Let’s preface this by saying that the Washington Football Team is in no position to talk down on another franchise. Since the year 2000, they have just five winning seasons, five playoff appearances and three division titles.

While that’s embarrassing by itself, Washington, under the not-so watchful eyes of owner Dan Snyder, has been a perpetual laughingstock off the field.

We hate to remind fans of that reality, but we needed to get that out of the way before we come down on the New York Giants, whose fans are so fed up with the team’s extended run of mediocrity that they’ve finally stopped romanticizing their two Super Bowl titles in 2007 and 2011.

We know what you’re thinking. What beef could we possibly have with the lowly G-Men? There was no bad blood before Sunday, right?

You’d be correct.

However, after his team’s latest humiliating defeat, Joe Judge went on an 11-minute rant purporting faith in New York’s foundation and rebuild. During said rant, the second-year coach mustered the gal to take shots at Washington.

Joe Judge took aim at the Washington Football Team after the Giants’ latest embarrassing loss.

The saddest part of Judge’s diatribe…which have become all too familiar for Giants fans amid the team’s 4-12 campaign? He started it off by referencing the near fist-fight between Jonathan Allen and Daron Payne in Week 16 and implying that Washington is “some clown show organization.”

"“This ain’t a team that is having fistfights on the sidelines. This ain’t some clown show organization or something else,” Judge said. “You talk about the foundation built. The toughest thing to change in a team, in a club, is the way people think. You understand that?”“. . . You can get new players. You can have your damn locker room all you want. You have to change how people think. You have to change how they f—ing believe in what you’re doing. And they have to trust the process. And that is a lot easier said than done when they’re looking up right now and you’ve got one game left and the most you can win is five this season.”"

Ah yes, the old deflect blame on another franchise to make your own failures seem less significant. That’ll definitely make fans forget that the Giants own the fourth-worst record (52-92) in the NFL since 2013. If you bumped that up to 2017, the Giants are tied for the worst record in the league at 22-58.

If you thought the quote was nauseating, wait until you watch just two minutes of Judge’s overextended defense mechanism.

Don’t say we didn’t warn you.

Anyone else’s ears bleeding?

Since Judge took over at the start of last season, New York is 10-22. They’re 4-12 this campaign despite spending $157.45 million in free agency last offseason. This past Sunday vs the previously five-win Bears, Judge’s Giants posted a minus-10 net yards passing, the lowest by any team since 1998.

Want us to continue? The Giants failed to score a touchdown for the third time this year and the third time in their last five contests. Over their last seven games, they’ve scored 72 points (10.3 per) and are averaging last than a touchdown per game across the last five weeks of action.

Under Judge’s tutelage, New York has lost by more than 25 points three times, two coming this season; Week 17 vs the Bears and Week 6 vs the Rams. Of his 22 losses as the Giants’ head coach, 14 have been of the double-digit variety.

But sure, go ahead and call out Washington because two of the team’s defensive leaders got into it on the sidelines in the middle of a blowout loss. We suppose he missed Jalen Ramsey throw a jab at teammate Taylor Rapp ON the field while the Rams were struggling to put away the undermanned Ravens on Sunday?

It’s the NFL. Stuff like that isn’t uncommon.

Judge has uncorked rants similar to this after every loss this season. We’re not sure what convinced him to babble on for over 10 minutes in this instance, but if Sunday’s show didn’t prove he’s in over his head, we’re not sure what will.

With that said, we hope he signs a lifetime extension with NYG in the offseason, because he clearly knows what it takes to build a winner.

Next. Washington vs Giants odds and prediction. dark
