I am still bummed out about the Skattebo injury

BH28 : 11/6/2025 5:46 pm
Normally, I'm pretty quickly over injuries as accepting they are part of the game, but this one weirdly still hurts.

It feels like it sucked all the life out of the team which is pretty incredible from a rookie RB AND the fact that we have an exciting rookie QB; the team still feels lifeless.

Anybody else feel this way still?
Yes, and the Nabers injury as well

both just such enjoyable players to watch in different ways. Sucks that we were robbed of that this year.
No

Holland, Adebo, and Flott

The whole team changed in the second half of Denver and the first half of the Eagles games.
I think we all are bud

It seems like the Giants are cursed with injuries to their good young skill players.
We may be getting Flott and Holland back this week - but not Adebo.

I just hope he can return in 26 & be the same player.
I hope he returns to form too.

Dis the NFL ever review Zack Baun's tackle of him? Any disciplinary action for the hip drop tackle?

They did and determined that it wasn’t a hip drop tackle, of course!
Absolutely. Skattebo was fun to watch over those weeks and

very productive. Imagine what happens when a player with talent is does his job and shows full-on effort (ahem...Banks, Thibs, Nubin).

Imagine if Dart had Nabers and Skatt each week. Now also imagine if Theo, Slayton, and Hyatt actually caught all those passes that hit them in the hands.

Iamgine.

Imagine if ownership cared enough to put a real, grass field in Metlife. Taken care of the best of the best.

Sure seems they care way more about their bottom line, not winning.

He's a big loss

He was one of the best red zone weapons I've seen. Run or pass his ability to break the first tackle is invaluable in condensed areas. I would conserve his middle of the field touches and maximize his red zone touches going forward if he's close to the same.
Definite knockout punch for our offense

and by extension, the team. Sucks.
Yes

He was the most passionate young player I have seen in the league in a very long time and he is no our team. Absolutely crushed me.
Nut up

and grow a set .. JFC...
Yes 100%

Skattebo is a special player and his energy and enthusiasm is unmatched. Skat was also becoming nationally known and it was making the Giants relevant.

The season was fun while he was playing, now it’s a drag.
yes and

I'm worried sick that he's not going to have the same explosiveness when he comes back. That injury was brutal.
Moved on already  
Spider43 : 11/6/2025 10:21 pm : link
We're on to Chicago, my man.

Actually afywr watching the footage, they awarded the Eagkes a compensatory pick for the stress they caused them.
