Don't look now, but the NY Giants have won two games in a row after their thrilling 10-7 defeat of the Patriots on Sunday. I don't call it thrilling because of the game play by both teams, it was thrilling because it came down to a missed field goal by the Patriots at the end that would have sent the game into overtime.
With the Vikings loss last night, it only puts the 4-8 Giants two games out of the wildcard spots with five games left. However, two of those five games are against the Eagles.
That could be ugly.
With the team possibly on the rise, there was also a player that is on the rise that can get them where they need to go as well.
Jalin Hyatt finally showed why the Giants drafted him in the third round and why they were considering him a number one guy.
Hyatt made some eye-catching grabs and reeled in 5 of them for 109 yards. His first 100-yard game of his career and that's with an undrafted rookie QB.
Yesterday I got a mail day from my Twitter friend @ErichWalter that included some new Hyatts for my collection since I barely have any.

Not sure what this parallel is called from Mosaic, but it's /80
Thanks again to Eric for the mail day!!
Well, I won't be able to watch the Giants since they are on a bye this week, but I will be certainly rooting against the teams ahead of them in the wild card chase.
Then I will be ready the following Monday night when they take on the Packers. They haven't won a Prime Time game in so long I think it's time.
I'd wish you and the Giants luck on securing one of those WC spots... but the Packers and Hawks are right in the middle of the hunt as well. Although... it's hard to imagine anyone outside of the Eagles and 49ers making it to the NFC Championship game.
ReplyDeleteIt won't be an easy road but I am hopeful. If they lose to the packers next week it is over
