2018 NFL Week #2 Gameday Thread: New York Giants (0-1) @ Dallas Cowboys (0-1)

More of a "must win" for the Giants with their tough slate of games coming up, but we'll see.

Battle of two bad teams.

League office has to be really sweating this one out. If it's a ratings flop they are in for a potential record breaking (bad) disaster, right off the disaster they had last year.

It's hard to say. It could be a ratings flop, or it could be a ratings boom, kinda like that train wreck nobody can turn away from...

I suspect the giants will stack the box, therefore the powers that be will abandon the run per usual

After they stupidly run right into the teeth of the loaded box the first few 1st and 10s they have.

Then say, "Okay the run isn't working today."

Its almost like you've seen that before

How about against their loaded box we check out of the run up the middle and go play-action with a GOOD fake to Zeke and catch them with their pants down on a quick slant off the fake?

Basic football even at the middle school level. Stops the box loading real quick.

I’m feeling a great game here for sure.

It's gotta be a must-win for both teams. That 0-2 start for tonight's loser is brutal.

I heard a stat that the last team to start 0-2 and make it to, and win the SB was our very own Cowboys

Actually it's the 2007 NY Giants. Before that it was the 2001 NE Pats. Then the 93 Cawboys. The Cawboys were the first but not the last to accomplish the feat.

The 96 Pats also started Owen Two and made it to the SB but lost the game. Notably, the 2014 Indianapolis Coats started Owen Two and made it to the AFC championship game but lost, as did the 02 Eagles (NFCC) and the 96 NY Jest.

Iggles not only losing their game but getting banged up. 3 lost in 1st quarter and not returning including RB Jay Ajayi and a WR and a OT. Warshton losing too... Sure would be nice if we were actually ready to play and could WIN and take early advantage of our division foes misfortunes.

 

[bbgun]

Eagles, Steelers and Skins losing would be sweet.

 

[English Cowboy]

This Bills team is shaping up to be the worst team ever assembled.

Hahaha. Your post brought 3 things to mind immediately which make it impossible to take any advantage.










Figured I would help everybody get in a good mood for tonight.

But still not as high as Randy Gregory I'll bet.

Gregory's never had double-digit sacks but he leads the league in double-digit snacks... From servicing his munchies.

Forget double digits

He’s never had “sacks” plural

Ryan Fitzpatrick on fire. I would love to see him keep the job and Crab Legs Jameis can sit on the bench.
