There’s noway a great team that’s coached up should be squeaking out 1 point wins vs the giants jets and jags….. get real dude

If we’re beating these teams by a FG or even a TD and clinging on to a small lead in the 4th quarter and stressing the defense to stop a comeback from a rookie QB with a shitty squad from beating you, how are we gonna do after week 3? The Ravens and Steelers will kick the shit out of us if we’re beating teams like the Jags and Jets by 3 points.

Frankly, I expect us to lose to the Giants in an embarrassing fashion as the team comes out overconfident and the coaches are ill prepared. Like it’s been pretty much every year for the past 4-5.

Right after all Fangio is 0-7 in September….. we’re pretty much guaranteed to start the year 0-3 with Fangio leading.

Wanna make a bet? We start 0-3, I leave the board forever. 1-2 or better, you do. Put your money where your mouth is.

Absolutely because lock gives us the big splash play’s. Do you think Hamler will be going deep for 60 yard bombs? Jeudy on those deep post? Sutton on 50 yard bombs where he goes up and just miss defenders? All these types of plays are non existent with teddy.

Teddys also going to get a lot of our wideouts blew up because te safeties are going to play close to the line of scrimmage. I hope they can stay healthy

No I’m not making goofy bets like that. However we can put some real money up. 100 bucks

Deal. Easiest 100 bucks ever.

I like K10H1 and his bad Lock opinions so I hope he stays here forever!

I’ll also take you up on this bet, if you’re willing!

Don't do this. I'm not sure I can bring myself to root for an 0-3 start.

After doing the wins/loss predictions, I do think Lock will get a shot in games late in the season. Denver is almost certainly going to win those first 3 games unless Fangio blows one with clock mismanagement or something - which will buy Teddy some leash when the inevitable painstaking losing skid happens.

If I had to predict a specific moment, I'll go with Lock taking over prior to the Detroit game after consecutive losses to DAL, PHI, KC and LAC ends any doubt about the fate of the year. My guess is we'll stick with Teddy no matter what past those division games. The schedule also mercifully lets up considerably at that moment too, offering an opportunity for Lock to go 3-2 (or even 4-1 if KC happens to rest all their starters as UR predicts) or so which should be fun full for the fanbois...

I don’t think you understand how razor thin the margins are in the NFL. The Giants played eight games against playoff opponents last year. They went 2-6. The average margin of victory was 7.1. Prior to being blown out at the end of the year by Cleveland and Baltimore, after reports of the team wanting to quit on Judge and yada, yada, they were 2-4 with an average margin of victory in those games being 4.8.

Good and great teams in the NFL absolutely do win one point games. The Giants beat the Seahawks by five last year. The Bucs beats the Giants by two.

Sure will. So it's a bet.
