The Giants don't even have a good QB or any of their good WR's playing this year. Brian Daboll is working with Saquon Barkley and a bunch of castoffs and beating division leaders like Tennessee and Baltimore. I also agree that momentum doesn't carry over year to year with a football team or any sports team. You are either talented enough and well coached enough to win consistently season over season and be a good team or you aren't.

I'd like to see Michigan work in Andrel Anthony more. I can't understand why a guy whose 6'2 and that athletic rarely gets targeted. Is there something I am missing here with Anthony? Is he going out and looking like a slug at practice? Why is a 6'2 wideout not a big play, jump ball guy or a goal line stud?

Historically speaking is what I was referring to. Good enough to beat the bad teams and bad enough to not beat anyone good is where we seem stuck at right now. I'm pleased to see the recent improvement and happy to see this team keep fighting for Campbell and not quitting. I think they are re-establishing what they want to be and finally developing a team identity. Over the past couple of weeks we have seen improvement from guys that weren't St. Brown and Okudah and improvement is what I've wanted to see week over week all season. Hutch, Kerby Joseph, and others on the defensive side of the ball have shown improvement. It'd be nice if this team could find some balance and consistency from week to week from here on out. Even if they don't win every week, knowing they played hard, young guys continue looking better and better, and Campbell is the reason we are winning games, not losing them.

I'd be interested in seeing what indicates they are the worst 6-2 team ever. They have two marquee wins this year of division leading teams, having beaten Baltimore and Tennessee. If the Giants went out and only padded their stats and got wins over bottom feeders I'd be inclined to believe that. But they have two big wins this season.

Did I not say it was a prove it game? Campbell won and proved he should continue on as a coach. If we had lost that game there would rightfully be more heat turned up on Campbell for losing to the Bears.

I mean great, he did was a coach is supposed to do, win games and not be talked about in a negative light in the end. He got his first road win ever as a Lions Head Coach. Were are in purgatory and simply have to ride this season out and wait until next year. We aren't good enough yet to beat anyone that's a good team and we aren't bad enough now to just stand around and cheer for the #1 overall pick. We are right back where we've frequently been as an organization and team, stuck in the middle, telling ourselves just wait until next year.

WOW!!!!!! Just like that we're tied.

Holmes didn't hire Dan Campbell though, so I think he deserves the opportunity to hire his guy and build a team.

Why does Campbell deserve to come back at this point? I'm having a real hard time seeing any improvement on this team.

Good God we're terrible on third down!

Good God we're terrible on third down! Republicans that is lol!

Damn, what a tackle by Hutch!!!

More good news for Katie Hobbs.

Another big L for the biggest loser of them all. I wonder what he's up to now as far as total wins and losses go?

More votes came in for Katie Hobbs. It seems down to Maricopa County and whether or not that will rescue Lake or make Hobbs the Governor.

Great cover of Dream On by Aerosmith . . .

If Mike Lawler says something bad about Trump or about someone Trump wants as Speaker or in leadership, Trump will just endorsed against Lawler and one of his goons will beat him in the primary. Peter Meijer faced that same challenge and lost to John Gibbs, a Trump-backed goon, in his primary. No reason to think Lawler is anymore special or different than Meijer.

I don't think being in a purple district helps. Peter Meijer was in a purple district and he lost to Trump-backed John Gibbs. Pennsylvania is a purple state as is Arizona now and we ended up with Doug Mastriano, Dr. Oz, and Kari Lake respectively as Trump-backed nominees in those states.

Why would a more moderate Republican stick their neck out and do something like that? They saw what happened to Liz Cheney and Peter Meijer. It is almost certain to be an automatic loss in the primary election to a MAGA, Trump-backed candidate. While Trump's power in a general election has evaporated, this election cycle still proved he has primary power.

Whoever was Fetterman's Campaign Manager should be teaching a class to Democratic Operatives and perspective candidates. That was a masterclass in messaging, branding, and hammering your opponent. They thoroughly took down Dr. Oz and made him look like a clown. As well, at least judging by the graphic above, it seems Fetterman did potentially perform better with white working class and rural areas. We will have to see what the county and precinct demographics look like. Fetterman joins a line of people in the Senate, including Tammy Baldwin, Raphael Warnock, and Sherrod Brown, that prove that progressive policies can win in swing states and red states. You don't always have to be the lite beer version of the GOP candidate and have a Sista Soulja moment. Fetterman (and Tim Ryan in Ohio) also show how the Democrats need to adopt a more populist, progressive message on the economy, Fetterman was relentless in railing against corporate greed driving inflation, raising the minimum wage, and taxing the wealthy. We needs Democrats all over the map who will campaign like John Fetterman, Tim Ryan, Sherrod Brown, Tammy Baldwin, and Raphael Warnock will on the economy. Populist progressivism wins!

This is a prove it game for me for Dan Campbell and the growth of this team. If they go out and lose to a Bears team that sold off pieces at the deadline then I think all the shine of the past week or so will have worn off. After losing, the calls by fans to turn up the heat on Campbell will be out in full force. The other thing a loss would do is kill the narrative that the first half of the season they just happened to face a tough schedule. You can't lose to a cupcake team like the Bears if you want to prove to fans you're any good and that you're improving as a team.
