You ask, we answer. The Post is fielding questions from readers about New York’s biggest pro sports teams and getting our beat writers to answer them in a series of regularly published mailbags. In today’s installment: the Giants. Why on earth did (Dave) Gettleman want Pat Shurmur to win that Redskins game? Chase Young will haunt …

Not since the days of creamsicle uniforms have the Tampa Bay Buccaneers been such a must-see. Tom Brady changing teams headlined the craziest offseason of player movement in NFL history and completely changed the lens through which the coming season is viewed. All the matchups have been known since the minute the 2019 regular season …

We already knew the Giants, based on 2019 records, have the seventh-easiest 2020 schedule in the NFL, facing opponents with a winning percentage of .482. For what that’s worth. Now we know the order of the opponents, and it certainly doesn’t look very easy. Week 1 Steelers Sept. 14, 7:15 p.m., ESPN Well now, isn’t …

It is never a bad idea to bring in a player with strong knowledge of the new offensive system, and that is what the Giants did Tuesday, claiming quarterback Cooper Rush off waivers from the Cowboys. Rush spent the past three years in Dallas, making this a …

It will not be easy. Eli Manning, later in his Giants tenure, had to come to grips with learning different offenses and acclimating to new head coaches.

As quarterback transitions go, the 2019 Giants season, from a personality-meshing standpoint, was a success. These situations are never perfect, though, and as Manning looks ahead, he sees …
