The G-Men have been one of the most disappointing teams in the NFL this season.
The New York Giants were expected to compete for an NFC East division title after posting their first double-digit (11-5) winning season in six years. That clearly didn’t happen, as Big Blue is one of the worst teams in the NFL in 2017. They have surrendered a franchise-worst 13 losses in a season.
Giants owners John Mara and Steve Tisch released a statement supporting head coach Ben McAdoo after an embarrassing Week 10 loss in San Francisco. Just three weeks later, Big Blue’s owners decided it was time to cut the cord on the McAdoo-Jerry Reese era in New York.
Suspensions, injuries, and a feud between an All-Pro safety and a 2016 first-round pick has made the G-Men the newest circus attraction in the Big Apple. While the Giants season has been filled with turmoil and disappointments, there have been a few bright spots for Big Blue.
Giants linebacker Mark Herzlich, who was nominated for the Walter Payton Man of the Year, will likely be the team’s only player up for an award this season. The Giants have not had many players step up in 2017.
But that won’t stop G-Men HQ from naming the team’s MVP, Rookie of the Year, and Defensive Rookie of the Year.
