The 2020 NFL season ended in disappointment for the New York Giants after narrowly missing out on a division title and playoff berth despite a hard-fought victory over the Cowboys in Week 17. Nevertheless, last season was a step in the right direction for the Giants, who have been stuck in mediocrity (or worse) since

Giants rookie quarterback Daniel Jones burst onto the national scene on Sunday in his first regular-season NFL start. Completing 23 of 36 passes for 336 yards, two touchdowns and a 112.7 passer rating. Jones also added a couple of running touchdowns to his already impressive stat line. The heir to Eli Manning’s throne looked more

“If Dwayne Haskins, as an African American, goes to Duke and puts up those mediocre stats, seventh in the conference, he’s not drafted day one or day two.” I won’t mince words — it is a travesty that the New York Giants drafted Daniel Jones at No. 6 in the 2019 NFL Draft. I know

Odell Beckham Jr. is a Giant, through and through. The trade talks surrounding the controversial figure, although they stem from a slightly warranted place, should come to an end as the offseason goes on. Assuming he returns to the shape he was in before he got injured — as one of the top receivers in

Look, let’s get one thing clear. It wasn’t about Geno Smith. It wasn’t about Davis Webb. It wasn’t even really about Eli Manning. It was, and has always been, about Ben McAdoo. When news of the New York Giants benching Manning came out Tuesday, it sent a shockwave through the league and media. The 2-9

I am a New York sports fan. Always have been, always will be. I think that’s pretty evident if you look back at every Sports Authority column I’ve ever written. I have blind faith in my teams, even when they have done nothing to earn it. The Giants beating the Patriots in Super Bowl XLII?

Residents of New York City are not particularly known for their patience. The city never sleeps, and many people are active at all hours of the night. The energy of the city can be seen in everyday actions, but it is especially noticeable during professional sporting events. The 7 Line Army supports the New York

Over the last two years, New York Giants receiver Odell Beckham Jr. has captivated fans across the NFL. His physical skills are undeniable, and he’s made the one-handed catch an expectation rather than a luxury. Simply put, he has the tools to be one of greatest, if not the greatest, receivers to ever play the
