I didn't see the game so you all may be referring to yet another uniform I haven't seen but if they are the red ones I am thinking of.... I felt the same way about red shirts and gray pants with the 3 color piping. Then I learned that they are actually throwback uniforms, back to a time I can't recall. I still don't like them. Yeah the red jerseys were from back in the days. So was the "NY", when they used to play in NY. I was referring to the white away jerseys with red font, and ZERO blue on them. Not a big fan. Looks cheap. Especially with the gray pants and electric blue helmet that looks like cheap plastic. LOL wall mart Giants kid uni.

It’s a win, period. For a franchise and fanbase that has been so starved of them for years who give a **** how or why it happened. We may not be a very good team but this new staff (FO and coaching) are building something. And you can see it happening. thats all we can take from today. 3-1....... I have to agree been a while that the season wasn't on the brink the first week of October. As Giants fans have to savior the fact that it appears we are in good hands and actually have a winning record after 4 games, don't care how it happened and hope they keep finding ways to win.

You need to stop setting these high expectations, this is a rebuilding team. We struggled against a very weak team today. Just accept progress, don’t expect wins against good teams. Like the fact that Giants gave-up no touchdowns today. I'm not saying at all that the Giants will split their next two games. Need to see who'll be available to play. Rather than try to provide Jones with more pass protection he decided in this game to have the Giants run the ball far more than they passed it. Such hid the Giants offensive line and WR weaknesses. your boy Hamiton got to play RT today. 25 snaps or so after Neal was injured. As I kept telling you he is a back up T and not G.

Need pass catchers for that pretty soon it will be 8 man boxes with a Ninth lurking defending the run and quick game they need help asap.

Your position is that Daboll has had good reason not to play him, and now you ignore how he played for 25-snaps, and now you are pleased he played RT, not the G position. Since the Giants are struggling in pass protection at both the G and RT positions, I'm just glad he's finally playing more. He looked good in the run game and had but one poor pass protection play. Hope he gets to play more this up-coming week so a further assessment can be made of his skill-set. No doubt if Hamilton plays well in pass protection at RT, Neal as a the 7th pick in the draft will once again start when he's able to play. Whoever plays RT is going to have a real challenge playing the Packers. gets on the field.

I didnt say anything negative about it at all. Daboll only played him because Neal got hurt. You realize that right? He is on the depth chart as a T and he filled a spot.

I agree with you but something to keep in mind is we have been a running team. That keeps the clock moving. Less possessions for both teams to score a lot of points. We are basically shortening the game.

Whether its going to be the TEs or screen plays they need to get the passing game in gear at least a little

Whether its going to be the TEs or screen plays they need to get the passing game in gear at least a little I totally agree but we need to get some WR to throw to. I was happy to see Dabes went to some 3 TE offense both to help our blocking but also to use our TE as pass catchers since our WR were busy doing other things.

Ian Rappaport just updated NYG QB situation--DJ day to day and a good chance he goes in London. He also said it looks like Webb will get promoted from the practice squad. So, my question is, if Webb gets snaps in practice as a Giant QB who mimicks Rodgers in practice? I'm off this Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday...

You can separate the team,result and hating the logo ... I'm not positive but I think the GIANTS on the side of the helmet stemmed from when they moved from NY to NJ and they felt that having NY on the side of the helmet was a slight to NJ.

My point is that Hamilton should have been playing in prior games as both our starting Gs and RT are poor pass protectors. You've trusted Daboll's judgment in not playing him. Daboll should have as most offensive lineman are poor pass protectors. Contrary to your assertion, he's not just a tackle, even though he's listed as a back-up tackle on depth chart.

Maybe Hamilton turns out to be good. he now has his shot.

Just like the 1990s era Rodney Hampton Ball era

Just like the 1990s era Rodney Hampton Ball era Almost any game with this WR core is over. I think we were down 13-0 to Tenn but we had Shep for that game.

Daboll, in all of his post game locker room talks, always mentions building a foundation. He has the players buying to building something for not only this season but to get this team and org back to respectability and being competitive going forward. Has them believing they are part of something bigger than just this season. Thats not an easy task since so many players come and go every season. Nothing is more important than the process.
At least thats my take on what he is saying.

The only undefeated season in the NFL was the Miami Dolphins in 1972, with a run first offense, started 2 RBs in the backfield at all times and a very strong defense. They had Paul Warfield a great WR but he was not a priority in their system……that is something the Giants could develop into in a few years and it doesn’t waste millions on prima Donna WRs. Stay stuck in 1972 fool.. This is 2022,no team is going to win anything more than 9 games at most year. I speak for the rest of the board when I say thank God your prehistoric relic ass doesn't run this team.. It's possible that a team can win nine game this year. They added an extra game
