We are not here to kill anyone’s buzz. We are not looking to channel Debbie Downer. And one thing we certainly will not do is try to minimize what the Giants have done across the first nine weeks and eight games of the 2026 season.
A guy who used to coach that team once said: “You are what your record says you are,” right?
Well, that applies to these Giants. Being 5-2-1 is 5-2-1, and it doesn’t matter that only one of the teams on the schedule so far has a record over .500 (and the Rams only got there this week). It doesn’t matter that the five wins (and one tie) have come against teams that sit at a combined 15-27.
You know who took maximum advantage of an easy schedule last year? The Patriots, that’s who. And that led them directly to the Super Bowl. Can the Giants emerge from the rubble that is the NFC East — in which they presently have a three-game lead in the loss column — and earn a first-round home game?
