Week 1: Tales from the timeline

For the second consecutive year, the New York Giants had an abysmal start to their season. Brian Flores’ unit stymied the offense; the defense couldn’t stop Sam Darnold, and the floodgates of negativity were correctly unbolted as the Giants lost to the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday, 28-6.

Positivity surrounding this Giants’ team is like finding Waldo at a crowded panoramic festival of red-striped shirt enthusiasts. The offensive line, sans Andrew Thomas, was not as good as expected; the quarterback had a horrendous performance, and the defensive line only managed 11 pressures, with six credited to Dexter Lawrence.
