Now all that matters is Sunday night on the road against the Commanders, because a season that began with such hope and promise is suddenly teetering on the brink.
The Giants were exposed in every way, in all three phases of the game, and as 6-1 and 7-2 have devolved into 7-5-1, the line between playoff contender and pretender has been blurred.
“It’s December football, man,” Ward said. “It’s about who the f— wants it more. It’s more to it than just doing your job. … You have to do more. How bad do you want it? Ain’t nobody gonna sit here and give it to us. It’s really how bad do you really, really want it?” Bill Kostroun/New York Post This will be a test of their self-proclaimed resilience, because the Eagles battered and bloodied the Giants from pillar to post, a true mismatch between a heavyweight and a group that resembles a light-heavyweight club fighter. The Eagles ran for 253 yards, 192 in the second half. Jalen Hurts toyed with the soft Giants defense. Barkley was preserved in part because of his questionable neck. . Kickoff coverage was brutal. The Giants didn’t belong on the same field as the Eagles.
If it was painful for Giants fans to watch, think of how painful it was for Xavier McKinney to again watch as he waits for medical clearance.
