ATLANTA — By this point of a football season, most teams are more than ready for the kind of extended break the Giants just received. They last played a game on Oct. 11. How long ago was that? We didn’t yet know about Didi Gregorius’ injured elbow. We didn’t yet know Enes Kanter would be the early king of the double-double.
We didn’t yet know that John Mara can be just as chatty as Odell Beckham Jr. when he wants to be, especially when the subject is Odell Beckham Jr.
They’ve skipped two football Sundays.
