4 harsh truths Giants fans have to accept after Week 9 collapse against 49ers

The New York Giants lost their third straight game in Week 9, falling 34-24 to the San Francisco 49ers. Shane Bowen's defense surrendered 30-plus points for the third straight game, and any semblance of promise or optimism Giants fans had is officially gone without a trace.

Rookie quarterback Jaxson Dart played relatively well once again, throwing for nearly 200 yards with three total touchdowns, but nobody around him did enough. The offense clearly misses both Cam Skattebo and Malik Nabers, and Mike Kafka's unit, without its stars, is becoming borderline unwatchable.

There are no playoffs in the future for Big Blue, yet head coach Brian Daboll and general manager Joe Schoen are going to have to do whatever's necessary to save their jobs before Tuesday's trade deadline.
