I agree. Been watching since about the same time. But the Giants are funny that way. Remember back in '86? Even though they ended the season with a great 14-2 record, they weren't dominant until late in the season. Same thing applied to '07 and '11. They became a different team right before the playoffs. Even the '90 season, they go on to beat all the teams they lost to in the regular season in the playoffs. With a backup QB. I was actually worried they might do it again in '16.
Yep, I hear ya man. Giants history does speak to the getting hot at the right time mantra. And for the most part defensively as others posted. One of the Games greatest in LT with all those quality Lbs (Carson, Reasons, Banks, Van Pelt and Pepper Johson)in 86 and 90. And then Strahans last hurrah with Osi and Tuck on the d line in '07 to be followed up by JPPs run with Osi and Tuck in '11.
Always bugged the crap outta me that
Dallas couldn't have just ONE postseason where they got hot at the right time.
Their identity unfortunately has been to under achieve when playoff ball begins.
Really sad.
