Re: Giants Game Negatives
It's pretty simple. This team/franchise fails because it's in their nature to fail. It's in the DNA, from the front office on down. There are no winners here, none. None who give enough of a crap to care. None who will do the work and make the sacrificies to get things done. It's been this way for 20+ years so why anyone thinks it's every going to change is beyond me.
Players continue to make the same stupid mistakes. The front office makes stupid mistakes and stubbornly refuses to build any depth whatsoever. And fans continue to hope. It's remarkable, reading people's posts last night and today, listening to fans and the sycophants on local radio, how things change radically. Two weeks ago, after the team's first win after nine straight losses going back to last year, you'd think this team was 5-0 and rocking and rolling the way people talked. They beat the horrificlly bad Jaguars, and suddenly the offense is unstoppable, the defense is 85-Bearish and the coaches are geniuses, unlike the evil Shanahans who drove this franchise into the ground, as if it wasn't already six feet under when they got here. Cousins was the next coming of the franchise QB, people keep conveniently blocking out his mediocre to bad performances prior to this season...I saw everything from people predicting 9-7/10-6/11-5 records and playoffs...uh huh. Then reality set in when the team played you know, a professional NFL team last week. Albeit one with a poor secondary. So Cousins continued to look like a world beater until Philly started putting pressure on him. Oops. That ended the comparisons to Joe Montana, compounded by the disgraceful performance last night... Then another prime time embarrassment, in a "home" game where large chunks of the crowd were again in the oppositions colors. Cousins looked worse than Grossman on HIS worst day. The defense was comically bad. The coaches were again outclassed and clueless. None of this will end anytime soon. With Seattle and Arizona next, this team will be 1-5 and probably will end with at least 10-12 losses again for yet another subpar campaign. The franchise QB that they stupidly traded away the world for, is so fragile he's at the point where he could get out of his car for practice and something will tear or snap. Cousins is what he is, a 4th round pick with very limited potential. The special teams and defense are laughably bad. The Seattle game on MNF will at least add to the recent string of prime time disasters/embarrassment. This whole team needs to be blown up and sunk in the Bay and then rebuilt like an expansion team, but unfortunately that won't happen. |
