Let’s start — one day after a rare, successful afternoon for the Giants, who won their first game in more than a month and earned some of the first drips of optimism of the season — with one of the lowest points in franchise history.

Think back two seasons, when Joe Judge’s fate hung in the air as Jake Fromm plunged his body forward.

The 2021-22 Giants, already eliminated from the playoff race, were playing out the string and just trying to survive the last week of a miserable season in front of a nearly nonexistent crowd at MetLife Stadium. Daniel Jones was missing his sixth straight game due to a neck injury. Fromm was getting a start because Mike Glennon already had lost the backup gig.

In the second quarter of a game the Giants trailed by three, they essentially chose to avoid a possibly humiliating turnover and instead accept outright humiliation. Pinned back inside their 5-yard line, Fromm ran a pair of quarterback sneaks as a means to clear a bit of space for the punt team, a full-on surrender by the offense and the offensive minds.
