Phil Simms is the first to admit he got it wrong about the Giants.
Completely wrong.
“The fact that I picked them to be one of the favorites to go to the Super Bowl? Well, that tells you what you need to know about my predictions,” the former Giants quarterback said during a telephone interview Thursday.
But even Simms couldn’t have imagined that things would spiral out of control this badly. The Giants are 1-7 after a 51-17 drubbing by the Rams at home and now are dealing with the fallout from anonymous quotes from two players suggesting that coach Ben McAdoo has lost the team.
