+5500
Now is when we see whether the Giants’ season is more than just a feel-good story. Nobody expected first-year coach Brian Daboll to orchestrate such a quick turnaround, with New York returning to the postseason for the first time since 2016. The former Bills offensive coordinator turned Daniel Jones into a potential franchise quarterback, while defensive coordinator Don “Wink” Martindale got the most out of an inexperienced and banged-up unit. The Giants are still a season or two away from being legitimate Super Bowl contenders, but they can take pride in knowing they’ve found the right coach. The next step is adding the type of players Daboll wants to build around.
