Giants won SB 2 years ago after 7-7

[MRV52]

At this point I would rather they lose and not make the playoffs. This team needs a huge shakeup starting from the owner all the way down. To bad Jerry won't fire himself.

Correction they are just bad on defense. Don't use injuries as a crutch, this Cowboys team just isn't very good. The coach and much if his staff are complete morons too

You don't think we would be better if we had Spencer, Crawford, and Bass in the rotation? Not saying we would be a top defense but even if we were ranked 20th we would be winning a few more games. We have no pressure at the line and honestly the defensive coaches can only do so much with a group thats always changing.

Honest question - win the next two and win the division and get another year of this coaching staff.

Spilt or lose the next two and the coaching staff gets booted.

What would you take?

This team isn't coached well the defense may be a little better but this team would still be bad. Kiffen is horrible, Garrett is over his head and All the Jones are inept.

Interesting. Where they really 32nd in the league?

 

[ScipioCowboy]

I hear this comparison every year, yet it never comes true.

Because it was an aberration.

25th.

You know I am a Giants fan right?

After I was physically attacked in Philly, they are the only team I hate with a passion. I can't stand seeing them win the division and I am Dallas supporter in this years race. That being said, this is not a feel good thread. And I know something happening in the past is not a guarantee that it will happen again. But it MIGHT happen.

The similarities are big. Giants were 7-4 then 7-7 then won the division at 9-7 by defeating a division rival at home. That year, Giants had the 32nd ranked D yet this didn't prevent them to win the SB

Dallas was 7-5 now 7-7 and their last game is at home against the division rival.

I am not saying it is going to happen. I am saying playoffs are still a possibility for Dallas. Trying to bring more perspective by providing a historical example.

Most regulars here know you're a Giants fan, and thanks for the bit of sunshine on a dark and stormy day!

 

[Reverend Conehead]

We're not that team.

 

[pacy]

25th.

Well, I guess that's a difference then. Not much but still.

Crawford and Bass were just as unproven as Selvie and Haydon going into the season, and Spencer is not the difference between the worst defense in Cowboys history and even a mediocre NFL defense.

 

[munkee]

At one point, we were 7-5

Lost 2 straight and it was 7-7.

2 do or die games and suddenly we are in the playoffs.

That year, Giants D was 32nd in the league.

Just saying.

It is never over until the last game.

HA! Oh man. I like this guy.

 

[BourbonBalz]

This team won its last game this season on Thanksgiving Day. Mark it down.

 

[Zman5]

Or a D who doesn't give up multiple TD drives two weeks in a row.

To a backup QB.

 

[Zman5]

We were 8-6 with two games left past two years. Guess what happened?

 

[mldardy]

Well it's the Eagles turn then.

 

[Zman5]

Well it's the Eagles turn then.

I can only hope but with this team...

 

[bgolf90]

Come on man really your going there with that comparison. not even close

 

[BIGDen]

Lol are we still comparing our team with what other teams did in the past? You need a QB that gets hot and stays hot and that we don't have.

This is garbage. The giants DEFENSE got hot that postseason. Eli had some good games but has never been the main reason they won SBs. That game against he Niners was all about Kylle Williams and fumbled punt returns. Eli did nothing except take advantage of two short fields provided by those Williams gaffes. We blew a TWENTY THREE POINT LEAD today. Romo made mistakes but this defense is why we've lost this year. They're terrible on an all-time level. Blaming the QB for this loss (not that he was without any blame) is really moronic when you see how horrific this defense is playing.
