Week Thirteen 2014: Giants at Jaguars

Giants suck. They suck so much that I wanted to just put that first sentence down as my entire post this week. But I thought about it, and I decided that I ain't goin' out like that. Instead I'm gonna let my friends from Seinfeld tell my story... (cue bass slappin')

I had all the confidence in the world that the Giants would win this game.

Could you blame me? The Jags stink and the Giants were long overdue for a win.

When the game started, I wasn't disappointed. The Giants came ready to play.

As the game went on, I got more and more happy with the Giants playing. 

Even when the Jags even scored a field goal in the second quarter, I wasn't worried at all.

Towards the end of the first half, my confidence level was dangerously close to smug.

When halftime arrived, I was excited that Big Blue was gonna get their fourth win.

At the start of the second half, I was just as confident as ever.

Even when Eli fumbled the ball and the Jags recovered it for a touchdown, it didn't bother me.

After a missed field goal by Josh Brown, Blake Bortles hit Marqise Lee for a thirty yard score, and it dawned on me that this game is far from over.

Then, Larry Donnell fumbled the ball, and that was returned by the Jags for a touchdown. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. 

The G-Men started to put together a scoring drive, but it stalled and the Giants had to settle for a field goal to give themselves a two point lead.

That two point lead wasn't enough as Bortles made the Giants defense look foolish and drove his team into field goal range. With twenty three seconds left, the Jags took a one point lead.

With a half-minute left, the Giants had the ball. But their last drive played out like the rest of the second half. Eli was under a huge amount of pressure, and a fumble was forced. Jags recovered. Game over.

This game was the worst of the season. Yes, worse than the loss to the Eagles. The fact that this game was essentially meaningless and it still drove me nuts is a testament to how infuriating the Giants played.

I have no idea what's going to happen to this team in February. Honestly, I don't even know if I care about what happens after this awful season is over.

So What Have I Learned?

The Giants suck.  The only thing we have to look forward to as Giants fans is a high draft pick come spring time.
