So 07 just fits inside the decade long window so it's relevant. Got it.
If they beat Green Bay then we beat them does that start a new decade of relevance?
The fact that you think Sunday's game Is a factor at all is concerning.
When have you had a good feeling about the team?In 2012 you rarely, if at all, posted during the winning streak.
If you can't get behind a 13-3 team that sat most of its starters and all of its best players Sunday then when can you enjoy being the FAN of a team? You seem to want to bring others down as well. It seems odd to me.
Possibly there's a site that purely focuses on critiquing a team or sport and that may be more enjoyable for you.
The facts are the Giants under ELi have a history of beating us in playoff/elimination games. It started in 07 and the last time we faced them in an elimination game in 2011 they beat us again. Nothing changed after 5 years, when it came down to do or die they found a way to beat us. Not saying we'll lose to them again but they have our number in the games that matter most. We mailed it in on Sunday and Garrett said entering the season finale in 2014 that we were playing to win despite that game being meaningless because that's how we do things here and we pounded Washington. We entered the playoffs on a positive note and it led to us winning a playoff game and giving Green Bay all they could handle. Garrett talked about entering the playoffs with momentum but decided to pull a Wade Phillips and mail the game in causing us to play our worst game all season. He pulled Dak when he wasn't even playing that well and played our worst QB most of the game to make sure we looked like crap entering the playoffs. While we were mailing that game in the Giants knocked Washington out of the playoffs playing all their starters despite the game being meaningless to them because that's how they do things and it's led to championships.
Green Bay looked good winning on Sunday and Atlanta went out and got a win. The last time we mailed a season finale in, looking ahead to the playoffs it led to a one and done in 07. You would have thought we would have had enough pride to go out and try and do something this franchise has never done and win 14 games but NO we want this season to resemble the 2007 season as much as we can. Hopefully Garrett doesn't give his blessings to players to head to Cabo before the playoffs. Both Dak and Zeke's MVP chances may have been affected by kissing off that last game. I said a few weeks ago wrapping things up too early may have been the worst thing that could have happened to us. All I know is the 2 playoff games we've won the past 10 years we headed into the playoffs on a winning note. The times we lost our season finale it led to a one and done. Again, I'm not saying the same thing will happen but we've looked our best in the playoffs after finishing the regular season with a win. We should have played our starters a half and allowed Dak to get into a rhythm before pulling him. He took a solid hit on one play and that scared Garrett and he pulled him sooner than he probably planned.
Zeke should have gotten some carries he still had goals he wanted to accomplish and you could see he was disappointed. He's never been on a team that's mailed a game in. I had a good feeling about the team but ending the season on a sour note has lost some of the optimism I had. I felt good about the team beating Detroit in 2014 in the playoffs and predicted a win. I liked our attitude heading in and the way we were playing. We kicked butt in that final game against Washington despite it being meaningless because Garrett said that's how we do things here. We were 3-2 in Dec/Jan this season which isn't very good. We're not playing our best football right now and we'll just have to see what happens in the playoffs but the odds don't favor us reaching the SB. I'm not saying we won't reach the SB but the odds aren't in our corner. If my posts have a negative affect on you don't read them.
