It just doesn’t make much sense is all. You’ve been beating that drum only for them to lose and you’re clearly upset about it. You just can’t seem to figure out the issue is your own emotional attachment to what was at the time the worst team in the league. Whatever you might think about Dallas, you are only interested in discussing them in relation to the Giants, they are always far better than NY and they prove it every year. Twice a year. To answer the question you’ve avoided, they haven’t beat Dak in 7 years. It’s hilarious that you think that somehow proves the Giants superiority.
Good to see you are back to being a stalker.

I hope Dak gets a 10 year extension based on his record vs the giants. he has earned it and he is just amazing. Such a leader and a winner.

But you’re a big proponent of a much worse and less successful QB? It’s crazy how you come to these conclusions. My favorite was when you told me to remind you when Dallas beat them and then cried about it. Kind of seems to be your thing

Your thing seems to be stalking people and after being proven wrong still continuing the stalking.

that and being one of the biggest homers ever on this site.

lol...oh, dude, he is far from being the biggest homer on this site! I'm not going to name names but I can count to five, maybe ten.

I mean I read your post and responded to it. Then you cried. I believe your issue was that you were sure the 2021 Giants would be very good. They were terrible as usual so I’m not sure how you got my being wrong out of it. But by your logic you’re currently stalking me

The point hit you straight in the head so you got that going for you. Not a tantrum, a mod made a thread and I'm doing what every other poster on this board does. Why is it a tantrum when I'm doing in and totally normal when an Eagle fan does it. Maybe my plan is actually working.
Anyone who thinks the Cowboys are better than the Giants is either a homer or someone who watched them go 11-1 against them. #logic

So with the rosters almost set now.
Time to focus on the opening game.

Title says too early, but is it really. 8 days we will have the opening TNF game.

I have not paid too much attention to what the Giants have done this off season. And have seen a little of their PS games, which means nothing.

Anyone keep up on their off season moves, draft, injured players?
Focus has been if Dallas closed the gap with Philly and SF. Though I say the gap was not all that great anyway. I believe we did.

Has the NYG closed the gap on us, or did we widen it?

Weapons are upgraded as they traded for the TE Waller and he is finally healthy. They also drafted a speedy deep threat for a WR Hyatt in the 3rd round and signed speedster Campbell from Indy. They continue to upgrade the Oline with the best center in the draft in the 2nd round. Took a CB with the first pick and their defense continues to improve. Both Danny Jones and Barkley resigned.

I don’t know if the gap between Dallas and NY widened, narrowed or stayed the same because both teams did things to improve. However, I will tell you that I think the Giants are going to be better than last year. They’ve gotten better (IMO) on both sides of the ball and in year 2 of the coaching staff, I would expect some improvement anyway.

The NFL season is always different than what you expect and it is a tough league to win in consistently, so who knows what happens… but I definitely don’t think the Giants are going to be an easy win for anyone. Teams shouldn’t take them lightly.

8 days?!?!? Holy smokes, that's beautiful. I knew it was approaching but have refused to look at the calander. Can't wait.

The Giants don't scare me. They exceeded expectations last year, and I expect they regress to the mean this season.

Yeah they are building, but they played well above expectations last season. They have no wrs in a passing league. I expect Waller to be a target monster at TE though. Barkley will be tough again, but there just aren't a lot of weapons to worry about. Missing on Toney set them back at the position.
“No WRs”……..a-hem, were you sleeping during the off-season?

The Giants added Parris Campbell, who caught 63 passes last year while on a very crappy Indy team with several very crappy QBs. He was finally healthy all year and he is very fast. We also added Jalin Hyatt from UT (Tenn) who caught 5 TDs in one game last year against powerful Alabama Crimson Tide. He has speed you won’t believe….ask Sauce Gardiner….last week, Jalin blew by him but the ball was overthrown down the sidelines by our 2nd string QB. This kid I predict will soon be a star in the league.

And, we already had two very good WRs in Isaiah Hodgins, who came out of nowhere to make a name for himself. He was a great possession receiver last year and caught a TD in 7 of 8 games, or something close to that. He has something like a 1% drop rate. And the improving Darius Slayton, whose biggest fault is dropping 15% of passes thrown. He worked on that during the off-season, so can’t wait to see if it helped. He too is very fast….the only fast one on the team last year.

Oh, and the men in street clothes are back - Sterling Shepard and WanDale Robinson, last years 2nd round pick. The former has been one of Jones’ most reliable receivers when healthy, and the latter was coming on strong during the season until his ACL injury. I’m not sure how much playing time either will get, especially early on, seeing that they are still recovering from an ACL injury….especially WanDale’s injury was only 9 months ago. I’m surprised he has been activated.

You know about DWaller, our new TE, plus you know how dangerous Barkley can be out of the backfield. So, in conclusion, I think you grossly underestimate the New Look Giants passing game. But, all this may not matter as much if we can’t keep guys like your Demarcus Lawrence off of Jones in the backfield. Evan Neal is supposed to be more mature and I do think if he stays healthy he will get better week to week. But Honestly, I’m probably closing my eyes in week one….I’m not sure he will be ready like I believe he will be in week 8. In order for NY to take advantage of all our newfound speed, we will need more than 1.5 seconds for the play to set up. Will our OL be up to the task? I sure hope so.

Yes, last year we had an easier schedule and that helped us be as successful as we were. This year is different…we have the AFC East besides the 3 teams in our division. We just can’t count on 20 points a game to win….we will have to score over 30 some weeks. Week one may be one of them. I’m just as excited as you are to watch how game one plays out, especially because it’s in NY In front of a very enthusiastic crowd. I doubt there will be as many Cowboy fans in the seats this year. Giant fans have come alive thanks to Mr Schoen, Mr Daboll, Mr Kafka, and Mr Martindale.

I haven’t talked about our improved defense, but that’s for another day. Cheers…K

I go to the NY boards to see what they think of Dallas for a different perspective.

Their fanbase is really energized this year. The majority believe that NY has caught Dallas and a few believe they have surpassed Dallas. Only Philadelphia is ahead of them.

They believe Daboll and Schoen are the difference makers. Schoen rebuilding the roster in two years time and Daboll is seen as a top 5 coach in the NFL. The OC/DC are also considered top shelf.

The fanbase believes this is a 2nd place team 10 to 11 win team while Dallas will 3rd place between 8 and 9 wins.

So it's just you throwing a little temper tantrum then.

Hypocrisy points for being the one to actually do what you accuse others of by attempting to derail the thread.
Why are you making up posts about me? You put me in a quote that I never said.

Sorry, you've got undeveloped talent who might be something. As of now you objectively have one of the least established wrs corps in the league.

You're the second best team in NY, mark my words.

Of course they say that after they were puffing their chest before the playoffs game with philly. I bet if they never matched up with Philly and got destroyed they'd claim to be favorites. They got humbled. Meanwhile we barely beat them so of course they're confident regarding us. But ibdont see how we don't stomp them. 2 rookie cbs? Dak better torch those scrubs

The Giants have closed the gap. Just like the Cowboys they finished as a final 8 team. We have more overall talent but the Giants have a great LT and DT. Two top of the line offensive skill players and a good coaching staff.
