There’s a saying in the NFL: “Film don’t lie.’’ 

Watch the Giants game film from the past two seasons, and then watch film of the Panthers games before Brian Burns was traded from Carolina to New York. 

Even in losing — and damn, there’s been soooo much losing — there’s a constant. 

That constant is Burns’ relentless play and off-the-charts production regardless of the circumstance, his team’s record, the score in the game, the weather, that day’s horoscope or anything else.
