The Giants have lost four games this season that they’ve led at some point in the fourth quarter. That said, their loss to the Redskins on Sunday might be the most devastating this 5-6 team has endured.
To come out of a bye week and not score until the fourth quarter is both frustrating and confusing, but it’s mostly just depleting. The season’s not over yet, but these types of performances are what cause fans to lose confidence in a team pretty quickly.
It was more than just one loss: the Giants dropped a game to their divisional opponent, are no longer in control of their destiny, and lost arguably their best offensive lineman for the season with a broken leg.
