If only they could play the Panthers every week, lol.

It wasnt until near the end of the 4th quarter of the Vikings-Giants game that I remembered that the Giant's had traded a 2nd round pick and signed Brian Burns to a huge contract.

He was nearly invisible. Maybe being the best player on a terrible defense doesnt translate as well as some people might think.

Vikings vs Patriots Super Bowl seems like a lock at this point of the season.

lol…. After watching that game live. They better be thinking that.

Also the Steelers should play all their games in Mercedes. Boswell would break every kicking record.

Ironically, the defensive front is one of the only real positive things for Giants fans but the Burns thing is a head scratcher when there were so many other needs on that roster.

Not every GM...

I wasn't clear that i was referencing only the Giants, that entire staff needs to go...especially the front office...awful

Well... 799.. I did the math. You're off by one point, asshole.

I would've never thought in a million years the Pats would win that game. Whoever bet on the Pats due to pure homerism is probably rolling in cash. And then will promptly lose it all next week...

I'll admit, I didn't think they'd win either

Im looking at the PFF grades and to put this in perspective: Bryce Young had a 32.6 PFF grade which is absolutely godawful in every way. The Panthers defense has 2 PFF grades even worse than that. Jordan Fuller was targeted 5 times and gave up 5 receptions for 116 yards. Based on Shy Tuttle's grade, I suspect the NT was losing almost every play.

Although I guess common sense suggests that pass rushers only matter if you aren't getting blown out. The Burns contract is a total misunderstanding of where their team is on offense more than anything.
