Will the Giants make the playoffs?

The Cardinals could of went 7-9 in that division last year and still made the playoffs. The Giants don’t have that luxery this year. Philly and Dallas might not be world beaters but they’re 10-6 teams.

It’s going to be tough. Even if we beat Dallas, they still have that one game in the W column. If we lose to Philly, and we are tied at seasons end, they hold the tie breaker. These are two scenarios that come to mind which doesn’t take into account what other teams may do for the WC!

Honestly though, the Giants have to be competitive first to even have consideration for a W. They may have beat Atl., it’s how they had to do it, which it shouldn’t have gone to that point!

So if the Giants control their own destiny, i wouldn’t feel too comfortable right now.

Last night I wrote that its a hard road, but its doable.

It all starts on the next game. Beat them, and we’re only 1/2 a game behind. Lose and we’re doomed.

Ever the optimist, I think we can pull it off. But hey, I thought we’d beat the broncos 31-14.

but the math says it ain’t over.

Until we’re out of it…we’re in it.

So hell yea, we’re making the playoffs…and winning the SB.

DAL
PHI
@WAS
CAR
@MIN

Man, wins against the Cowboys and Philly are essential.

I think this last game against Minnesota will define if the Giants will go to the playoffs or not.

but I doubt it, and even if you made the first round, you’d be knocked out.

but realism has entered the picture. If our D can’t make a stop unless the other team drops the 3rd down pass, and our O can’t get a first down without a penalty against the defense…..then, “Playoffs?!”

I’ll have to modify. If our D continues down the current path….BIG NO
If we ever learn to adapt and overcome, then….YES

I hate to say that, but I see no reason to beleive that they can fix any of the problems that they haven’t been able to fix yet. Not only will they not make the playoffs, I see nothing that makes me think they can win any of the last 5 games.

I know the team is NOT putting the pieces together, but I don’t see why they CAN’T pull the pieces together. Dallas and Philly aren’t exactly juggernauts, and with more emotion and home field we can win those games. If we don’t then we’re done, but until that happens I’m not the kind of person that wants to be out front on the “their season is done” bandwagon so I can say “see I told you so” if they do lose. If we win the next two games we should beat Washington and Carolina, and that gets us ten and in. Will I predict it? Hell no. Will I predict 8-8 or 6-10? No, because I’ll be too depressed that I was right.

Since were talking playoffs lets talk about the last time the Giants looked like such a long shot to make the playoffs this late in the season.
Remember they were 6-6 and had had just come off back to back losses to the EXPANSION Texans and then they blew a two TD 4th quarter lead to the Titians at home to fall to 6-6.
Everybody thought they were done after those disasters, they needed to win there last four including a trip to Indy and at home against the first palce Eagles and get some outside help.
Ha ha I’m trying to think posative becasue I thought that team was done like this one going into December and they turned it around so who knows. I don’t see it this year but I did’nt see it in 02 and it happend so you never know.
