Giants Fans Continue to Prove They’re the Dumbest in Football

Saquon Barkley arrived at MetLife Sunday and immediately saw idiots in Giants gear burning his jersey. Giants fans have to be the dumbest people in the world, and this has to be the dumbest thing you can do. First they fire him up, and second they still have zero idea why they’re actually mad at him. The organization decided to pay Daniel Jones, who got benched in the 4th quarter, and not the running back who ran for 176 yards in only three quarters:
What’s it like seeing former “fans” burn your jersey in person?

How can that fanbase not get it through their skull this wasn’t Saquon’s fault? This was always on the organization. This is how dumb people are today. We watched the entire thing play out. It was unprecedented access. There weren’t GMs and agents playing the source game with reporters. You didn’t have to weed through the bullshit and wonder what the real story was because the entire situation was laid out to us on Hard Knocks.
How can you be mad he went to a division rival, and put “Traitor” on your jersey when your GM laughed in John Mara’s face after he said he would have a tough time sleeping at night if Saquon became an Eagle? –

This would be like your wife leaving you because you’re a pathetic, unemployed loser who just sits on the couch all day instead of trying to find a job. Then you get mad at her when she finds someone else more successful who makes her happy.
The Giants could’ve paid Saquon and kept him if they wanted to. There is no one to blame but their own organization. Do you fault a guy for wanting to get out of a shitty marriage when he saw the writing on the wall?
Jason Kelce said it perfectly:
For the life of me, I don’t understand why Giants fans hate Saquon for what happened, and not the Giants organization for the fact he is an Eagle. They have absolutely no one to blame other than the Giants ownership and management decisions for why he is no longer a Giant.… https://t.co/qnyTeLRJT1

“For the life of me, I don’t understand why Giants fans hate Saquon for what happened, and not the Giants organization for the fact he is an Eagle. They have absolutely no one to blame other than the Giants ownership and management decisions for why he is no longer a Giant. Obviously understand their hate of the Eagles, and desire for him not to succeed, just very odd this energy is directed at him more so than the organization…”
The ironic part is Saquon could’ve run for 200 yards, but instead didn’t want to rub it in the organization’s face:
“Let the other guys EAT!”

He’s a better man than me. If they go low, we go lower. How do you let a dude with this much character, who is amazing at football, leave the team?
