Giants are pissed off and we suck balls on the road this year.

Well Suck might be a bit harsh. If we were 0-6 on the road then SUCK would apply.

SD was a great win and set the tempo for the season. Minnesota we started out great and then laid an egg to a deperate Minnesota team, TB we spotted them 14 points and went and stayed flat. All around bad game. Oakland and Detroit were W's not pretty but W's none the less. Atlanta, well you don't spot a GOOD team 17pts at home and then expect to come back. We almost did then the wheels feel off. But that was an eye opener. We have started strong in each game since. So we learn from our mistakes.

I would love for us to win this game. Giving us home field advantage. The Giants are not the same team as they were before Jacob and Burress went down. No doubt it will be a struggle but I believe we are healthier and are ready to show the NFC we are the team to beat.

HOWEVER.....remember week 16 2007. The Giants played the New England Patroits and lost. But they learned how to beat them that day. I truly believe that had NYG hadn't of played NE then NE would have gone undefeated and won the Super Bowl. This game could be our study game.

We'll win the NFC South and have a first round bye.

Go Panthers

Hi,

Just wanted to make a comment on the whole "we suck balls on the road" belief it seems most people have.

Contrary to this popular belief, we have only lost 3 road games this year, two of which coming against divisional opponents...a division that boast something like a 26 and 2 record at home!

To be honest I think we have played well on the road save one game against Minn.

While I do believe the Giants game will be a tough fought game, and no easy victory for anyone, I don't think we should think of the panthers as a team that don't play well on the road; I mean we are batting .500 (3-3)

Anyway, just my two cents on the matter :)

GO PANTHERS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

...........and we suck balls on the road this year.

I dont get why people keep saying this? both fans, and media. Since when is 3-3 on the road that horrible? Granted the three loses werent pretty - but at the Bucs, Falcons, and Min on the road is no easy task. Plus, wasnt this team the "road warriors" just last year,the year before and in the playoffs. I am not that worried about a John Fox team being ready to play this game agains the Giants on the road.

The Meadowlands will be tough. I won't feel that bad if we lose. I just hope it's a blow out if we do. None of that field goal as time expires bullsh*t. A big loss will be motivation to the team; and we ARE an emotional team, that's just how we win.

I know what you are saying...but...BUT...I'd rather not see us trounced up too bad going into the playoffs.

W or L, I want us to be in the game until it's over.

    • Well we won 5 games and it took the worst defense in NFL history to do that.  IF we can stay relatively healthy and Bryce plays just like he did (not even saying better) after the benching you could arguably debate 9-10 wins. I wouldn't hold my breath but I wouldn't be shocked.  The defensive improvement should be remarkable actually. Same corners, new dline, DB's return, updated safeties, same LB's ...+ the Dline's improvement should make every position about 25% better. If that's good enough to stop atleast 2 touchdowns more than we were able to last season then yea we're about to suprise alot of people imho. 
    • The Sanders family's problem is that they raised Shedeur to have the exact same mindset and persona as Deion, and then used Deion as the example as to why it's not a problem.  Even in that public interview at the combine, he gave some answer like, "do you know who my dad was and the things they said about him and he was still a HOFer?" The problem is his dad was a CB and sometimes a WR, the two positions in the NFL where not only nobody cares if you have that outward persona, in many cases it's something teams look for because WRs and CBs need to have that mentality out there on an island. His interview answer that's been going around about where you see yourself in 5 years, and his response of being Mayor of that town and laughing is a perfect example of it. There is no issue if that's your QB's mentality, we all know how Cam was.  The problem is there is a different between mentality and outward persona, and that just flat out doesn't work for a QB to have that persona, Cam didn't even do it. There are a lot of QB's who have that mindset, in particular, Burrow right now strikes me as that kind of guy.  But he still knows how to flip that QB Switch and tones it back when speaking publicly and is able to be the face of the franchise. Shedeur and Deion never seemed to grasp that for some reason, and it's a problem. Have you ever heard reports of GM's being asked by defensive players on their team to draft a QB solely because they wanted to crush them in practice? That's wild to even think of, let alone hear about actually happening.  QB is unlike any position in all of sports, whether fair or not, you have to act differently when speaking in public or on camera, and Shedeur just doesn't, if anything, he leans even more into his Deion like persona.
