MNF: Eagles vs. Giants (Draft order implications) Game Thread!

Josh McCown sighting

Looks like all the booing by the fans paid off.  Maybe the jets should try that?

Man the Giants are gonna clean house something fierce. Basically nobody but Barkley and Jones because they just took him so high is safe.... gonna be a long time until this team is even sniffing .500

I really hate that both teams don't get at least 1 shot in OT. 

[RonaldJet]

Impressive by Wentz, but terrific play calling in the 2nd half by Pederson. How can Douglas watch that game and think Gase is a good coach?

Eagles fans are the worst. If the Jets won the Super Bowl you wouldn’t hear one negative thing from me for at least 5 years.

Some Jet fans are the worst.

[Joe W. Namath]

Jets needed to lose yesterday and come back and win.

Giants needed to lose today and blow the lead and lose.

It never ends.....

You haven’t seen their last two drafts, huh?

I know it sounds crazy saying this about a two win team, but they have some good young players on their roster.

Gettleman has really screwed the pooch in FA though.

The Leonard Williams trade is looking better and better!

Me looking at that high 3rd rounder in 2020:

I agree the Giants biggest issue is coaching. Shurmur is worse than Gase and that’s saying something.

Where was Leo the Disruptor?

That Eagles win keeps Philly from leapfrogging the Jets in the Draft order and also moves that Giants 3rd round pick higher for Leo Williams.  This was a good outcome for the Jets, even if it likely locks the Giants into a Top 2 pick.

Right now the Jets have the Giants' 66th pick in the Draft.  That's a great spot to find a starting OG prospect or a WR in a very deep Draft.

Eli Manning is now below .500 for his career

Giants defense is TERRIBLE, and they showed it. They can't run, Eagles killed them throwing outside & moving the pocket. You could just see a 2 win team fold like a cheap suit on the road. 

Same game as Giants vs Cowboys, Giants hang for a half then the D is done. 

[New York Mick]

Etrz is a beast and the Eagles desperately need a WR. Last night their top 4 receivers were 3 TEs and a RB. 

[Apache 51]

F-the Manning family & Dallas Sucks!

[kdels62]

After Cooper and maybe Odell, Robby is the best upcoming FA WR. He’s gonna get paid if he hits the open market. Eagles, Jets, Pats, Dolphins, Raiders, Cowboys, Browns, Texans, Colts and probably more will be looking for WRs.

ATM Jets are 9th in the draft order.  Go Jets!

NFC East should not be allowed in the playoffs this year - there are better teams

 

edit to provide perspective; 

4 of 7 other divisions have teams in 3rd place who would lead the NFC East

7 of 7 other divisions have teams in 2nd place who would lead or tie for lead in NFC East

Random observation - our black uniforms are better than the Eagles.  And this coming from someone who thinks our unis suck ass.

It is what it is.

Just a reminder, in 2010 Seahawks had a losing record and beat Drew Brees in the WC game (Beast mode game)

the exception does not prove the rule and it's something that can (and should) be changed, look at how the CFP has improved the National Championship vs a popular vote...

a 10 win team will miss the playoffs and another will have to travel to Philly or Dallas to play an undeserving team
