The polls admittedly are unscientific and wouldn’t qualify as an official statistic or representative sample size. But nevertheless, there was something instructive about the results, even if the impromptu questions posed on Twitter were nothing more than an effort to take the temperature of Giants fans heading into Sunday’s game against the Redskins.

The question was simple: Do you want the Giants to win or lose?

The answers were stunning. In one poll, 82 percent of respondents hoped the Giants would lose.
