Pick Analysis. New York Giants. 2. East. player. 31. Scouting Report. NFC

All five boroughs aren’t going to like this, but listen up. Your New York Football Giants are starting to get a little weird, like the stuff your older male relatives say and do around the holiday season. We know you have a rich history, but face it. You’re not the Green Bay Packers, you’re not the Pittsburgh Steelers. Heck, you’re not even the New York Yankees in your same metro area.

It’s time to embrace a slight, ever so subtle change to how you do things. Surely, the oldest fan base in the NFL will have a freaking conniption fit if you try to change anything whatsoever about this football team. But when you’re looking more dysfunctional by the year than those Jet-y New York Jets you share a stadium with, it’s time to re-evaluate who and what you are as a brand.

Y’all were crap between Frank Gifford and Bill Parcells and everybody knew it. With Eli Manning gone and seemingly a younger carbon copy of him taking over in Daniel Jones, maybe a slight tweak to the logo or uniform would go a long way. It will show the world you’re trying and aren’t beholden to a past that’s overrated in the eyes of most outside of The Big Apple.

Maybe you go back to the Phil Simms/Parcells look with GIANTS on the helmet. Keep the color scheme because we love the color scheme, but you have to do something because what you’ve done for the last decade hasn’t exactly moved the needle. Jones can run AND throw! Let it be his team and not another cog in the machine that is growing more obsolete by the nanosecond.
