How do you purge a 40-0 loss to a division rival in the season opener at home from your psyche and system?
This is what the Giants face this week as they try to turn the humiliating blowout home loss to the Cowboys Sunday at MetLife Stadium into a speck in their rearview mirror.
The players, whose nerves are still raw from how the loss to Dallas went down, took the field after head coach Brian Daboll stood before them in his weekly team meeting and delivered specific instructions on how to handle the week. “Everybody’s got a little edge to them,” Shepard said. “That’s what you want to see after a loss like that. I’ve seen it go both ways, and the way everybody attacked today’s practice is the way that we should. We understand that we’ve got some stuff that we have to correct and correct fast and I feel like everyone is doing that.”
“It was a good day for us energy-wise,” safety and team captain Xavier McKinney said. “I thought the focus and intensity was good. We’ve got a bad taste in our mouths right now., you don’t ever want to feel like that again. So, we do have that intensity, that edge to us for sure.”Sterling Shepard, fielding a punt during practice, said the Giants have to have “a short memory” and rebound from their ugly loss to the Cowboys in Week 1.
