New York Giants headlines for Saturday
Good morning, New York Giants fans!
(Wilson) was 6-1 through his first seven games and at one point he was playing so well people were talking about Mike Tomlin for Coach of the Year. The biggest positive is that he absolutely can still throw the moon ball, which has been a staple of his game from the very beginning.
