Alright, here we go again. The New York Giants are in a full-blown crisis mode, and they need someone to come in and bail them out of their misery. One college football analyst might just have the golden ticket to their resurrection. Enter Shedeur Sanders. Picture this: a dynamic rookie quarterback with a cannon arm and a legendary football pedigree blending with $29 million worth LSU wideout Malik Nabers, that’s ready to flip the script on Big Blue’s miserable performance.
On December 12th, the outspoken media-maestro Colin Cowherd dropped a bombshell on his podcast. ‘Herd with Colin Cowherd’ that had football Twitter buzzing. “I love finding when Vegas misses on a team’s personnel,” Cowherd declared, man’s really don’t want to see the Raiders winning, lol. Then came the money shot: “If the Giants land Shedeur Sanders, they are one of two teams right now that I would say would be a surprise team next year.” So, Cowherd’s saying that Shedeur Sanders could be the missing piece to the Giants’ puzzle.

Colin didn’t stop there, he conducts in-depth analysis on Giants miserable roster, breaks down what the Giants need like a surgeon: “They need a right tackle, they need a corner, and they’ve got to get somebody beyond their Malik Nabers. They just don’t get any tight end production at all.” With Shedeur playing upfront with Malik Neighbors and a few pieces on defense and O-line, the Giants could transform from zero to hero overnight. They need QB now, more than ever before..
Let’s keep it a buck – the Giants have been trash since Eli Manning rode off into the sunset. Their quarterback situation? More painful than stepping on a LEGO. Daniel Jones, the guy finessed a mind-blowing 4-year, $160 million contract. He has been serving up performances so bad they’ve demoted him to third-string faster than you can say “contract bust”. This season, the man’s thrown for just over 2,000 yards with 8 touchdowns and 7 picks. Tommy DeVito as your starter? Look, everybody loves Tommy Boy, but we all know he ain’t cut for that. That’s like bringing a plastic spoon to a gunfight. They need fresh faces around the block. Who else is better than Deion Sanders’ heir?

Can Shedeur Sanders rescue the Giants’ sinking ship?
Look, we all know who and what Shedeur Sanders is. The college football OG who’s been dropping dimes like he’s playing Madden on rookie mode. This season, he led Colorado to a fire 9-3 record, snagging the Johnny Unitas Trophy with a mind-blowing stat line: over 3,100 yards, 31 touchdowns, and only just 3 picks. The kid’s not just playing football; he’s conducting an orchestra on the field. Shedeur Sanders, combined with Malik Nabors, and 2 offense draft picks could flip the script for the Giants offense and that could make them low-key relevant.
But here’s the twist – Deion Sanders has some other plans for his son, Shedeur. Deion Sanders has been publicly courting the Las Vegas Raiders. “You are truly the best,” Sanders praised Anthony Peirce before luring him with a proposition. “Now I just need for you to do one thing. I need you to draft those Sanders boys.” Talk about family goals with a football twist! Anyway, this ain’t college football to pick players as they wish. The Raiders are 3-10, whereas the New York Giants are 2-11, if the New York Giants hold their position strong by tanking. They got themselves a franchise quarterback who can take them to their former glory.
