This BBV article series published in early Sept (2023) concluded that the Giants had probably closed or come close to closing the talent gap in the NFC East, outranking the Cowboys but not the Eagles. As it concluded:
"So, let’s tally all the scores up and see how the division shakes out:
Eagles: 36 points Giants: 35 points Cowboys: 32 points Commanders: 17 points"
Were we totally delusional or was it just injuries and bad luck?

Mix of delusion and bad luck, this team has some very good core pieces in sexy dexy, AT, Thibs, banks, Hyatt, etc. imo in terms of pure talent regardless of position sexy dexy and AT are 2 top 5 players in the division but in terms of having lots of talented players, we lack in that category.
But this year we expected Daniel jones and offense line to take a step forward from last year. That didn’t happen, in fact it seems they took a major step back.
Factor in injuries to core players on offense, a brutal starting schedule loaded with multiple primetime games and shortened weeks
While a lot of the article is just hyped up garbage, there is some truth there.
One big issue for the Giants is that they are best at the least impactful positions and worst at the most important.
Inside Linebackers: Giants best Interior Defensive line: Giants best
Quarterback: Giants worst Wide receiver: Giants worst Offensive line: Giants worst
Delusional. Just like our scouting and talent acquisition staff.
