It's Eli Manning Day And The First Game Of The Rest Of The Giants Season
Y'all bitches know what day it is! The ball from last week's game has been buried, the NFL calendar has flipped to Week 3, and today is all about a two-time Super Bowl MVP that defeated the greatest coach, quarterback, and dynasty we will ever see in the biggest game. Twice.
Oh yeah and the Giants have a Must Win game against the Falcons. Can't forget about that little nugget!
The Falcons have quickly sunken to NFL Punchline territory with teams like the Jets, the Bengals, and well let's be honest the Giants. Which is why even though I feel good about this game after seeing Atlanta's defense play the last two weeks, Big Blue has not given us any reason to think a game is even close to a possible W.
I'm not sure what James Bradberry did to the schedule makers for these first three weeks, but there is another stud WR1 to deal with in Calvin Ridley after Jerry Jeudy and Terry McLaurin the first two weeks. From what I can gather from the pre-draft reports, Kyle Pitts is what you would get if Calvin Johnson and Rob Gronkowski made a baby together, which the mere thought of those two titans going at it to create a superfreak NFL player sends shivers down my spine. I also fully expect Arthur Smith to call a bunch of weird ass plays that he ran for the Titans last year ready for Cordarrelle Patterson. However, as someone who has had wayyyyy too many Falcons on his team way over the last decade, I can only hope that Matty "Ice" will continue to stall out any time Atlanta makes it into the redzone like he has countless times in his career.
Regardless of what the Falcons do on offense, the bottom line is if the Giants offense can't put up points against this Falcons "defense", Kenny Golladay needs to stop yelling at Jason Garrett and instead chokeslam him through a table. I need Saquon to mix in a couple of 4 yard runs like Wayne Gallman used to do in addition to his occasional 40+ yard outburst, Kadarius Toney to do something so the media can stop busting his balls and Daniel Jones to shut the haters the fuck up since everyone is penciling him in as a fantasy sleeper this week after he did this last week.
Sorry we don't speak of that game anymore. But we are riding the Danwagon on the Barstool Sportsbook today.
Speaking of ummmm speaking, these videos are always extremely well done as the perfect temperature for the Giants fanbase.
