Justin Tuck refuses to blame the New York Giants' woe-and-five start on quarterback Eli Manning and the team's struggling offense.
Even if the Giants QB straightens himself out by Thursday's game in Chicago -- another likely loss for 0-6 -- it will be far too little, way too late. Like the cops at a crime scene say, "Go home, folks, nothing to see here."
Only three of the NFL's five unbeaten teams could make it to five wins. Kansas City, New Orleans and Denver moved to 5-0 Sunday, while New England and Seattle finally lost.
Boomer and Craig got things started with the mess that is New York Football Giants, who watched Nicks Foles, not Michael Vick, lead Philadelphia's late surge - which actually makes matters somehow worse...
Manning couldn't fathom how his team could be keeping company with Jacksonville at the bottom of the standings.
Giants were leading 21-19 in third quarter, but then gave up 17 straight points to drop to 0-5 on the season.
You laugh now, but there was a time, very recently, when it was a debate. There was a time, when we thought the kid had commandeered the throne. There was a time when, when we thought it was the dawn of one empire, and the dusk of another.
It's expected that Beason will challenge Mark Herzlich for a starting spot at middle linebacker with the Giants once he learns the defensive scheme. The Giants rank 21st in overall defense.
For the Giants to save their season, their best player must rise above the mess around him. No one is questioning Manning's credentials, but his future is still up for debate.
Coach Tom Coughlin has a battered group heading into Sunday's game at MetLife Stadium, although he's not going to offer any excuses. He knows what is at stake and so do his players.
It has to happen Sunday against the Eagles, though. Already, just a quarter of the way through the schedule, the Giants are running out of chances.
Despite missing offseason workouts because of contract talks and sitting out the final two-plus weeks of training camp with a bruised heel, Cruz is putting up statistics that have him among the NFL's top receivers.
In a year where it appears the Giants have hit rock-bottom and the Jets look ready to slide off the map, Sanchez gets to sit back and bask in the realization that he had nothing to do with any of it.
"I gave him a chance to say something today, and I won't tell you what we said," Coughlin quipped. "I asked him if he wanted to fight."
"I believe we can go 12-0 from this point on," Rolle said Monday. "I truly believe that. ... People may look at me like I'm crazy, but you know, I couldn't really give a damn at this point."
The only thing that separates the New York Giants and the Philadelphia Eagles is Philly's surprise win over the Washington Redskins on opening day. While the G-men have dropped four straight to open the 2013 NFL campaign, the Eagles have dropped three in a row, including a 54-20 drubbing at the hands of the Denver Broncos last week. Both teams are focused on playing 60 minutes of football in Eagles coach Chip Kelly's first tilt in the Meadowlands.
This won't be a season of style points for the Giants. If they do happen to turn things around they know they'll have to take any break they can get, whenever they can get them.
It's one thing to lose four straight games. It's another thing to NOT HAVE WON a game. And it's yet another thing when you consider that the Giants haven't tasted any sort of victory since their preseason opener.
The New York Giants came into Sunday's away contest against the Kansas City Chief winless at 0-3 and just off the worst loss in head coach Tom Coughlin's tenure at the helm. Last week's 38-0 loss to the Carolina Panthers continued a downward spiral that has seen poor pass protection, turnovers and lack of a running game. Meanwhile, through three games the Kansas City Chiefs led the NFL with a (+13) turnover margin. KC linebacker Justin Houston lead the NFL with 7.5 sacks, so the matchups were potentially disastrous for New York. The Giants hung around early but turnovers and special teams ineffectiveness doomed New York as the Chiefs pulled away late for a 31-7 victory.
The last time this happened to Big Blue, they won only six games and missed the postseason entirely. Now there seems to be a gloomy feel of history repeating itself.
The Giants have started the season 0-4 for the first time since 1987 after losing the Chiefs on Sunday.
The resurgent Chiefs lead the NFL in turnover differential and sacks. None of that appears to be good news for the winless Giants, who are coming off their worst performance under coach Tom Coughlin.
With the offense coming off a shutout last weekend and two members of the O-line looking very doubtful for Kansas City on Sunday, New York Giants offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride is facing a major challenge.
Now that three days have passed since that 38-0 catastrophe in Carolina, the question must be asked. When, exactly, did the Giants turn into the Jets? Even more importantly, who's to blame?
After Sunday's loss, Giants coach Tom Coughlin told his players to stick together. Not everyone did. Receiver Hakeem Nicks complained about not being able to throw the ball to himself.
