The Giants now fall to 0-2 and last in the NFC East.

This is what happens to losing organizations. Organizations that don't know how to win and find ways to lose #giants

James Bradberry makes a 1/20 jump route for INT and the #Giants decide to run run third and long FG. That’s coaching not to lose. That’s ultimately exactly where they lost this game. By not playing to win, they lose. And ask yourself who that’s on. OC? Prob not. Sickening

@Giants #Giants #NYGiants Bad coaching on both offense & defense; bad play calling, especially playing safe on offense with 2 minutes to go on the Washington 20 yard line knowing that Washington QB #TaylorHeinicke is having a great night. Arguably, Giants need new coaches & GM.
