The Giants have been here before.
And before and before and ... you get the point.
The Giants are 0-1 for the seventh time in the last eight seasons, dating to a time when only two current members of the team (Eli Manning and Zak DeOssie) were in uniform. Most of those seasons ended without a playoff berth — one ended with a Super Bowl ring — but not all resulted in the cannibalizing inferno of last season.
In 2017, a frustrating season-opening loss — the Giants were held to three points in a loss to the Cowboys — spiraled into an 0-5 start, heightened by back-to-back losses on last-second field goals to the Eagles and Buccaneers.
