coaches were focused on securing current commitment Leonte Carroo, a three-star receiver, and Darius Hamilton, a four-star defensive end who is primarily considering the Scarlet Knights and Florida.
Schiano never showed up nor called anyone. He just left the kids and his assistants hanging. What a classless thing to do. Those kids by the way are still free to play anywhere they want to and some just might according to Hooker:
With six days before national signing day, Rutgers suddenly finds itself in an incredible time crush to secure its 2012 class. Who will be Rutgers' next coach, but perhaps almost as importantly, how many assistants will stay at the school? Even with a new head coach, those relationships could still pay dividends in recruiting. If Rutgers decides to go elsewhere to hire a coach, those assistants may be gone. An in-house hiring could ease the transition a bit, but it will be a challenge no matter what.
It's really baffling why Schiano chose to leave through a back door and keep walking. For all the good he's done for the program this was just a really poor final chapter.
