New York Giants: How To Watch Giants vs. Los Angeles Rams Regular-Season Game 6
The New York Giants' 2021 season is hanging by a thread.
Coming into this week with a 1-4 record, a loss at home to the Los Angeles Rams would be a major fatal blow to a Giants team that had dreams of dancing in the postseason playoff tournament at the start of the year.
Now? The Giants are bruised and battered. They've lost key players for the season, including linebacker Blake Martinez and offensive linemen Nick Gates and Shane Lemieux. They're entering this weekend's game against the Rams without running back Saquon Barkley or receiver Kenny Golladay.
And while quarterback Daniel Jones made a miraculous recovery from what looked like a scary-looking head injury last week, he might very well have to function this week behind yet another offensive line combination that would see Matt Peart at left tackle and Nate Solder at right tackle if left tackle Andrew Thomas's foot is still an issue.
Was it mentioned that the Rams offense doesn't have any visible weaknesses and is facing a Giants defense that sounds like it's going back to basics to try and right the ship?
But there's a reason why you line up and play the game, right? And who knows? Perhaps the 2011 Super Bowl team, which, at one point during that magical season, looked like it was about to implode, will bring a little of that magic and fire for the 2021 team to use.
If not, it's going to be yet another long afternoon.
