If ever the start of a season felt like a turning point for better or worse in a team’s future, this one might be it. In the third year of the Joe Schoen/Brian Daboll regime, the New York Giants appeared going in to finally have a capable offensive line, finally have a bona fide WR1, finally have a pass rush that can get home from left/right/middle. To go even further, the season would begin with two winnable but far from easy games, followed by a five-week stretch of games against teams who would surely be favored. Get off to a fast start against the Minnesota Vikings, survive the gauntlet that follows, and this might be a season to remember.
