There was plenty of beautiful noise from the Giants this season, but the end came with a dull thud.
The Giants on Saturday night were ushered out of the playoffs — rudely and decisively — to pull the curtain down on a season of rebirth and revitalization. The time will come soon enough to look back and assess the progress the franchise made in Brian Daboll’s first year as a coach, but for now, the sting of getting blown out by the rival Eagles 38-7 at raucous Lincoln Financial Field is the immediate irritation after a game that was never close.
The end of the road and elimination from the playoffs is never pleasant for any team and the Giants certainly believed they had what it takes to advance deeper and keep their season alive for at least one more week. That belief did not translate into action.
