New York Giants at Los Angeles Chargers: Game Info, Odds, Notes, and More

The final weeks of the regular season are supposed to be when a team begins playing its best ball to show growth in its development.
The Giants? The 2021 season can't end soon enough. They haven't been healthy all year. The questions about the coaching staff and the quarterback still linger. The general manager is likely on his way out. And ownership is going to have to once again answer to the angry customers who were expecting (and deserve) a helluva lot better than what they've gotten.
The Giants are a mess, and quite frankly, even if they pull off an upset against the Los Angeles Chargers, so what? This team is headed for a teardown of sorts in the off-season--they can't possibly continue with the same roster.
To some, it matters to the point where they've checked out and are doing other things on a Sunday. To those of you who are in it for better or for worse, be sure to keep it here at Giants Country, where in addition to our gameday thread open to registered users to discuss the game as it unfolds, and we will have complete postgame coverage.
