Part 7/10:
Anyone familiar with NFL dynamics understands that no game is truly "must-win" until the entire season hinges on it. However, given the Giants’ dire position—2-7 record, ongoing losing streak, and public criticism—the game against the Bears takes on a near-elimination feel. A win would at least stem the bleeding temporarily and provide a sliver of hope for the remainder of the season.
The analysts stress that winning can serve as an emotional reset, quieting the outside chatter and rebuilding a sense of belief within the team. Still, the ultimate challenge is consistency. If the Giants lose again or show signs of disinterest, the chances of further upheaval, including a coaching shakeup, increase dramatically.
