The Giants could be in for a bloodletting

Win or lose, the Giants could be poised for another restructuring. Ownership thought the team would turn the corner this season and it did not happen. This means the Giants will have six losing seasons over the past seven and with little growth being displayed throughout the year, the club may not see a path forward with general manager Dave Gettleman and head coach Pat Shurmur.

However, a convincing win over the Eagles could change their minds. Doubtful, but you never know. Ownership may give Gettleman one more season and force Shurmur into making some changes to his style and his staff. Also a long shot. The consensus is they are seeking to get out in front of the NFL change curve and become leaders again rather than followers.
