Giants Fall to Bears as Offense Invisible Again

 BEARS 29 - GIANTS 3 

Another week, another unwatchable effort for the New York Giants.

It has become commonplace of late here in the 2021-22 season as the Giants managed only one field goal, and finished the game with minus-10 yards passing in a 29-3 loss to the Chicago Bears.

It was the third time in the last five games that the G-Men failed to score a touchdown, and the fourth time in five weeks they failed to score more than 10 points.


Head Coach Joe Judge emphatically tried to defend his players after another dispiriting defeat:

"This ain't a team that is having fistfights on the sidelines. This ain't some clown show organization or something else," Judge said. "You talk about the foundation built. The toughest thing to change in a team, in a club, is the way people think. You understand that? That is the toughest thing. You can get new players. You can have your damn locker room all you want. You have to change how people think. You have to change how they  (BLEEP)ing believe in what you're doing. And they have to trust the process. And that is a lot easier said than done when they're looking up right now and you've got one game left and the most you can win is five this season.

"But I guarantee you this: Those men are going to walk in Wednesday and be ready to roll. We're going to practice hard on Wednesday, practice hard on Thursday and Friday. And we're going to play for each other when we get on the field next week."

Mike Glennon completed four of 11 passes for 24 yards. Because he was sacked four times for minus-34 years, the Giants finished with negative net yardage in the passing game.

The only real positive was Saquon Barkely breaking 100 yards rushing on the day for Big Blue.

The Giants fell behind early when Glennon was strip sacked by Chiacgo. The Bears quickly turned the gaff into points on the first of two rushing touchdowns for David Montgomery to give the Bears a 7-0 lead. They would never look back.

The Giants finish the season at MetLife Stadium next Sunday against Washington.

Jets, Dolphins and Patriots Playoff Breakdown

Here are the formuli that could get the Jets into and out of the playoff party this season: 1) If the Jets win against Seattle and Miami, they win the AFC East based on a better conference record (8-4) than the New England Patriots, even if New England wins out as well. 2) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins win out and finish at 11-5, the Jets would be 10-6, or 9-7, and probably out of the playoffs. Both New England and Miami would make the playoffs, with the Dolphins as a divison winner and the Patriots as a wild card. The Patriots make the postseason if Baltimore loses one of its final two games. 3) If the Patriots win out and the Dolphins and Jets split, then the Patriots win the AFC East. The Jets will have to hope that they beat Miami to win that tie-breaker and, further, hope that they have a better conference record than the Baltimore Ravens in order to clinch the sixth seed. 4) If the Patriots and Ravens win out and the Dolphins and Jets split their final two games, then ...

Francisco Lindor Remains Red Hot as Mets Top Phillies

 Francisco Lindor remains the hottest player in Queens right now.  The Mets shortstop blasted two more home runs, including a three-run blast in the bottom of the eighth inning, Monday night to help propel the Mets to a 5-4 win over Philadelphia.   Lindor who typically struggles in the month of April is putting together a heck of a month. Monday's two hit effort was the 10th game in the last 11 where Lindor has recorded a hit. In fact in the month of April alone this year, Lindor was hitting at .311 coming into Monday's action.  On the year, Lindor is batting .284 with five homers and 13 RBI.  Lindor's efforts proved to be prophetic, as the Phillies Alec Bohm crushed a three-run bomb off Edwin Diaz in the top of the ninth to cut the Mets lead to a single run. Fortunately for New York, Diaz was able to shut the door with strikeouts of Trea Turner and Bryce Harper.  New York (16-7) has now won five in a row.

Mets Keep Rolling into Phillies Series

 The New York Mets are feeling pretty good about things right now!  The Amazin's swept a four game series from the St. Louis Cardinals on Sunday, winning 7-4 Sunday afternoon. It was the first time since 1986 that the Amazin's had swept such a series from St. Louis. We all know what happened later that season.    Well, not to get too far ahead of ourselves, because the 2025 version now faces a very stiff challenge. The Mets will face their arch rivals the Philadelphia Phillies on Monday with only two games separating the two teams in the NL East.  The Mets took out Philly in the NLDS last October, so this figures to be a heck of showdown. The Mets begin a month long stretch against teams that are likely postseason contenders like the Phillies, D-Backs, Cubs, Yankees, Red Sox, and Dodgers.  If the Mets (15-7) are this good, we will know for sure in a month.
