The New York Giants appeared to be changing the narrative of their lost season when they put together a three-game win streak earlier in December. Now, after a second straight loss, the Giants are back at the very bottom of most sports outlets’ weekly power rankings.
Monday’s loss to the Philadelphia Eagles had a closer final score than most Giants losses this year, but national pundits seem to have even harsher criticism than usual this week. Pete Prisco of CBS Sports writes that the 33-25 defeat came because the Giants “just aren’t good enough,” and several other reporters have declared this the end of Tommy Devito’s time in the limelight.
