The Giants aren’t exactly sure why, despite spinning their wheels, they keep getting the same negative results, but the team leaders are tired of it and are determined to get to the bottom of the problem.

Multiple team leaders have called for a players-only meeting to take place Monday in which the players are going to face each other in an attempt to figure out what’s at the root of the team’s 2-6 start.

“Get to the root of the problem, from a man to another man, we’re gonna figure this thing out,” said safety Jabrill Peppers when asked what the goal of the meeting is. 

“We still got a lot of football left. We just got to get on the ball right now.”

The meeting will consist of all 53 members of the roster and is expected to be a no-holds-barred type of session.

Peppers, one of several visibly frustrated players in the postgame locker room, said the most frustrating thing has been that the same issue seems to keep popping up week after week.

“That’s why this s–t sucks,” Peppers said. “We have to execute. It’s on us. It’s not on anybody but us, and we’re going to get that corrected. It’s been three weeks of the same thing. . . . Not coming out of the tunnel ready to play hard, having to fight our way in it, not making enough plays.”

Whether they find the answers remains to be seen.
