Was the Giants win last year a fluke?  email this discussion to a friend?

sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football 4 years ago

I am a Giants fan and was thrilled with their win last year. However, I am also realistic and know my team. Is this something I should expect this year, meaning another win? Whose in this with me??

NFC is weak again. Giants probably have the best shot in the NFC to make it to the SB again. Until Romo wins his first playoff game, I'm not counting on the Cowgirls to go anywhere.


sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

I'll bet a million dollars the cowgirls won't go anywhwere. My concerns are the Pats as usual. The Giants have the make the case that they their win was not a fluke and that is a hard case to prove considering many did not think their win was warranted in the first place.

It's really hard for a team to repeat a Super Bowl win. After last night's game, I think they need a lot of work. Yes, they beat the 'Skins who were pathetic, but the lost their toughness in the second half. They could only get field goals after the first TD. They need to keep pouring it on, not rest on last year's glory. Go Giants.


sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

Oh yeah, alot more work is needed and the game showed that. That is the type of confidnece play I am worried about, them not be able to follow thru. They will get it together, question is will it be enough?


myLot reputation of 91/100. mcat19 (1074)   ranked 380 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

I sure hope they pull it together. They have a fabulous front line and a terrific defense; they just need to stay tough. Go Giants!!

Fluke would be a playoff win.... they won a superbowl. Big difference. Man up GMan fan....


sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

Yeah, but it takes a hell of a team to do it again. Some teams win a superbowl and you never hear from then again until like 10 years later. I do not want that to be the Giants.

The losses on defense really hurt. The Eagles and Cowboys are both better this year so I think it will be tough to repeat. They also probably have a tougher schedule as the better teams usually do. I don't know if it was a fluke but the odds of them repeating aren't very good. It doesn't seem like any team does that any more.

From the way they started last year, I was amazed at the final result. However, they really pulled together as a team near the end and got it done. As a Patriots fan (and a Redskins fan), the last thing I wanted to see was the Giants win anything.

As for this year, they have lost some key personnel to retirement, injuries, and trades. The mark of a good team, however, is the ability to overcome those losses and still put up some wins. It will certainly be interesting to see how this year unfolds.


sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

Yeah I am interested in seeing how the rest of this year plays out. They have gotten off to an ok start, but only time can tell. The Pats have been running things into the ground and it was time to see someone else win something for a change, but I respect the Pats franchise. They did their thing for the last few years.

Well i dont believe that it is something you should expect. cause if you expect it you get disappointed.. its what happend when the superbowl came on i said oh the pats definately got this.. and then by the end of it im disappointed .. I'm still a huge pats fan and no loss is ever going to change that but the giant making it and winning the superbowl definately was a run with luck and after losing a couple of very good players one of which was Michael Strahan they wont be the same


sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

Your right about expecting and getting disapointed. I don't know, and to be honest I do not have much confidence, been here before. The lost of Strahan was great, but I think that would open the door for some new blood which may or may not be a good thing.

I think they have a better shot then the cowboys. i am a saints fan and i think the saints have a shot to make it all the way if they don,t give up all the big plays like last year but i think the G man make the playoffs and the cowboys are out.


sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

Yay, thats what I like to hear. The Saints are ok in my book, but the cowboys have definetly seen better days. Won't be 2009.


myLot reputation of 52/100. wheresthefun (788)  4 years ago

i,m with you on that i hate the cowboys. i,m ready for something new like the saints in the superbowl


sumpter (81)   ranked 378 out of 461 in football  4 years ago

Hahaha, now let's just see about that.

Do you still think that the Giants were a fluke? They were definately the best team in the playoffs and had the hardest road with facing the Bucaneers, then the Cowboys, then the Packers, and finally the undefeated Patriots. A fluke is a lucky win against one of those teams but they beat all of those teams on to a Superbowl title. This year they are already 9-1 and beat everyone in their division.
