So for the time being, all we can do is patiently wait to see what Saturday says, and (more significantly) see what Jim Irsay says.

They were awful.

They didn't have to give up, they got their asses kicked in almost every game that they played.

They were the antithesis of the team that won their division, the Washington Redskins. The Giants literally scored less than half of the points that the Redskins scored that year (the Giants scored 267 points, the Redskins scored 541 points.)
