The New York Giants find themselves in a precarious position at the halfway mark of the season, holding a 2-7 record after suffering their fourth consecutive loss to the Washington Commanders. With eight games remaining, the team is in dire need of a miraculous turnaround to keep playoff hopes alive.
Despite having talented players and showing effort under coach Brian Daboll, inconsistency and a lack of scoring have plagued the Giants. They have scored just 14 touchdowns this season, averaging a mere 15.4 points per game, which is among the lowest in the league.
Defensively, the Giants have excelled with a league-leading 35 sacks, but their offense struggles to find rhythm. Key injuries have also hampered their performance, and with tough opponents ahead, the Giants face an uphill battle to salvage their season.
