Missing Playoffs Would Allow Giants To Rebuild
in response to reader comment: Expectations

Submitted by Battfist, Dec 19, 2007 17:54

I agree with most of what Turkish said. To say this team needs to rebuild is what I would expect to hear from Ron Jaworski, crap.

Before the injury bug hit- this team was playing beyond expectations. The injury that might have put the nail in the coffin on this teams playoff chances/run is the injury to back-up running back D. Ward. He is a lot better than I realized.

To strip this team down would be a major blunder. Should there be changes...sure. But nothing major-maybe bring in a new OC. Lets give the organization credit-a good team was put together this year. Injury s have caught up to this team. I beg to differ with SMith here...the Giants wont make the playoffs.
