Week 7 Post Game Review: Historic Giant’s Collapse Led to A Broncos “Boomerang” Esque Comeback
We finally met at the flag pole after school. After a week full of passive aggressive comments against our young studs, and Broncos Twitter hoping our players tear their ACLs…we were able to finally meet up and squabble. 4 o’clock Eastern at the flag pole and our big boys met their big boys and duked it out. We dominated them. Beat them up and down the block and shut them out for almost an entire three quarters of a NFL football game.
Their “prized jewel” Nik Bonitto, not only didn’t dominate as promised, but he avoided our all-pro left tackle almost entirely and lined up on the right side, like a gigantic ‘insert mean name here’.
The gluteus maximus whooping was fun, it was great actually….which contained many happy tears, and many plans for the future/savings plans for future Super Bowls. THEN….we remembered who the fuck we were. We remembered we don’t deserve happiness. We forgot that to the core of a New York Giant’s fan is someone who truly wants something to bitch about. If you know me and watched that game on Sunday….you know my health was at actual risk. I jumpstarted my heart about twelve times during our utter disaster of a blown game. It was like we got into a fist fight, proceeded to beat the opponent’s ass…and then headbutted a brick wall in celebration at the end and knocked ourselves out. Then, while we were knocked out, our opponent woke up from the dead and kicked us in the teeth while we were down. Then stole our ladies.
It was a tough loss…historic even, and I’m really not sure where to point my angst with this team…but I know one thing is for certain. If we don’t go into 2026 with a top 10 kicker on this roster I am going to boycott this team for good…maybe.
Positives from the Game
We were the better team. The bright future of our young players shined bright and even the people of Denver couldn’t deny they were impressed with how tough of a fight we put up.
Jaxson looked good at times.
Cam Skattebo is awesome.
Brian Burns is awesome.
Abdul Carter almost got his first sack, then we accepted a penalty and took it away.
Year is halfway over…we can start planning our draft party now.
Negatives from the Game
We were winning, by a lot, for a long time, and then…we lost.
Fool me once (no kicker) shame on you, fool me twice (no kicker) shame on me, and fool me three times (kicker who can’t kick an extra point) shame on the entire organization forever and always and whatever country Jude the kicker comes from.
Shane Bowen: Hey bud….when we’re winning…we are doing it for a certain reason. Let’s stop changing the entire way that we play defense when we have a lead…again. You know, the whole shame on me thrice situation.
Joe Schoen. I’ve fallen on the sword for this guy too many times to count. And when I say fallen on the sword, I mean debating my aunt and uncle and strangers online about how hey may not be doing that bad of a job. But HEY…what the fuck do I know. Maybe, just maybe, our fourth game where we lack the ability to KICK THE FOOTBALL and lost the game because of it…I think it’s time to say bye bye Joey boy.
Andrew Thomas vs Nik Bonitto Battle Result
Thomas punked him. Bonitto cowarded away from him like a wittle puppy. Some stat nerd said he switches sides during a game about 5% of the time prior to playing Andrew Thomas. Then he goes into the game talking smack and going head to head vs Thomas and he switches sides over 30% to better his matchup.
Thomas= Victorious.
PLAYER OF THE GAME:
Marlboro Light— my emergency supply came in clutch after watching the New York Giants dominate, then blow the lead, then heroically come back to win…..or wait and then they BLEW IT AGAIN.
Outlook on the Rest of the Giant’s Season
Not a great feeling right now. There’s plenty to be lame and positive about. It truly does seem like we found our quarterback. This team is exciting and actually gets first downs for once in the last decade. I just HATE playing games that aren’t realistically to go for a playoff birth. It hurts and it stinks and we should be 4-3 right now and it makes me sound pathetic when I say it out loud…but IT’S TRUE.
By Thursday I’ll have talked myself into caring again and the excitement will build. I’ll have day dreams of Jaxson Dart scrambling around the pocket looking like a lost puppy just to escape and launch a missile to the nearest slow white Tight end. I love this team, and i’m not proud of it.
