The New York Giants are a dysfunctional mess. Thursday night in a rain-drenched, dismal, disheartened, half-empty MetLife Stadium another winter came early to Giants football. In embarrassing fashion.
In a game where they could have saved their season, the Giants instead humiliated themselves, losing to the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday night, 34-13.
“We didn’t do anything well enough to win tonight”
That was coach Pat Shurmur after the game. And, he’s right. The Giants, despite the brilliance of Saquon Barkley and the impact play of Olivier Vernon [see today’s complete ‘Kudos & Wet Willies], played like a team that simply wasn’t in the same universe as the defending Super Bowl champions.
