Slouching Towards Passaic: A Giants Preview (with bonus game thread that will illustrate many points!)

Before I get into the meat of the preview I would like to say that anything positive typed below should be offset by the fact that the schedule begins with Commies, Cowboys, Chiefs, Chargers, Saints, Eagles, Broncos and Eagles again.

Your 2025 Jets Preseason Post, presented by Wumbo Wednesday
